  1. The ability to zoom all tree lcds at once in 2D cockpit, so that they line up nice under the MCP, like on the 747. All the space between them and the gear handel is useless 95% of the time. This was not an option on the MD11 and was a bit grumpy over it :(


  2. Hi,after playing flight sim for many years i have always wondered aboutthe boredom of being a real pilot.I love flying sims but if the cruise time is more than an hour or soi tend to speed up the simulation speed.Except the occasional radio contact and turning some fuel pump off ect it just isnt much to do and get kind of boring.I know that on long routes they have extra pilots rotate but stillyou have to sit there for hours.It is important to monitor the systems ect i get that but it cant be directly fun?So my q is, is it boring in real life also ?Is it something one just gets used to and find not so bad after some time ?Secondly do the 2 active pilots get to do anything or do they just have to sit there?Can one of them play a handheld game or watch a laptop movie while the other monitors the systems ?Extra question to simmers out there.Do you sit hour after hour in cruise just watching the systems or do you tend to speed things up also ?


  3. I hope they do a BBJ/2/3 version of the 737NG. I dont think there are much difference from the normal version to the BBJ ,just some extra fuel tanks.So i guess im happy as long as someone makes some good liveries for that, PMDG or its users.


  4. When using the 747X and doing changes in the PMDG Options likechange the IRS alignment time, turning of the winglets it does "save" orhave any effect. If i turn of winglets and press ok, they are still there.Im using Windows 7 64bit. I have PMDG MD11 and 747 installed on FSX SP2.No other addons. It has been like this the entire time using this setup.I am also pretty sure that this happend the last time i used Win XP 32 bit


  5. Hi, when trying to land the 777 with ils i often experence that is tunes to the worng runway, the oposite....f.ex i want to land on 17, but i get the 35 dme and course on the PFD. i have set the corrent runway on de fmc dep/app and nav rad page. even though it tunes to the wrong one. any ideas? it happens on many diffrent airports


  6. (i have a lot of friends that are from the region so it was by all means not meant like that...i used them cause its a korean air on the picture...but i guess you cant say anything these days without it being racist or offend somebody :/)back to the point...i couldnt fint anything on this on the boeing site...though its hard to look when you dont know what it is :(
