mmh and PMDG releases nothing to you? shame on it... -.-what else, a "partly voice controlled" should be also cool. i hate a second voice to hear "my" feedbacks on checklists...sounds a bit schizophrenic^^If its not too time wasted, please think about for the "voice junkie's"TiA

hi pilots,1. Be sure you're not using spoilers/gear on descentturns together with lvl-change.2. During descent, 20° bank or greater Turns with lvlch and flaps lower than 15 could result in an excessive produce of drag, which gives automatically a high rate of descent in lvlch mode. Certainly, the weight is also a factor. 3. It could also a possible aircraft.cfg error the reason for it.

... EA hmm? Did you mean the newest Beta-Version published as a full version, NFS World? :( :( Yeah, you are right. Let PMDG the time they need to get quality like MD1 or 747..aah like all products by them. Any other philosophy is profit-thinking and not serious and ends up in a disaster.In addition, the quality by PMDG becomes a manner with us and i really hope so this manner continue in future.

i like the B777 too. Its amazing to see it live.But someone says the 777 is the 737 only bigger.....???!! do you know about the 777? I think between both are worlds, not only on the flight deck!! The philosophy is completely different! :( And please give me a pic where a B737 cockpit looks like a 777 ones!!?!?!? :( And for all they think they are the same A/C with different dimensions.....1. make the both type ratings and you will find the different!! 2. Look in the FCOM.The B777 is very complex and everyone who knows really about it would love it!But i understand the others, they say, we would like to have an airplane we feel to fly, like B727 A300 or B707. But today they becomes rare and the last hero's are also equipped with systems like INS and/or IRS, NAV funktion and ALT funktion compared with an ATS. And im sorry what is with the B727 from Flight-1? Is it so bad? Or the old B707 from captainsim, these are really old bombers and not bat... :(I fly them, but i would also fly them from PMDG XD

hi Andrea1, FAA/FAR req says: 35' about the end of the TODA. Thats must not be the end of the runway.TODA= useable runway lenght + clearwayclearway: max. 50% of TORA (useable rwy lenght)Requirements for clearway: 75m to the right and left of extended rwy-centerline, max. 50% of TORA and a climb gradient of 1,25% starts at the end of the rwy.Trough this area no objects(exeeding 0.9m) may protrude.For LIRQ, you are climb/rwy limited, due to missing clearway and obstacles in vincinity of aerodrome. You could use for testing YBHM / Hamilton I. - Australia. There you have the best testing conditions^^Hope that help`sMfG

Hi simmers,first, i'm mighty impressed by the MD11. I buy it, taste it and read the books. After them, i was so energized and start a flight. I searched for a route and began the flight planning. But after 2 min i stoped the flight planning, because i haven't the tables and charts. I searched in the manuals again, and again, and again, but i couldn't find a page about flight planning...now i was angry. I know about all systems, procedures, techniques, etc..., sitting in the flight deck and can't start a flight, because i don't know how much fuel i need for the flight. It's like a burger without mett. It dosen't taste.I use the B737 and the B744 by PMDG and was satisfied from the beginning of use. I found the needed manuals for system,flight planning and so on.ok, i know there is a function in the FMS. But this is not realistic. I can't belive, that the FMS know about the wind on cruise level, or about the runway conditions like the length, hight, slope...I would like to depart from Quito or St. Martin with the MD11, but i can't do this without tables where i can determine the correct masses. And what about the FF in cruise for checks, or inflight planning. What about the correct values for step climb and weight adjustments for fuelburn and so on...I notice that there exist 14 pages for needed landing distance. But where are the rest???I hope so this is a mistake and PMDG release flight planning chartsMfG
