I'm sure they'd happily sell you an unfinished 744 for $228 million just to see your face!

There's your problem chaps, move over to P3D v3!

Well I'll be damned! So it is! Thanks John

If it is I haven't found it yet, I've checked a few times.

To the PMDG team, As work is ongoing on the 777 for P3D v3 I was wondering if you could add the option to allow automatic arming and engaging of LNAV in the event of a go-around? I know not all carriers have this option installed but I think it's a great feature that reduces pilot workload at a critical phase of flight (see FCOMv2 11.31.31). Virgin Australia have this feature on their 77Ws. Thanks again for your ongoing commitment to this awesome product!

Thanks for the update Robert, great to hear the taxi cam is on its way into P3D!

If the VAS issues have been sorted I'm all in! Probably going to wait a little while before purchasing though until compatibility is ensured with all my addons. Looking forward to a 747 update too Robert

Thanks mate, I love your repaints.

You're very honest!

Ok, now I'm thinking 737 Max!

I hope it's a 787, Boeing have a peach of an aircraft there and I'd love to see its virtual cousin developed by PMDG!

I hear ya Kyle (you "encouraged" me to take part in VAS data collection too), I downloaded your test cards but for me to comply with those requisites is going to take some time, what with life getting in the way etc. But I'll try to gather whatever I can and pass it on, hopefully, I know PMDG will get to the bottom of this issue if an issue actually exists!

You're a clever man Dan! Excellent powers of deduction there buddy.

Test 3 1) As tests 1 & 2. 2) P3D Settings/conditions: No weather, no AI, sat at gate 536 (T5) Aerosoft EGLL, FTX Global, Vector, OpenLC installed. Time of day 11am sim time. Loaded EGLLVHHH flightplan created by PFPX including the SIERRA1G arrival but no approach. 3) Test: I flew the flightplan with a starting VAS of 3.018GB used. I flew in real time (no time compression) and 70nm from TOD I loaded the TD.ILS 25R approach. I landed, and taxied to gate W40 (Taxi2Gate VHHH, NO GSX). After cutting engines I checked VAS usage which was 3.782GB after 11+hrs flight time. Test 4 1) As test 3 2) P3D Settings/conditions: No weather, no AI, sat at gate 536 (T5) Aerosoft EGLL, FTX Global, Vector, OpenLC installed. Time of day 11am sim time. Loaded EGLLVHHH flightplan created by PFPX including VHHH arrival SIERRA1G and approach TD.ILS 25R. 3) Test: I flew the flightplan with a starting VAS of 3.029GB used. I flew in real time (no time compression) and the ping of death began to ring on approach to TD VOR. I continued to fly the approach and 10nm away from the runway threshold I had an OOM. VAS was just over 4GB before P3D shut down. Conclusion: Loading the approach into the FMC being the only variable, one has to conclude that this lead to an increase in VAS consumption over test 3. (N.B. The same livery was used in all 4 tests).
