May 20, 201016 yr im really excited in seeing the VSD in action. Bryan Richards "People depend so much on automation that they forget how to get the automation to work." B.W.
May 21, 201016 yr I really enjoy immersive soundsets that pull me in to the simulation. Here's a real 737 cockpit at FL410, and I hope PMDG can get their sounds as close to this as possible. Curt Branch
May 21, 201016 yr Can you post a picture of the VSD please? As a real B738 F/O, i would like to see this in actionG Macasoi

We tried to make this realistic in the 747 and a lot of people complained about it in the original version.

We tried to make this realistic in the 747 and a lot of people complained about it in the original version.I don't envy you guys sometimes trying to balance these competing ideals. Like, with the J41 where the engines are very loud in real life and you have achieved that, but then people complain about it."There's no pleasing some people.""That's just what ******* said, sir." -Life of Brian Doug Orvis PP-ASEL-IA (USA), Based at KHEF Picture courtesy of Kyle Rodgers

May 21, 201016 yr You're hearing nothing but wind noise there btw... We tried to make this realistic in the 747 and a lot of people complained about it in the original version.I know what you're saying, I think people complain because they really don't know the difference between what a passenger hears, and what a pilot hears. For example, hypothetically speaking, if you were to poll folks with this video and ask if they wanted these sounds, they would say yes...,because they know they're voting for realism. Once people have proof that it's real, they'll accept it; otherwise, they'll insert their own interpretation of reality and complain. Well anyhow, if you must include a modified soundset to appease the masses, I'll just have to tweak until I'm satisfied. A better option yet, is if you could prepare a separate "real" soundset for people like me. Even in these economic times, I'd pay an extra $20 for it. Curt Branch

May 21, 201016 yr If there is an option for eyebrow windows, then that wind noise will change, since it is one of the reasons (besides maintenance costs) why many airlines got rid of them. As Ryan says, there is a fair bit of wind noise in a 737, that's why it has those little turbulators under the windscreen, to try and reduce the noise a bit.Al Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
May 21, 201016 yr Anyone have any updates as far as when the 737 800/900 version for FSX is gonna be avilable???? Any info would be great :)Daryl

May 21, 201016 yr I have it on good authority that it will definitely be released at some point prior to the end of the 21st CenturyAl Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
