You know, for anyone that flies online, we should find some remote airstrip to train, practice circuits, takeoffs and landings, etc. Imagine a whole airfield full of MD-11s!!! :)Actually, which airfield was the MD-11 originally built/tested at?

As far as finding a remote airstrip lets use Edwards airforce base if that is the case.>Actually, which airfield was the MD-11 originally built/tested at?I would like to know that myself.Thank YouCapt. Eric Wade Joneswww.usairwaysva.orghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpg

Hey Bryan, I see why you are looking to fly out of Long Beach, CA when you get it. :)Thank YouCapt. Eric Wade Joneswww.usairwaysva.orghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpg

I take it Revisings to the manuals either Printed or PDF won't happen very much with the real MD-11 out of production?Thank YouCapt. Eric Wade Joneswww.usairwaysva.orghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpg

Waiting for pdf release on manuals!!!!Any update on tutorials?Perry

>I take it Revisings to the manuals either Printed or PDF>won't happen very much with the real MD-11 out of production?Eric, out of production does not mean the airplane won't get updates anymore.A lot of airlines are going to install or did already install fixed EFBs and FedEx is going to equip them with a HUD and lots of fancy bad weather sensors!Regards,Markus

>Any update on tutorials?Still the same, there's one tutorial going to be available with the other documentation, and more tutorials will follow later.Regards,Markus

I can secure a photo of the EFB if anyone is interested...

I got a question about this plane... I saw on many video/photo that like in many other recent planes, the weather radar can be show on the ND.Is the Weather Radar simulated into the MD11 ? As long as it wasn't in previous PMDG products, I just wonder if this one will get it ?Regards.

Yeah, that is why I said 'not very much'. I figured some would but it could be slim chance to see any as much as the others PMDG has produced.Thanks for the answer, good luck on getting the manuals taken care.Thank You Capt.

Hi,I read somewhere that it isn't. :( It's in one of the recent threads.Best regards,Robin.

Hi, I notice the Forum pages are cut back to like 4 or 5 they decide to delete all thos old threads to get some space for the MD-11?Thank YouCapt. Eric Wade Joneswww.usairwaysva.orghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpg
