Two problems with PMDG MD-11 X

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

I got two problems for the beautiful bird.

 

The one is just occurred yesterday, I made a flight from JFK to Osaka, it's a very long haul flight for MD-11,

the take off weight is nearly MTOW. During take off, I got Engine Fail during V1........and then I crashed the plan.....

How could it happen? I don't think I set anything about failure.

By the way, the take off thrust is nearly full thrust (around 110%).

 

The second problem is about nav data, it happened not only on the latest Airac (1206)

I found the direction of the runway on the ND is incorrect, the direction is slightly different, how can I resolve the issue?

 

Cheers.

Frank

When the engine fails, do not raise the nose as much as you would during a normal takeoff. Just pitch up enough to climb and maintain V2. Kick the rudder into the engine just enough to maintain wings level. Accelerate at the E/O altitude on the TO page. When avaiable, turn on the AP and deal with the appropriate checklist. I would hold at a waypoint and start dumping fuel and prepare for an emergency return.

 

The number two engine could flame out if it isn't receiving fuel. The engine could have been damaged if you weren't taking care of the engine. Cold fuel perhaps? Other than that, I have no clue.

I think the magnetic variance update found on the top of the PMDG General forum may fix this issue.

Or you could try the flight1 registry tool (referenced somewhere in the forums),
