Crikey, am i the only one it seems to be working for? EGPH-GCTS, no issues importing Simbrief plan, weather, and along with Navigraph  integration, i like it.

How does the EFB perform perfomance-wise? 

Is it same level as the Fenix A320 now?

Have you used the operations center recently? There was a problem a few weeks ago where you had to manually download the op center installer from the PMDG web site to get the latest version - it would not auto-update.

Are you using landing dispatch or landing enroute? Use landing enroute to try different landing configurations.

Takeoff intersection data you can not edit length they are aware of that. On the landing enroute you can't edit either and some of the distances are shorter than what they should be. I think Dublin was like 200 metres shorter than what it was saying on the charts.

Out of curiosity, what distances are you trying to edit on the landing section and for what purpose? The only thing I would think you would want to edit is the landing config (flaps, rev thrust, autobrake, landing wt, etc).

Edit: I may have misread, but if you mean that you can't edit things like flaps, etc. Then yea email their tech team because I can edit those.

I can edit flaps etc fine. But landing runway available for EIDW 28L for instance is 2637M I believe it was giving me around 2400 something like that I know its simple maths to work out but would be ideal if we could edit it.

What a nonsens is this Performance Tool, dosent work realy for me, it looks for airport alt and airport name and if you write in it dosen`t accept entrys so what, 2 years for such a EFB - another shame, typical PMDG IMO !!!!

Hi Jim. Yes I updated the op's centre but it made no difference.

Just got back from walking my Lab. Tried it again and it's now downloading 3.0.80.

 

Exciting times!

My EFB is just blank.   Is there a trick to turning it on?  I tried clicking the button, holding the button and hovering over the button but does not turn on.

Just updated to SU14 beta and the new 737 update.

Did it work before the beta, or did you not test it out prior to beta update?

Did you get the 2637 meters from official charts? IIRC the EFB takes runway lengths from the sim, not any official source, so maybe there's something amiss in the scenery or the sim database.

I didn't try it before the beta.  I downloaded the PMDG updates then started MSFS and it automatically updated to SU14 beta. 

 

Just got this response on the PMDG forum:

The tablet is not tested in SU14 beta AFAIK.
Blank tablet isn’t seen in beta testing, so likely SU14 does not support the tablet one way or another.
