I wish PMDG would spend some time and capital on a simple FS Navigator styled addon (drag and drop), which we could visually build routes and export them to the various flight management systems of the aircraft they produce.In it, we could set up our SIDS / STARS / WAYPOINTS etc from TOGO to touchdown, then export as a comapny route.FSNav was one of FS2004's greatest addons and died with FSX.Please could PMDG explore this idea and action it to simply things a bit?RegardsAnthony ReesCape TownSouth Africa

It's a worldwide conspiracy I tell you.It appears he is actually South African/http://flightcentre.co.za/

With his sense of humour, I beginning to wonder if Capt. Randazzo's real life flights are something like this.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh_shsRfXqkAntFACTSouth Africa

Ah, so that's where my missing baggage ended up.My grandmother was so looking forward to that wheelie trolley to bring the groceries back from the store to her apartment.AntCape TownSouth Africa

I love the Kukula livery from South Africa.Many thanks guys. I never expected you to do a small airline like this.Especially one from Cape Town where I live.+100 points to PMDGAntCape TownSouth Africa

Seems PMDG has chosen realism, would it be possible to match the worn-look in the cockpits with some dirty liveries?What I mean is aircraft with APU exhaust soot around the back. Basically a well-used aircraft, between wash cycles.Just a suggestion.Examples:1. http://images3.jetphotos.net/img/2/3/6/0/86368_1243148063.jpg2. http://images3.jetphotos.net/img/1/0/7/2/39996_1297856270.jpgAnthonyCape TownSouth Africa

There are a lot of denialists regarding the future of Xplane vs MS FSX.MS has finished making flight simulators, and that means the technology isn't going anywhere.XPlane are still forging ahead with new versions and improving vastly as they go.I predict that in 5 years, Xplane will be the leader and FS will experience a slow death.AntCape TownSouth Africa

I'd love to see these popular South African Airlines.SAAKalulaMangoAnthonyCape Town

@AvA757PilotI have a problem with your post and I hope you can clear this up.1. Why do you not name the magazine you are writing an article for? The reason I ask you this is because any person representing a reputable magazine would usually announce who they are, how they are affiliated to the magazine and the scope of their research. You have made 120+ posts on this board and you are being spuriously vague.2. Why did you not contact PMDG directly and ask them to refer you to their beta testers? This would have been the right thing to to. Utilising PMDG's forum for your commercial use without being clear on your intentions, isn't very professional.Canvassing here for sources of 'privileged information' held by beta testers with are usually under confidentiality restraints isn't exactly what I'd term 'Above Board'.AnthonySouth Africa

For me it has to be the 737-200, as seen below in this tight SAA formation display.Or the B747 Baby Jumbo. Short, stocky an mean!AntCape TownSouth Africa

Hey Robert,Where's my jump seat dude?Skimping on the upholstery I see.LOLAnthonyCape Town

I recently discovered that you can fly in Google Earth with a HUD. (See Video)Imagine if Google Earth become the next generation Flight Simulator & PMDG made the planes?It would be a marriage made in flight sim heaven.Can you feel it?Anthony ReesCape TownSouth Africa

I'd love PMDG to develop an A380 in the future, after their current projects.Check out this cool 3D photo/panoramic cockpit released by Airbus.Impressive.http://www.gillesvidal.com/blogpano/cockpit1.htmAwesome!Anthony ReesSouth Africa

Man, I wish that PMDG would just scrap all their other planned aircraft after the 737NGX and begin work on the 787 with haste.They already have good working relations with Boeing and all the work has been done on Boeing's side in terms of realistic / level D simulation already.One feature that rocks on the 787 is the electronic flight bag built into the ND (See video). You can view the runways and taxi wayson the ND. Awesome stuff. I took their static simulator for a spin at the Cape town air show a while back. Everything was so familiar and it wasa breeze to take off, fly circuits and land without any assistance from anyone.The argument that because the aircraft hasn't entered service yet isn't a realistic excuse not to model it and develop it NOW!from what's already been done.Come on PMDG, be the first to realistically simulate the World's future, most popular aircraft.I know you can do it and I know that you know it will be your best seller ever!
