Agree! You would think you could open and close doors, call your ground equipment, set up a pushback, and set your aircraft loads all via the tablet! This is as basic as they come.

October 30, 20232 yr I tried it out and like it a lot. Very responsive and works great with my Navigraph subscription. For what it does, it's very good.

October 30, 20232 yr Great gift PMDG! One question, Are you supposed to have a visual dipicted line on the runway,of takoff distance?

October 30, 20232 yr pmdg has been developed for more than a year, and pmdg just came up with this thing? What about the linkage between pmdg and simbrief? Playloads still need to be loaded manually on the FMC, and it cannot be loaded on the EFB, let alone automatically loaded. The loading of the flight plan is essentially the same. This is far different from fenix's EFB, let alone the free FBW's EFB.
October 30, 20232 yr SimBrief integration should work (at least it did in the videos I saw). Or are you refering to something else? On a side note: Is there a way of hiding the tablet, if you don't want to use it? Click-spot or option in the FMC something like that?

October 30, 20232 yr Using Google maps and scrolling around or zooming in the tablet crashes the sim for me. On the PMDG forums other users are reporting the same issue. Intel Core i5-12600k, Nvidia RTX 4070 Super, 128 Gigs.

October 30, 20232 yr So it does not load the fuel and payload from the Simbrief flightplan? Little bit disappointed here........ What is then the Simbrief integration? Already had all these app on my tablet, simbief and navigraph etc.
October 30, 20232 yr My flightplan loaded without problems from SimBrief. The tablet works and looks great!

So I still need the simbrief downloader and then select the route/plan through the FMC?

I must have done something intuitivly wrong (red is mine): Flight Plans/SimBrief Integration- Importing flight plans from SimBrief.- Download weather for the flight plan route.- Flight plan/weather sharing between tablet/aircraft.- Display of Operational Flight Plan.- Display of real time METAR information (native or simplified format) Edited October 30, 20232 yr by DAD Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

You're right.
