March 24, 200422 yr Any news on failures, much like the original PIC767; maybe the 747 if not the NG?-Paul
March 24, 200422 yr >Hi Robert,>>what about the little anomalies with the hold pattern entrys.>Are they fixed?>>Best regards,>>Jorge NinyYeap, that would be a great fix if it could be implemented on the 800/900.By all means this is a wonderfull upcoming upgrade and even with the above list of posted items I will be more than just a happy flightsimmer.Thumbs up !Kyprianos Biris :-cool[link:avsim.com/greece/hvacc]Hellenic vACChttp://vateud.org/images/vatsim-eurs.gifhttp://vatsim.pilotmedia.fi/statusindicato...tor=OD1&a=a.jpg Hellenic vACC - Olympic Aegean Virtual Prepar3D 5.3 | CPU i9 10900K | VGA: RTX 3070 | RAM: 32GB DDR4 | Monitor: 3440x1440
March 24, 200422 yr "I think it is only relevent for flaps 30-40"Correct! If the flaps are at 30 or 40, they will automatically move to the next setting (However, if at 40, they won't move to 25).after that has been programmed, perhaps we can look at the automatic extension of the LE slats when a stall is approached ;-)Cheers.Ian.
March 24, 200422 yr Wow! That's an impressive list. I'm certainly anxiously awating the release. :-jumpyI'm especially glad to see this item:8) Updated overhead panel to make it "undockable" for users of multiple monitors.That will really make life much easier.Thanks PMDG!
March 24, 200422 yr Hi I am new to PMDG and after the troubles with a certain Airbus 320/330 and compatability with FS9 I was contemplating buying the B737 600/700 NG package. Would it be a better idea to wait for the release of the 800/900 and then purchase. It would save on upgrade costs and I suppose get a better product being wholly compatible with FS9.MikeLiverpool UKBAV Captain
March 24, 200422 yr Hello and welcome Mike, Short answer is no. You will need the 700 series for a base, you cannot purchase the 800-900 by itself. The 700 is in fine condition as it is ;) and more detailed and avanced items are coming on the 800-900 so no matter you will have to purchase the upgrade along with the 700. FYI, the 700 is fine in FS9....[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J. Smithhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/betaimg.jpg Randy J Smith
March 25, 200422 yr Hi Randy,Thanks for the information. It will work out a bit expensive to buy the 600/700 @$39.95 and then have to pay out for the upgrade. Mind you I have been looking through the forum and there has been very few technical and compatability problems with the NG as there have with certain Airbus's. The reviews are very complimentary.Luckily the exchange rate is very good for buying goods priced in dollars so I will give it a go. Thanks for the reply.Mike
March 25, 200422 yr Author After the second patch, most of the problems people were having went away. I personally can't say I've had any problems with it at all since the SU2 patch, then again my flights are pretty routine.You won't be dissapointed with this product at all! It is more than worth the money for what you get, as well as the upgrade for the 800/900 will be. Compared to other pay ware add-ons, the NG is priced just right. I would gladly pay another $40.00 for the 800/900 upgrade. For two different planes, free liveries, real TCAS, a myriad of FMC features we've yet to even see, and the amount of work PMDG has done programming.Provided you follow the instructions and learn the FMC through tutorials and forums.Have fun!Chris - Chris Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX | Intel Core i9 13900KF | Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB | 64GB DDR5 SDRAM | Corsair H100i Elite 240mm Liquid Cooling | 1TB & 2TB Samsung Gen 4 SSD | 1000 Watt Gold PSU | Windows 11 Pro | Thrustmaster Boeing Yoke | Thrustmaster TCA Captain X Airbus | Asus ROG 38" 4k IPS Monitor (PG38UQ) Asus Maximus VII Hero motherboard | Intel i7 4790k CPU | MSI GTX 970 4 GB video card | Corsair DDR3 2133 32GB SDRAM | Corsair H50 water cooler | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD (2) | EVGA 1000 watt PSU - Retired
March 25, 200422 yr Will the upgrade overwrite the 600/700 or Will I have both 600/700 and 800/900 aircraft?RegardsRichR
March 25, 200422 yr You will have ALL the aircraft but in edition your 700-600 will be UPDATED with the new graphics and FMC options etc ;)[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J. Smithhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/betaimg.jpg Randy J Smith
March 25, 200422 yr HiI have decided to purchase the 600/700 and obviously upgrade it when the 800/900 is released. The TCAS sounds great. Just one thing before I get the credit card out, are the files on the AVSIM server as it could cause a problem downloading them. I know PSS use AVSIM for their downloads and they are having hardware problems. I attempted to download the manuals and tutorials this afternoon. I got most of them from the PrecisionManuals.com site but the main tutorial is on the Avsim server and that is off line. Thanks again.Mike DouglasLiverpool UKBAW688 BAV Captain
March 25, 200422 yr This list realy enjoyed me. I am glad to see that I bet on the right horse when I choosed PMDG 737 as airliner add-on for FS9.I realy look forward to your 800/900!
