Thank you for your input, fortunately I had read the directions on the tin and was thus well aware that it was "not a simulation of the classics". There is however a thread in the forum claiming that it is possible to change the colours, however not being a Boeing engineer I obviously had no way of knowing for sure... Therefore I did the obvious thing and politely sought the information in the forum!Regards,Gustav.

Hi all, just a quick question, having seached all the docs and forum, is it possible to change the colour of the text in the NGX FMC? Used to be available on the Queen and the original 737 but sadly appears to be unavailable now.And before you ask... I just like green text!Thanx in advance.Regards,Gustav.

For instance, should I install the service pack 1?> Should I be doing the other tweaks I find on the forums, or>should I wait for recommendations from PMDG?>Thanks for any help.>DonIf you have a multicore processor get the patch, it doubles frame rates immediately. If you don

Hi, "Old" people were all once your age.... ;( So just be pleased that you have wisely chosen an engrossing hobby, able to attract people from all ages and walks of life as you have just shown with your post. The quality of the H/W and S/W comming onto the market today makes us more mature simmers envy you your simming future. Have fun and learn.Regards,Gustav. Oh bye the way I'm 72 and retired from Government Service. I actively participate in online flying and thoroghly enjoy all the PMDG creations. (can't wait till they are upgraded for FSX.) First saw FS.Ver.1 on an Apple Mac which I could never have afforded, fortunately very shortly it became available on the PC. I was smitten, and have bought every single version since! G. :-violin

Hi Freek!Welcome aboard, many happy hours await you with PMDG.e-mail me at:- [email protected] will forward a copy of Timothy M. Metzinger's original "Advanced Operations Tutorial" for the NG 737. :) Regards,Gustav.

>Not a happy bunny! :-violin >>Regards,>Gustav.At last on the 6/7 attempt!Also wasted a lot of time on this link on the website: - "For order and download support, or to request a new download link, please visit SimMarket at http://www.simmarket.com" Having had a previous order with these people the query was processed so far before becoming apparent it was tracking the wrong order number...! All very time consuming. :-hmmm Regards,Gustav.

Just purchased ASV upgrade version and am unable to download!Four attempts (Anti virus/Firewall off.) each time zip is incomplete (only 8Mb/65Mb.) Also very slow, 49 Kb on a 2MB BB connection. Computer has now been tied up for several hours! Not a happy bunny! :-violin Regards,Gustav.

>Hi Stian,>>You're right its a scarebus, apologies to the 73!>ARMEN at EGLL Very interesting pictures, but can I just remind you that there is NO such aircraft! Have you ever considered that many people find rather foolish remarks like this offensive? (Have you so quickly forgotten the slight problem with centre tank wiring in a 747? Or certain rudder problems on the 737?) Aircraft production provides a lot of revenue and jobs both sides of the Atlantic; ill-advised statements like this do nothing for either side. So please have a little thought before again repeating this inaccuracy.Regards,Gustav.

>Itai, sorry but this doesn't sound very nice to me.>I don't know how old are you but this is a very childish and>not representative comment from an Israeli responsible>person.>"Lo mekubal bikhlal kan". >>David in JerusalemDavid in Jerusalem,Sir, I'm not just sure "how old you are" either. Or, how mature... You appear to have arrived at rather disturbing conclusions, lashing out at the original author for what looks to most people, like a casual throwaway remark on a forum in the midst of a feeding frenzy. This is after all a game!Have a nice day.Gustav

>What does it all mean? Use Autobrake 2 in general and a big>handful of reverse :DBrad,How nice to come to the forum and find a helpfull and informative post. Not the whinging and constant "I want" we have recently experienced.... You have made my day! Thank you. :-wave Regards,Gustav.

Whats all this with the "virtual" part?regards,Gustav. :+

I am very disappointed not to have seen any mention of the first class dinner menu so far. we have after all been in beta for several weeks now, yet not one mention! Of even more concern though, whether or not the captain definitely still has first choice? Will this be properly simulated on the final release? Will it also be in the manual?Not wanting to whinge about trivia I do however really feel the time has come for the beta testers to get their priorities right, highlighting and reporting things of significance. I too don't want to be shouted at, nor to waste the testers time, however I'm sure PMDG must be aware just how important things like this are to mature simmers, requiring their vitals frequently and on a regular basis... (Rather like the toilet, even without a window.) So, no more nonsense then about wipers, aerials and the like let us focus on the more critical elements mentioned above! Now... About the wine list!! ;)Kindest regards to the PMDG team for creating and thoroughly testing what looks to be every simmers dream.... Gustav.

Hi,Lots of helpfull pages like this once you start looking, and perhaps slightly easier for the novice... http://home.houston.rr.com/maddatshell/Regards,Gustav.

No problems so far with any any aircraft including PMDG.Regards,Gustav.

Thank you Mr. Kalamaras, well said... It is a pleasure to visit this forum just because it is polite; as well as being informative and intersting. (just don't mention windscreen wipers though!) }(Regards,Gustav.
