Load control on NGX
Good afternoon all.I've been flying around in the NGX since the release of this addon, and I'm very satisfied and impressed.What I'm missing thought is the pre-flight ops, or load control to be more excact. It's more fun to do the load sheet manualy. :-)What I would like:- a generated report of DOW, D.O.I etc, from the selected configuration, aswell as an empty load sheet.- See/change the load in different compartments (1-4)- See/change the pax distribution in the sections.- Should be able to select different seat layouts. Many airlines use Y186 or Y189.Is there any chance for us to see this in the future of NGX?

N1, approach and EEC
Excactly! I cold not find the exact requrements for the eec to switch to approach mode.At this picture you therefore see an aircraft with approach idle. I've also asked quite many pilots here in Scandinavia now, and none of them recognizes the very high N1 I experience with NGX. Two times the last few moths they have even demonstrated this, and this last time I grabbed my camera to take a picture. It's hard enough trying to brake an -800 with 32 on N1, and sometimes you might need the landing gear to get some extra drag. This "secret weapon" is almost no use now, if N1 increases to over 40%.

N1, approach and EEC
Thank you.I do not think this is related to neither of the automatic flight systems, or flight modes. I think this is related to the electronic engine control, that increases the idle. It might be a limitation between N1 and N2 in FSX, but hopefully something that would be possible to fix.:)

N1, approach and EEC
Good day, all! After work yesterday (I'm working on an airport) I got the chance to sit on jump seat a few legs and home.While flying we talked a lot about the difference between the -800W compared to lighter 737s.The -800W is known to be an amazing glider, that's for sure, but after a demonstration of a "steep" approach (5000ft QFE/12nm) I have some questions for the PMDG 738. As you see on the picture, the landing gear is out and flaps is set to 5. Still the N1 is 32.7%. If I try to do this in the sim, when extending the gear, N1 increases to about 40%.I didn't get a picture of it, but in this real 738, N1 stayed at 32% even when flaps were set to 15+... I tired to set up my simulator just like on the picture bellow, at 4800ft 12nm from the runway, but it seems almost impossible to me with NGX, when N1 idle is 40%+. This is btw the second time in a short while I've seen the "proof" of approach idle at 32% N1 in a B738, a few weeks back the ATC director forgot us. Any suggestions or comments? If it's a bug, would it be possible to get this fixed? NB:- I'm flying NGX on a Win7 64bit computer.- A/T is irrelevant to this problem.- Tried with and without ice protection.- Tried all versions of NGX,- Happens at least bellow 6000ft (tested) Anyway, this is the only issue I have with NGX. A master piece of an addon.

Edit the passenger capacity
Hi folks! Coudn't find this topic anywhere, or in the intro manual.Different airliners use different seating configs. I know it's possible to change between "class"-types in the FMC, but would it be possible to edit the number of seats aswell? In this example, Norwegian Air Shuttle has 189 seats in their -800(WL) aircrafts. Would this be possible? Best regards,Geir Gronlien

The fuel usage model - how good is't`?
Good afternoon,just a quick question. How good is the fuel usage model for PMDG737? The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying different ways of flying, trying to save as much fuel as possible. F.ex. trying to descent on the best L/D and see how huch fuel I saved. Would these results be simular to the real world results?Maybe a bit weird and studpid question, but.. :)Best regards Geir Groenlienwww.youtube.com/seilfly

Pilatus Porter PC-6 - Skydiving
Good eve folks!Last week I went to Voss (a small village in Norway) , famous for it's yearly "Extreme week" (sky diving,parachute, base jumping, mountain biking etc.)This year "Voss skydiving club" leased a Pilatus PC-6 Porter to carry the skydivers up to 12000ft... I took some pictures and I'm wonder if any of those would have a chance on airliners.net?http://www.home.no/geirg/1.jpgLoadinghttp://www.home.no/geirg/4.jpgWhat??? This picture was taken when we passed 1400ft (AGL) http://www.home.no/geirg/6.jpgClimbing http://www.home.no/geirg/9.jpgLook at the instruments on this picture... Steeep descent! The altitude shows the altitude above airport. "Victor Hotel, turning downwind 8000ft!!" http://www.home.no/flyspott/101.jpgDescending. Pretty steep huh?http://www.home.no/geirg/13.jpgFinal approach-----------And just a bonus to show the approach:http://www.home.no/flyspott/121.jpg-----------Are any of those pictures good enough for airliners.net? I have them in a larger scale to (1600x____) Comments are welcome!Thank you for your help!--PS! Sorry for my bad English--Best regards Geir Groenlien

rt2 generator
Hmm, haven't tried FSBUILD yet (2.2 is the right version?).As I'm a member of Virtual Scandinavian Airlines (SVA) I use SVATT4 (their own program) to create my flightplans. The plans are written in the .rte format.Best regards Geir Groenlien

rt2 generator
Hi folks!Are there any flightplan generators to generate .rt2 flightplans, like FSBUILD etc?Or are there any way to convert my .rte files into .rt2?The rte files don't load in the PMDG B744 Best regards Geir Groenlien
