That's cause you haven't updated the nav data/sid stars.. I guess you're going to have to read the instructions

>I was flying a leg KJFK to KBOS>and the FMC had nothing for the apprs>not even a single star or a single runway>This costs 3995 but doesnt look worth it!!First of all, PMDG rules require you to sign your posts with your real name. Please do so in the future.Second of all, why would you make a comment that the airplane "isn't worth it" before you've even asked a single question about the problem you're having?To solve this "problem" (which is mentioned at least 2 or 3 times at the start of the 737NG manual and also in the HTML document that pops up when you install the airplane) you need to download the navdata file. Go to www.navdata.at and download the AIRAC All-in-One file for the PMDG737-767PIC. This file is not included with the airplane because it's created by Richard Stefan and is for both the PMDG and the 767PIC product. When you install the file, be sure to change the install path to your FS9 folder. Once this is installed, the airplane will then have an FMC database. Also, you'll want to go to the PMDG site and download the latest SID/STAR file, that will update your departure, arrival, and approach data to the current cycle.
