March 14, 20197 yr I updated my 747-400 and the 800 via the Operations Center. I have not updated to P3DV4.4 yet. Unfortunately after the aircraft update I can no longer fly those aircraft. I have tried to uninstall and and reinstall but the version it updates to won't run anymore. It's very frustrating to say the least to have these 2 products dead in the water right now. Anyone have any suggestions to how I can get these aircraft working? Mike
March 14, 20197 yr Mike, I don't think I can offer any (good) advice to restore your P3D v4.3 ops. The PMDG PBR upgrade was specific to V4.4 (I think I read something on PMDG's new forum prior to the upgrade.) The "400" is the base for the expansion, so I can understand why both models were negatively impacted. Personally, the simpler solution (IMO) is to upgrade (free) to P3D v4.4. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Rob
March 14, 20197 yr Author Unfortunately when I installed the client for 4.4 the sim would not load. It just sat there and spun the little circle but wouldn't start the sim. That's the reason I reinstalled 4.3 client. Mike

That's the reason I reinstalled 4.3 client. Mike It‘s necessary to first uninstal client and content, then install client, then content. PMDG have made it clear that it is required to keep P3D up to date to use further updates in the future. The latest update won‘t work with 4.3 ,
March 14, 20197 yr They did say that anything after and including this latest update would require at least 4.4, so no surprise it didn't work on 4.3. Captain Kevin Air Kevin 124 heavy, wind calm, runway 4 left, cleared for take-off. Live streams of my flights here.
March 14, 20197 yr There's also no Boeing 747-800. It's a -8. Detail.

March 14, 20197 yr Quote There's also no Boeing 747-800. It's a -8. Detail. Well, for some even more detail most flying -8's are B747-830 😉
March 14, 20197 yr I had the same problem with just the 747 models. The solution was to free upgrade to 4.4. Make sure you have your license and password data for p3d Ron Ron Service .
