Absolutely Astonishing !!!!

I have owned the "Queen" since it was released but had not taken it up into the air until today.I was one of the people who experienced the CTD when the battery switch was pressed, and I am happy to say that the deletion of the engine state seemed to cure the problem..Well, I today embarked on the 1st leg of the IVAO Tour for 2006, so I thought this would be an ideal opportunity to finally test it out after wading through the manuals last night I was pretty set up for this morning. It was quite hillarious actually, I have flown FS since FS98 and this was the first time I actually felt nervous about taking something up..How SAD... I have flown the POSKY 747 many times but there was something different about this flight. I think the major worry was that I had everything set up correctly.Well to cut a really long story short, I found engaging LNAV a little tricky after take-off but finally got there in the end, and the autoland execution at Charlotte-Douglas was spot on in about 300m vis.The cruise was smooth and it gave me plenty of time to see the systems fully operational and to also read the manual a little more.I know it has been said before but :Thank you PMDG for this wonderful creation, however not that I expected anything different from you guys. I own the 600,700,800 andd 900 and also the B1900 and I am really looking forward to the 747-F now..!!As far as payware is concerned, and to my detriment of my bank balance :-eek I do own quite a few payware products, as far as the aircraft scene is concerned, yourselves and LDS, ( heavy fanatic ) provide the complete package with excellent support to go with it.Keep up the excellent work and release that F and MD11 soon eh..;-)Steve Ellis
