I have the 737NG Version 1.3 600/700 . ?? Cannot update to 800/900 it says no version 1.0 installed. I see no version 1.0 for 800/900 in support.

I am a PMDG 737 fan but after getting ifly 737ng its a step further to real thing even smooth on my 2.0ghz system. I do not have the feature pack upgrade yet .

Got the ifly version 2.1 at pb, 737ng works like a dream . Waiting for 3.0 feature pack. Deleted Ariane waste of space. Thanks !!!!

Hi, The nav display gauge does not show on the main panel. I have reinstalled the game BBJ ver 3.5 and 737 ver 3. I am using FS9 and my system is xp with latest FSUIPC version 3.9.9.9 . Any help appreciated.

Hi, Thanks for the replies .Problem solved. The FSUIPC was version 3.9.9.1. I downloaded the latest version 3.9.9.9 and it works fine unregistered. I am sure there must be others with this problem. I wonder will registration be mandatory in the future ?? Thanks,

Hi, I got a real perplexing problem with the axis on FS 2004.This has nver happened before. The flight yoke shows up in FS and can be calibrated .The buttons work but not the x,y and slider axis. I have reinstalled the game used a different joystick pressed ctrl+shift to re- write the cfg file. The flight yoke works in Fly and X plane .I have reinstalled the USB drivers and flight yoke drivers. My joystick is a Sidewinder that uses the com port but its still not working. I have 2 back up hard drives with FS installed .I booted these and get same result. The FS. cfg file looks like this [JOYSTICK_MAIN {55CAA1E0-5037-11DE-8001-444553540000}] AXIS_EVENT_00=AXIS_ELEVATOR_SET AXIS_SCALE_00=64 AXIS_NULL_00=36 AXIS_EVENT_01=AXIS_AILERONS_SET AXIS_SCALE_01=64 AXIS_NULL_01=36 AXIS_EVENT_06=AXIS_THROTTLE_SET AXIS_SCALE_06=127 AXIS_NULL_06=1 [JOYSTICK_SLEW {55CAA1E0-5037-11DE-8001-444553540000}] AXIS_EVENT_00=AXIS_SLEW_SIDEWAYS_SET AXIS_SCALE_00=64 AXIS_NULL_00=36 AXIS_EVENT_01=AXIS_SLEW_AHEAD_SET AXIS_SCALE_01=64 AXIS_NULL_01=36 I have genuine FS9 disks .I tried to register again but the web site no longer exists. I begin to wonder is this Microsoft piracy prevention. My system is XP updated SP2,3 and I have an Nvidia Gforce card. Direct x 10c tested and says no problems. Any help appreciated had the game for 8 years now. Atkin.

Hi, Thanks for the replies.I cannot seem to find it in VC also.I need to set trim and use fuel on for starting. I also find using the / key does not activate spoilers. Atkin.

Hi, I have the Ariane Boeing 737 V3 .I cannot seem to get the throttle control panel ? I have tried the shift 1 to 9 keys and and the control +s also using the number pad to look around. Nothing? Any ideas would be grateful, Atkin.

Hi, This was been over a year ago .I don't use the panel now it has a lot of bugs. Try loading panel with everything running perhaps it is something you have missed in preflight check. Check battery switch on,check IRS selectors in the overhead Off then Nav this can be a problem it takes 10 mins to activate. Push L on the keyboard to activate lights on and off . Check you have the 2 service packs and Fsuipc is up to date. The panel is a challenge . Hope this helps. Regards, Atkin

Hi, I have the A320 PIC which I do not recommend.The plane handles like a #### and bounces on landing.There is no 2D only a virtual panel so expect hand acrobatics as you try to switch between each window view . The aircraft systems are the only plus and do function eg FMC. I doubt if changing weights or values in it have any effect on the aircraft performance.The autopilot engages smoothly however unlike many other planes. I guess if you like a challenge try but its just not realistic to fly. I got it cheap on e bay. Regards, Atkin

Hi, The FMC shows a different fuel quantity to what is shown in FS9. I use the freeware fuel planner from PMDG to load fuel. The quantity cannot be changed in the FMC . Any ideas. Atkin.

Hi, Thanks for the replies. I am new to this extensive panel so I am sorting out some of the bugs. I discovered that when the overhead is up you just click M to return to the main panel.SIMPLE. The auto pilot takes a bit of getting used to capture it is a familiar one. The fuel quantity is still a mystery its different in the FMC than FS9 .I don't know if this is calculated by the FMC for the distance. The FMC altitudes need to be checked near the destination as they are high. I like the dynamics no bouncing that you get with other panels.There has been no upgrade to this since 2004 ? Like no VNAV etc. Atkin.

Hi, When I use the clickable letters for the different panels in the main panel.I find that I cannot return to the main panel from the overhead.I must go into the view menu at the top .its annoying!! Any Ideas, Atkin

Hi, I am looking for an Airbus 320 or Boeing 737. What is the most realistic ? I also look for an FMC that is real world. Any ideas, Atkin.

Hi, I find FSnav is difficult to make flight plans with. The program has no nav aid search facility. When you fly online with the networks like IVAO you are required to fly certain routes . These can take a long time to make. The same problem with the FS9 flight planner. I wonder is there a way to both update it and add a search. I can remember FS98 had a nav aid search!! Got any ideas, Atkin.

Hi, FSnav does not have a Nav aid search facility. When you fly online with the networks eg IVAO .The real routes required for some events are difficult to put together.ATC can change your route in mid flight too. The FS9 flight planner is outdated and also has no search .I can remember FS98 had a nav search .!! I wonder is there a way to update and develop a search for it. What is FSX flight planner like,any improvement?? Regards, Atkin.

Sorry don't know have not got FSX . I downloaded the iFLY 747 Version 1 from flightsim.com and all is ok. Atkin.

Hi, The PFD and Nav gauges only partly display in the iFly 747. I downloaded the panel from Avsim perhaps there is a file corruption. My Fsuipc is the latest version 3.7.3.There is a suggestion that an earlier might work .I tried 3.7.2 no luck. Any ideas, Regards, Atkin.

The expression tips and TRICKS apply to this panel .This trick should save a bit of *&&^%$ . Atkin.

I have found that you need to wait for the IRS to activate 10 minutes . Then it seems to be possible to add the gross weight.This panel has many quirks I saw another post that suggested you can add the ZFW which is default 184.2 Kilos. I have a problem with the PFD and Primary Nav gauges only partly display ?? Regards, Atkin.

How about a forum section for the freeware iFLY 747. There are a lot of bugs in it but they can be corrected with mutual help. Regards, Atkin.

Hi, I have a problem with the PFD gauges in IFly .There are missing parts .I have tried a reinstall but still the same.Any ideas.

Addon scenery and Multiplayer aircraft from the networks IVAO and Vatsim can cause frame rate problems. I found after a hard drive crash and a fresh reinstall of FS I get better rates.

There are updates on Avsim available,. You should backup original.Checkout http://PlanePath.com These are SID/STAR procedures onlyThe Airac is now payware.Where there is an update N/A as yet.atkin.
