  1. I have the same issue with the cabin windows as well. Also a very peculiar thing occurred when uninstalling using the control panel. I noticed the 777-300ER expansion was not listed in the list of programs but the base pack was. Could this possibly have corrupted the subsequent installation? VR Todd
  2. I have a question on this I find puzzling. If FSX for example is limited to approximately 4Gb of memory, how are some people plagued by this and others not? I've seen folks using worldwide detailed scenery and photo real texturing, yet I cannot complete a fourteen hour flight without the memory warning followed shortly after by the OOM, usually on approach. If this is an actual limitation of the software, how isn't every Flightbeam, FS dream team, REX, FS global, PMDG user not effected by this. VR Todd
  3. Good evening, I am unable to manipulate RTE2 inflight at all. I am unable to set a new destination or origin. I get a message that states "invalid entry" I was attempting to program the follow on route. I am wondering if I should submit a ticket as well. VR Todd
  4. Hi, I'm from the FAA; I'd like to help you...
  5. Love the old "widget" repaint! MD-11 still gets a lot of hours. It will never go out of style. Chees, Todd

    I'll give it a try. Glad I'm not the only one. Thank you. Todd

    Good Morning, I just recently upgraded to to the 300ER and now my 200LR's do not show in the FSX aircraft menu. Ops Center no longer recognizes the 200LR. Any suggestions on how I can get my 200LR's back? VR Todd
  8. If only I knew something about aircraft development, I have 1000 hours in the C-17A and the manuals, I'd have to dig them up though. I've been out of the Air Force a bit. There are many cool aspects that could be simulated. Yes it's just a "trash" hauler, but the ability to simulate the airdrop, air refueling, assault landings would be great in FS. Like RSR stated, it would be extremely complex to develop; I feel even more so than the airliners since the FMS system is unique to the airplane itself and the procedures generally are different than most aircraft. As far as thrust reverse in flight, I've had 10,000ft/min decent rate. It's an impressive aircraft.

  9. Not necessarily, it is the flight attendants that alert you the cabin is ready. They don't necessarily know the status of your checklist progress. They are simply alerting you they are ready. Todd
  10. Actually you can step climb on NAT's, I've done it many times. Of course like anything you must request it. These days as part of your oceanic clearance you are required to give them your "when able higher" report at your first reporting point on the NAT. This is required in the New York and Santa Maria Oceanic FIR's. It is optional for the others. VR Todd
  11. I get this too, occasionally. Believe it or not it can be caused by chip creep. Turn off your machine and reseat your memory sticks. The expending and contracting can slowly push out the memory sticks. Good luck. Todd

    Any of you running REX? I had this issue as well, stopped using REX the freezing stopped. I'll check for REX updates and see if I can use it on long haul flights. Cheers, Todd

    Wow, The tone here is disturbing. What are these forums for if people are going to get grief for asking questions? From the sound of it, this place is loaded with self righteous, type rated, real world 777 pilots. Let's all just smile and be helpful. Cheers, Todd
