NGX: Cold & Dark to Preflight Complete (Updated and extended)

Featured Replies

This is the second installment of the NGX tutorial. Where the previous version took you from cold and dark to completion of the CDU preflight procedure, this continues the setup procedure up to the point where you are ready to go through the preflight checklist. In addition to correcting errors and typos in the first version, I have added around 45 pages of new material. The intended audience ranges from those that are completely new to Boeing-type addons in FSX, to those who know how to get in the air and land, but would like a more solid understanding of the airplane and its systems. The main advantage over the extensive documentation supplied by PMDG is that this tutorial is designed to be read sequentially rather than to be used as a reference. You can download it here: http://stickleback.d...P11/NGXvol1.pdf (A4 format) or here: http://stickleback.d...11/NGXvol1L.pdf (Letter format). I hope you enjoy it, and any feedback is most welcome.
