Hello Ryan,Thanks,Kind RegardsDidier DUBREUILH

Hi There,Is PMDG providing a News Letter on a regularly basis ?If yes, how to receive it ?Kind Regards.Didier DUBREUILH

Hi Andy,OK, I did'nt pay enough attention on my monitor. Actually white marks are located between 2 and 3 o'clock and when zooming a lot, they are very visible.Thanks again Andy, Cheers.Didier DUBREUILH

Hi Andy,Thanks for your reply, I will double immediately check on my monitor and I will let you know.I have a good monitor 1600x1200x32 resolution.If you are looking on the tutorial at pages 66/69/70/71, marks are not visible, perhaps page 72 at 3 o'clock you can see something white ???Cheers

Hi Folks,Firstable thanks and congrats to PMDG Team for this wonderful bird.I have read the Pilot Tutorial several times and now I think I am able to correctly fly this bird, even hand flying which is very easy.In the tutorial, in order to correctly set the EGT needles it is two or three times mentionned a series of white hash marks on the arc on the dial.These white hash marks are not visible on my bird....Does someone discover that these white hash marks were missing on EGT displays ?Kind regardsDidier DUBREUILH

Hi Al and Chris,I asked this Wind Smoothing question because I have flown my PMDG 747-400X only one time for a flight LFPO/DAAG ETE about two hours.This flight was horrible with very frequent wind swings (both speed and direction) giving overspeed or terrible slowdown !So I thank you very much for sharing your experience and I will try to set AsX without virtual stations and enhance route coverage and I will let you know what happen.I also have flown two parts of the VFR IVAO WT2007 and I have been extremely happy with wind smoothing. Perhaps this is because due to cloud coverage I have had to fly between 1000 ft and 3500 ft AGL maximum.Two parts of this VFR WT2007 represent more than 110 legs !I also totally agree with you and we have to encourage Damian, Jim and all the team to pursue their job in improving these incredible pieces of software and in addition to create others like XPlanner... Kind RegardsDidier DUBREUILH

Hi Al,So sorry, I didn't see your previous msg.I also thought that this feature would be added to this SP...disapointed !I absolutely agree with you this feature is very important for fuel calculations especially for liners.I have a question : are you happy with wind smoothing in FsX when you are flying high altitude ?Kind regards.Didier DUBREUILH

Hi There,In As v6.5 there is a very interesting feature : after entering a flight plan we got Average wind speed and Direction in the Nav Log.This was very useful for the computation of fuel to board especially on a Jet Liner like 737 or 747.Unfortunately this feature has disapeared in AsX, there is no mention of average wind in the briefing page.It would be a very good suggestion to add this feature with the next SP. Is this possible ?Kind regardsDidier DUBREUILH
