Learner flight plans 737NG

[Guest Flint_10]

I am a new user of the the wonderfull PMDG 737NG and was wondering if anyone can help me with a few ideas on setting up the FMC unit or help with an easy flight plan. I have slowly upgraded to the 737 and am keen on trying to program the aricraft's FMC unit and although I have tried a few times -without success - it appears to be not so easy.I have had some difficulty in getting the AP to work successfully for instance. Have I tried to walk before I can run !!!Thanks in anticipation.

Hello BIG-AL,I would recommend downloading Timothy Metzinger's great tutorial, I think you can find it on PMDG's website. After going through that tutorial you will have no trouble mastering the FMC and entering your own flight-routes.All the best and happy programming :-)
