First Few Days,Summing Up The Issues I Have Found.

Featured Replies

Hi Guys.First Of all I would like to say thanks to PMDG for the 737NGX,super aircraft,very impressive.Though I have only found minor issues they can be frustrating when trying to get max enjoyment from the 737NGXOver the past few days of flying these are the issues I have found.1) Livery Manager- I can only install 800NGXWL liveries.2) 2D cockpit- Panel too high to see Runway on Landing,though correctable using CTRL + Q to adjust eye line.3) Auto Brake system- ( I see this is a common problem as I have read the ongoing thread in the forum.)I have experienced the brakes not working on taxing etc,the last few flights though no problems to report.4)Instant Replay- Using the default FSX Instant Replay there seems to be no animation of spoilers being deployed,or the engine cowlings moving when reverse thrust is engaged.5) Operating Weights- The FMC on the 800NGXWL seems to being dipalying the incorrect MTW weight compared to the manual.MY FMC is showing 79.2 (using Kilos),this seems to be the MAX Taxi Weight for the 900NGX.If in the mean time someone could confirm MTW,MTOW,MZFW,MLW for the 800WL and also the Max Range in NM that would be most helpful.Hope to see a fix soon.Tony Simpson

Tony, Couple replies to your findings: 1) Check that the aircraft.cfg in each folder for the 800/800WL/900/900WL is not set to read only. There is a pinned topic in the NGX forum at the top by Ryan that outlines how to fix it. Check it out... 2) I will forward this to the dev team. 3) Are you using rudder pedals? Whichever way, you will need to double tap in quick succession your brakes to disengage the Auto Brakes. 4) Don't use FSX instant replay, our NGX is an entirely custom airplane and FSX instant replay cannot record all of the custom animation variables. You will need to either use FRAPS or FS Recorder (latest version). 5) Others have answered this one for you, but the NGX weights are as per our tech documentation. Cheers,

Hi Jason, I'm dense here. Are we using the weights from the FCOMv1 manual, or the weights stated in the FMC, and at Boeing's website? Thanks, John
