No worries. Understood.

OK, a necro-post, but just came across this on a search. Can you explain what "MENU" you are referring to here? * Orest

OK, a necro post, and for the 737NGXu now. But for anyone searching (like I just was), this is controllable now in the SOUNDs submenu, covered in the intro document page 96 or so. * Orest

It is best to remove UAC altogether on your FSX machine. It will step around a lot of headaches for you. * Orest

It appears that the attached PDF file link in the first message in this thread, is no longer accessible. This file is also available for download from the AVSIM libary, search for: ngx-fs2crew-flows-side-by-side.zip * Orest

Hans, Is the engravity unit monotone or color? * Orest

There is a CPFlight 737 EFIS "EL" model, for sale on eBay, searching on CPFlight will pop it right up. If this is not an appropriate post here, please fold, spindle or mutilate it as required. * Orest

To test cage the gyro, you click the circular knob below the standby attitude indicator. Unfortunately FSX does not properly model free water/rain/snow, which makes it impossible to accurately model radar reflections. As such, PMDG decided to not do it, as it could only turn out to be a sham. It is just a limitation of the underlying flight simulator itself. * Orest

Not a bad idea, but I think it might be a challenge to include locations, without cluttering it up. Now, they are all based on a logical flow from panel to panel, I suppose a quick pencil sketch with some arrows on a screen capture, might do the trick. Yes, the initial times it will be a bit of chore, but it should become automatic reasonably quickly - much as it should be. That is when it really "flies"! All items are properly simulated, so do need to be checked, save and except the weather radar. * Orest

David, You will enjoy the 737NGX, once you get it set up. How are you doing? * Orest

I am now a big fan of SSDs, at least modern, fast SSDs like the OCX vertex 3. My main FSX computer, I have migrated to an SSD for D: (FSX and add-ons drive), main drive C: (system) currently a WD Caviar -- I am about to replace it with an SSD. Previously I used a Raptor for the FSX drive, it is sitting idle at the moment. I also have two Tb caviars in a RAID 1 (mirror) format as drive E:, which is used for backups of multiple computers on the network. Windows 7 has native TRIM support which largely removes the issue of stray assigned groups of sectors, which otherwise can whittle away performance and available space. SSDs are limited in write counts, but this is unlikely to be a factor in the normal life of the drive/computer. Although initially gun-shy on SSDs, I am in with both feet now. Though they don't make a huge improvement in in-sim performance, startups are much faster, and then run much cooler too. All our laptops are now equipped with SSDs. The only down side is the cost/Gb, but that is coming down fast too. * Orest

I really found that depiction helpful myself, so naturally, happy to share. * Orest

Well, third leg done, I'm in Augusta Maine, 5000ft runway. Flaps 40, and didn't waste any time putting it down. Austin Texas next. * Orest

Dennis, Yes, I wanted to sort it differently. In any case, have my own spreadsheet now. (posted upthread) BTW, great idea, thanks for posting. * Orest

I had a look, couldn't find the setting, where exactly? * Orest
