  1. They have to pay separate licensing fees to Boeing for P3D because of the different EULA. The original license agreement with Boeing only covered fsx. This is what happens when you are officially licensed by an aircraft manufacturer. Companies like Carenado don't have license agreements with manufacturers so they don't have to have separate license agreements for different platforms, therefore one price.
  2. Go to their support page through their website and submit a ticket. Also try different browsers for the download, and check firewall settings. Don't be so hasty and make rash decisions. They've been in business since 1996-ish? So I'm sure they're not in the business of ripping people off
  3. Avsim.com check their file library
  4. If Topcat is telling you to do TO-1 plus assumed temp, you have to select the key next to TO-1 first, the 777 will never select it for you. For climb thrust, the FMC automatically selects the highest climb setting that is still below the selected takeoff thrust. Although, some carriers use max climb thrust no matter what
  5. Not, gsx has nothing to do with pmdg ground ops fueling. Yes, your uplift math is correct. I don't know where you heard that TO-1 and TO-2 derates aren't recommended. Maybe a certain airline has rules against it (Emirates didn't even purchase this option) but they are used every day around the world. Just use the cg from the takeoff page in the FMC. Pmdg had their own calculations going on inside the 777 software.
  6. Not sure it's worth an update from them. It's not like they were taking into account vr headset usage when they were developing it from 2008-2011

    You might have trouble accelerating and climbing at higher altitude because of a weather engine problem, or simconnect. I know there is an issue where simconnect makes the air get warmer as you get higher. Try it without clear weather and no simconnect if you do have it.
  8. VS has no speed protection. You're first method would be what I would choose, but as for a second method, use FLCH with 250 until 10k, then change the speed window to 280.
  9. Fmc menu in the equipment options. It's already there
  10. Yeah, they just mean that they have to pay extra attention since the approach phases of flight will happen a lot quicker. Also, AB4 might be used to make the rollout about the same length as using AB2 at sea level, although it's easier to overheat brakes in thinner air. Maybe they have a long turn- around time for cool down
  11. Vapp would still be 144 as that is based on indicated airspeed. True airspeed would be much higher at quito cause of the altitude, as would the groundspeed unless you had major headwinds. I did a md11f landing at the old quito airport in fsx at Mlw, with no wind, and my vapp was 168, but my groundspeed was around 188! Lol.
  12. You are flying an airline that has the digital option. Look at the bottom of your pfd and you'll see the clock
