Hi everyone! I'd like to report a potential bug which results in a CTD. I was flying from Athens to Dubai and while I was cruising at FL330, I entered FL350 in the FMC and autopilot and the aircraft started to climb. Then, I navigated to the CRZ page of the FMC, and clicked on "ECON" (LSK 4L if I recall correctly). This made the simulator crash. I haven't tried to reproduce it, but I guess it will have the same result. Is PMDG aware of the issue? If not, it'd be good to have it fixed in the near future. [i am using the latest version of the NGX] Regards, Panayiotis Tsioufis

I 'm pretty sure Microsoft would never open-source the FS engine. Although this would be totally great for the reasons you mentioned, there is no chance they'll give away such algorithms that are 20 years old.

I'm using 2 Velociraptors (150GB and the other 300GB) and a 750GB 7200 RPM. For FS I only use the 300 one. I don't believe an upgrade to ssd is worth it, since the price is way too high.

I use them both with very good results. :)

Got the same problem too!

Hey I have the same problem! Also, when this prob occurs, the data in the PERF page disappear and i cant enter anything. It's definitely a bug, since when I type a letter it doesnt appear until I change page in the fmc. Please fix it as it is very annoying!

Yeah I think I remember this too! :/

I will also buy them both when the NGX gets out!

I've tried only Aerosoft's EGLL and it is awesome. i would definitely recommend it! :)

My first flight will be from Athens, Greece LGAV (Flytampa's version to be released this week!) to London Heathrow EGLL.

I am getting REALLY disappointed...I just don't care about Xbox and the Kinnect stuff!

it's about to start!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't want to disappoint anyone, but I 've just come across this old post, according to which the 'beta testing' was about to start...this post dates back to December :/ Hope that now the situation is different!http://forum.avsim.net/topic/321101-the-wait-is-almost-over/

Actually they've posted a couple of pictures showing the lower DU at their FB page ;) And they look awesome!

Wow it's so awesome!!! :)There are just 2 things though that are definitely not a problem but i believe they can be improved. The first is the wiper issue with the landing lights on which has already been discussed, and the other is a possible improvement in the roar sound...anyway, i love this bird :D

Stunning! I'm already planning to build a new pc just for this add-on! :)Sorry if answered before, but what about the exterior? Is it finsihed? :S

My problem is that I get very low FPS both in FS2004 and FSX. I mean in FS2004 I get 5-10 FPS while at 30,000 feet with the Wilco 737! What am I doing wrong? And I was wondering if the settings of the 5870 make the things worse, since with the 295 I was getting a lot more FPS. My PC Specs are: Intel QX6800@2,93, 4GB Ram, 300GB Velociraptor + 750GB, HD5870 running @ 1920*1200

Hello Shaum, Thanks for your reply. However, I do have the latest 10.3 drivers installed.

Hey guys!Recently I've had my GTX295 replaced with a Sapphire HD5870 'cause the 295 broke down. However, I am very disappointed with 5870's performance in FS2004 and FSX, for I can't get the AA to work as well as it did with the 295 and the FPS are quite low. I would really appreciate it if somebody shared his Catalyst settings or help me somehow get the AA to work with satisfactory performance.Thank you in advance,Panayotis

I totally agree with you. As far as I am concerned, I would rather see a 777 (like you said) instead of an Airbus plane since AirSimmer will be making A320,A330 and A340 and NextLevelSimulations are making the A380. Some planes that are made previously for FS(like the B737-300,-400,-500, 777) are of poor quality
