Questions about PMDG...

Featured Replies

Hi, great product ya have here.A few questions, if you don't mind:)1. What's the proper way of loading the 737 NG? Just now I got a message on takeoff roll saying my CG was not within tolerances, and I was not able to take off.2. I could not find options to set the PMDG on cold startup. How do I make it so when I load the plane everything is turned off? Cheers,- Sun

click START --> LoadManager_FS2004 and select the aircraft you are using, make the settings within in the corresponding limits,then SAVE and EXIT.NOW start Flightsimulater.Select the Standard-CESSNA, select the AIRPORT and START. When the CESSNA appears with ENGINES RUNNING, switch the MAGNETOS-Switch to OFF (down left the first Knob), then next the two Red-coloured MASTER-Buttons to OFF (ALT BAT), and last the AVIONICS-Switch to OFF.No select PMDG-Aircraft and you will have Cold and Dark Cockpit at it

Let me please correct you on one item.DO NOT set the avionics switch to OFF!!!You will not be able to switch it ON with less than assigning a key to it as there is no avionics switch on the NG hence noone to be seen on the panel.Hope it helps,

thanksI wasn't clear on Question #1. I know how to load using the PMDG load utility, however I am unclear on how to distribute weight in the forward and aft baggage sections to maintain a proper CG. Could you clarify this for me, thanks in advance.- Sun

Seems that them PMDG-people made a good job them made, as switching the Overheadpanel the right way and using the described procedures, it allways works fine, Avionics toocheers,Helmut
