Thanks, Kyle!

Hello! Was going to fly a delivery flight from KBFI to ENGM today, but encountered a problem shortly into the flight while entering enroute wind data on the route data page. Some of the waypoints was entered as for example N6630.0W08000.0, resulting in a waypoint called WPT1 in the FMC. When entering wind data, all the panels froze. PFD/ND froze, FMC didn't work, and no other functions worked either. Even tried disconnecting generator and battery, but nothing happened. Wind entry into "normal" waypoints work fine. Second picture below is after reloading of the saved flight (I can send this to PMDG if you'd like). Sorry about the grainy picture, saved them as GIF in stead of JPG/PNG... Problem reproduced once, but second time it worked fine.

For example VATSIM has the possibility to print out the METAR. For example http://metar.vatsim.net/engm . I have no idea how to program guages, but perhaps that could be possible to use?

Mr. Hansen is correct, the only scheduled traffic to ENRO is by DOT LT, mostly using Saab 340. Braathens did serve the airport using Fokker 50, 737-500 and later 737-600 and 700, but that is several years ago now. Braathens was taken over by Scandinavian Airlines in 2004.

Hello, I am using ASE, and having difficulties when flying to and from ENGM. The old airport of Oslo was ENFB, which was closed in 1999 I believe. That ICAO now belongs to a oil platform in the north sea, however ASE or FSX still place it where the old Oslo Airport was. This seems to cause the weather in the sim to jump between the relativly smooth inland weather of Oslo and the rough north sea weather, often with high wind speed and direction changes. Is there any way to remove ENFB from loading weather?

If you reinstall the zip you have, you will get the original NGX as it was on release. I believe you then can install the SP1 on top of that to get your NGX up to date.

Not sure if the thrust thing is the same as you report, however, even after SP1, with the AT disarmed, the thrust increases to 37-40% on final approach with the gear down. In the real aircraft, this does indeed happen when the A/T is armed, but not while A/T is disarmed. On the 800 (RL), gear down selected, the A/T is often disarmed due to this, in order to get the speed down efficiently. On the NGX however, I have to hold the F1 key in order to keep the correct N1 value, if not, the engines spools back up to 37-40%, and you can see the thrust levers move forward.

I really hope PMDG would concider creating an expansion to the Dash-8 to include the -100.. the little warrior is serving dozens of airports in Norway in any weather condition.. I would, and I think I speak for many more, greatly appretiate that one

Hello, I've had some issues myself. It seems to work if I enter the shop first, instead of trying to login from the front page.. worth a try at least

I've been unable to log in via the login option on top of the website. A workaround that worked for me was to go to the shop, select a product, go to checkout, and log in from there.. strange, but it worked

Heisann Andreas! The HUD can be activated on any of the NGX aircraft though the simulator options in the CDU - so yes, you can have the HUD on your -800 as well, not just the BBJs.

You can see the nose of the real NG when you lean forward. You can also catch a glimpse of that in one of the AOA videos (the first one I believe).

I've noticed the NG missing the altitude at level change several times in real life too Up to about 150 or so feet, and then starts a slow descent, and usually enteres alt hold either at the exact altitude, or plus/minus 20-30 ft. Mind you, this is usually when the weight is low, not so much of a problem when you're carrying a full load of passengers.

I believe it's been said that the debugging code isn't removed from the aircraft yet, so the performance can't be 100% judged from the current beta version. It may be even better once the debugging code is removed
