Windshield wipers

Featured Replies

Just wondering, does the windshield wipers on the 737NG actually work, or are they just for show?Thomas NyheimChief Pilot, UVAVA-Director NY-ARTCC

Will they work on the 600/700 down the road? I have the 800/900 and seem to remember you guys saying there'd be an update for the VC (performance) and a few other things that are currently implemented in the 800/900, but not 600/700.Chris

I tried, only 800/900 virtual cabin.Frans Dekker

The wipers are a feature of the Virtual Cockpit and as PMDG have said already that there will be a VC upgrade for the 600/700 then it will should work on them aswell.FS2004 only.Dunno if this right so please correct me if im wrong.

Can't wait...Thanks PMDG

Hi guys,I'm a bit surprised. The 737-800/900 package is installed on my computer but wipers don't move.I tried each position of the related knobs with the same result : No movement was observed.Does it mean that this upgrade is not correctly installed ? Kind regards, Vincent Mellinger.

Well maybe Vincent but I would venture to guess that you are not in a 800-900 aircraft?? Or you are trying from the 2D cockpit?? Wipers only work from the Virtual Cockpit Wipers only work when flying a 800-900 aircraft [h4]Best Wishes,Randy J.

Hi Randy, thank you for responding.Each attempt was realized in the virtual cockpit of the 800 aircraft with the result you know.I will try to remove and reinstall each package by using the dedicated program found in the PMDG Support Page.Kind regards.Vincent Mellinger.

Please also remove the left over 800-900 folders in fs's aircraft folder directory that the remover misses then re-install..[h4]Best Wishes,Randy J.
