Hi Scoob!Thanks for the cool link - very strange that some airlines really use the gear warning with flaps < 10 and idle power and have to silence it every time - veeery annoying in my opinion...The video-link in the forum-topic is also cool - like the female GPWS-voice but she could say a little bit more than only "50" below decision height ;-)Greetz - Thomas

Hi Douglas!Thanks for the quick answer - I could not change the behaviour of the gear warning by editing my Wilco B737-aircraft.cfgDefault values even were:[gear_warning_system]gear_warning_available=0 (!?!)pct_throttle_limit=0.099976flap_limit_power=24.637185flap_limit_idle=0.974028Changed it to your values and there was no change...Just deleted the bmgwarn.wav - and I have nice silence now :-) I know I also loose the gear warning in the higher flap-setting-range without that sound file but as an airline pilot I should somehow be able not to forget to extend the gear before landing with a little help of the final-checklist ;-)Greetz - Thomas

Hi guys!I am an airline pilot and fly Boeing 737-300 & -500. I found a programming error in both FS2004-B737 and my favorite Wilco B737 PIC: when you extend the flaps to 5 (above 1000 feet radio altitude) and set the thrustlevers to idle for further deceleration the gear-warning-horn sounds. In the real B737 this horn only sounds (above 1000 feet radio altitude) with flaps 15 and greater, idle thrust and gear NOT already down, so it's very disturbing and unrealistic during my flight-sim-sessions. Does anyone knows how to change this behavior in FS2004?Thanks in advance and "happy landings" to all :-)Thomas

Hi guys!I just want to have the conformation, that the B737 default modell is very poor programmed and that I am not making any mistake:- when I intercept an ILS with the Autopilot (LOC or APP) the airplane takes too little bank and overshoots the localizer - only after a few seconds it stabilizes on the localizer- at glide-slope-intercept it starts with a VSI of 2000 ft/min - going under the glideslope- with autothrust engaged the throttles often alternately turn to more power and then back to idle - always going up and downIs that normal with the FS2002 default-models? And if yes: why is MS not able to put more realism into their programm? I mean they have a lot of experience right now?!?!Thanx in advance...
