PMDG panel/aircraft state question.

Featured Replies

Hello guys,

 

Happy PMDG newbie here. I recently did the jump onto the 737 and i am enjoying it big time. 

However i was just wondering if it is possible to save the current panel/aircraft state to have it ready to load for the next flight. I am usually using the airstairs for deboarding (BBJ) and would like to save it for the next flight. At the moment every time i start a new flight i have got the stairs connected and have to remove them first to deploy the airstairs.

Also i would like to save the current fuel levels.

Is that somehow possible and if yes, how do i do that the easiest way?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Have a good one,

Thomas

Yes, all of it. In the FMC there's an option in a submenu (can't remember which, I think "options" or something) called "save panel state" (and "load").

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Yes i have seen it somewhere.

How is the procedure then? Just hit save before exiting the sim and load after loading into the flight?

Setup takeoff config TCAS etc and save panel state and have startup state what you named it. Fuel and the BBJ version wont saveout to max but give you a total of only 44lbs*1000. So for the first restart after youll have to select fuel and set 100% then its set.
