I know this is a really old thread, but does anyone have a blank texture kit for the Cherokee? I can't find one anywhere :(

I meant LNAV :rolleyes:

Thank you Kyle, I found your guide and downloaded it. I'll get into it a little later today. Thank you Chris. So basically when I want to activate the LNAV and I have everything ready to go to autopilot, I turn on the AP, click NAV and then VNAV twice (??)

Thank you Andy, that's great. The manual seemed to say that you needed to click on direct to, maybe I missed or misunderstood that it was a full LNAV as in most aircraft. :smile: olli4740, thank you for your response. Even the basic AP in this aircraft requires some reading of the manual. I'll check out Quality Wings, thanx! :wink:

I bought this model the day it was released and have never really flown it like it was meant to be flown. With RL and time constraints I just got bored every time I tried to wrap my head around it. Now that I'm retired and have unlimited time, I trying to force myself to learn how this plane needs to be flown. I've managed to get it up and flying and even managed to do an ILS landing. Problem is, I've been using the heading function and when near the destination, call on the ATC to vector me to final approach. I'm having a lot of trouble working with the FMC/FMS inputting the required info which I'm sure I'll figure out, I think I got a grip on that a few years ago and have since forgotten. My question mainly is, does LNAV follow the flight plan on it's own or do I have to manually click on "direct to" at each waypoint? Thank you for any help! :smile:

If A2A and PMDG got their collective heads together, they could turn out one of the most incredible DC-6's anyone could imagine in their wildest dreams!! :rolleyes:

I've seen mention of an SP2 for the JS41 but I only see the SP1 from 2009 on the PMDG site. Is there an SP2 or is that just a nasty rumor?

I found that my entire FSX crashed as soon as I clicked on "Fly Now" after I upgraded to Windoze 8.1. My solution turned out to be that by turning on DX-10 preview, everything works as advertised. My JS41 works in 8.1 with only one problem, if I use the HiDef panel, I get a severe graphics flicker in the cockpit. I don't know if there's a specific cure for that or if I'm stuck with using the LoDef panel. I don't see a lot of difference in them with my untrained eye.

You can download now, the Basler BT-67, C-117D and the C-47 v2 are done. The C-117d and C-47 are temporarily using a version of the modern Basler VC but in my first link you'll see that a vintage VC is being done for them. :rolleyes: BTW: they all have incredible paintkits that are a pleasure to use if you're so inclined.

That's already been done, you need to get out more http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?84263-Attention-all-DC-3-fans-!

To have a PMDG DC-6 of the same quality as the JS-41 and the NGX would be so incredible. It's time to take a break from all that FMC and jet whine monotony and get into a fire breathing shaky smokey old thrill of a lifetime!

Thanx for the reply. The instructions in the link you provided were a bit above my pay grade but it gave me an idea. I searched the xml file for "PMDG" and there was a small section there referring to it. I backed up the file and then deleted the reference to PMDG. It seems to have worked. I no longer get the error and FSX along with the JS41 and 1900D all have sound. Right or wrong it seems to be cured Thank you!

I have this error popping up when I start FSX. Whether I answer yes or no, FSX still runs with sound, the error is annoying. I've tried renaming the dlls folder in the PMDG folder but FSX then runs without sound and shows an error in a green band at the top of the screen. I have the PMDG 1900D and the PMDG JS41 installed. Is there something I can edit to get rid of the error message on startup? Thanx.

The 1900D works just fine in FSX. Go to PMDG's site and there's instructions in how to port it over.

Probly a coupla weeks! :LMAO:
