Great news, thanks for sharing Robert. Excellent cooperation between two fantastic developers and shows what can happen when developers cooperate to improve and enhance their products for the users. And of course well done to Damian, Kostas and Alex for making it happen!

Ittai, I've replied at the BAV Forums, but will copy and paste it here in case it helps others: What I can't see from your Avsim screenshots is what your flaps were set to in that shot?? Having a closer look, your VSpeeds are not correct according to the landing speed charts, so I think you could be reading the charts all wrong. You have a VREF from the charts of 132, the VAPP should be VREF+5 knots+headwind/gusting component and the VAC should be 161. (VAC for Flap 5 landing is sourced from VAC Flap 2 and for Flap FULL landing from VAC Flap 4) On your screenie, VAPP appears to be set to 132 and your VREF is around 127, thus in the stall protection zone. Your VAC is set for 143 which is the setting for a Flap FULL landing (really only used for short field operations or steep approaches like LCY). Hope this helps. Mark

If you're using Active Sky to generate your weather and not FSInn don't click on the cloud. Let Active Sky give you excellent weather instead.Make sure you select the VATSIM option in Active Sky so that you have the same weather as the other VATSIM users, including ATC, for your departure and arrival airports.

Hi JimThanks for that. I turned on the wind shift settings in FSUIPC without making any adjustments to what was offered and doing a flight now in the E190 with 100 knots on the nose and 106 from the right and smooth as silk.Appreciate your help as alwaysMark

HI JimHope you're well. I've finally got a computer that is able to run FSX and ASX and XGraphics well.I logged into these support forums to report the same thing.I've been flying addon aircraft (FeelThere Embraer 190 and Level D B763 (FSX versions of both)) and been getting similar wind shifts.All the times it's in Level flight with winds aloft. I've been cruising at F380 (E190) and F370 (B763) and one minute I will have 100+ knots on the nose as I would expect on the routes I have been flying at the this time of the year, then suddenly it would swing around and give me 100+ knots on the tail, almost a 180

HI JimThanks for that, gosh I am behind the 8 ball aren't I!Appreciate your prompt response.Take careMark

I am still using FS9 and ASv6.5 and still really happy with both.I have build 533 of ASv6.5 and was wondering what the latest build is?Mark

I'm having a problem that some my installed PMDG B737s are not displaying in FlightSim.I have checked and rechecked the aircraft.cfg file and I'll be damned if I can see why not.Some have been installs from the PMDG website using their installer and others have been from Avsim or other sources that I have had to copy and paste the [fltsim.x] information into the aircraft.cfg files.I do have a lot of them installed.I can post my aircraft.cfg file and screenshots of my directory structure if need be.Any or all help appreciated.Mark

Thanks for your help guys. Will try this. Never even thought about that!Travis, if I have any problems, I'll give you a shout!Mark

Hi all.I have been flying the PMDG 737NG since it was first released and love the product.I have been having problems with the autoland function. I have an approach set up, on approach speed, Vref set and stable approach.Almost every time (about 99 times out of 100) as soon as I touch down the Autobrakes disconnect and I have to jump on the brakes to bring it to a halt and can't use reverse thrust.I don't know what I'm doing wrong so any thoughts would be appreciated.My system is a P-IV 3.4, 1GB DDR2 RAM, PCI Express Video card with two 17" LCD monitors, with CH Pro Pedals, Yoke and Throttle. FS2004 SP1.Mark
