February 27, 201115 yr Hi, new to this forum and recently new to the PMDG B737-700 running on FS2004. Some times I get an odd message that says out loud "Don't Think" along with a few other more standard messages like "terrain" and "pull up" if I am flying manually and trying to squeak one in a short field or have a bad approach. Has anyone else encountered this? I am curious what it is doing there. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure it's saying Don't sink Kenneth Weir My Saitek yoke mod i7 2600k @ 4.7 8GB Gskill CAS7 2x GTX580 SLI Surround + GT520 Accessory Win7x64
February 27, 201115 yr Welcome to the forum, a couple of other suggestions. First, make sure you take a look at the manuals. The NG is a complex model and requires some homework before you hop in a take a flight. Also there are a few very good tutorials available. They are very helpful in understanding how to use the NG systems during each phase of a flight. :( George Morris
March 1, 201115 yr Definitely "Don't Sink" part of the GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System) probably getting the msg some time after take-off, it's warning you that your going the wrong way, should be going up & not down

March 28, 201115 yr Captains:"Don't think" is a new TCAS warning system for pilots who take too much time thinking in an event of emergency...........John
March 29, 201115 yr I had always assumed that the 737's GPWS system, noting that my VSI descent rate was an alarming 2000 feet per minute, and that I'd forgotten to lower the landing gear as I careened down to the runway threshold, had resorted to frantically yelling " Don't Drink !", in a belated effort to avert disaster.Tony Best regards from Tony, at the helm of the flying desk.
March 29, 201115 yr Sounds like your aircraft has a lisp. I'm pretty sure it's saying Don't sink Don't make a joke when you comment man... Besides, it's more likely that your aircraft is French and it can't say the word "think" so it says "don't sink". Eg: "I don't sink so monsieur..." Maybe... But let's be serious, you're right. It is "Don't sink". Which means you either hold current altitude or climb.
