February 2, 20179 yr V Pod Operations were only meant to be available with two of the three engine types on the 744. Try all three to see which ones are modelled?

February 2, 20179 yr I haven't searched for it, but have you tried the Quantas versions? No, Clue: Qantas fly two very similar engine types that cannot fly the V Pod. Try searching by engine type.

February 2, 20179 yr Michel, Marc, Load the Qantas RR (VH-OJM) livery, and go to PMDG Setup->Aircraft->Equipment - it's listed as 5th Engine pod on page 17. No, Clue: Qantas fly two very similar engine types that cannot fly the V Pod. Try searching by engine type. How hard can this be Hi Steve I know you're keen to help out on every topic, but maybe consider holding back, reading the poster's concern clearly and giving a helpful reply that will allow them to experience the product they've purchased to their full enjoyment?

February 3, 20179 yr I've seen a QF744 fly over on the way to Singapore carrying the 5th engine. It's a bizarre sight. Brett Williamson
February 3, 20179 yr Commercial Member The option is available for the RR type engines only. It is more than a visual artifact. The 5th engine planes have a different performance database. You ll also need some rudder trim to fly straight after take off due to modelled 5th pod drag. Enjoy! ==================================== E M V Precision Manuals Development Group ====================================

February 3, 20179 yr Thank you, and how to get it??? I took a 747 with RR engines but dont know how to put the 5th engine I supposed you can do that on the FMC, PMDG setup options, after loading a RR equipped 747. Haven't tried this yet, but I will.

February 3, 20179 yr Commercial Member Excuse my ignorance but why do they do this - carry the v pod? Easier to stuff it on a revenue flight than coordinate shipping it via other means. Broken plane at a destination you serve? Send it on a revenue flight under the wing. Kyle Rodgers
