Walter, Did you submit a ticket to report the issue? I'm sure this can be squeezed into SP1. Rob

Hi, having watched some of the beta videos there is one tiny thing I've noticed: the number 6 on the MCP is not the same that can be seen on RW photos or videos. Could it be software version related or even customer option? See http://www.airliners.net/photo/Malaysia-Airlines/Boeing-777-2H6-ER/0278843/ for example. I hope you guys won't consider this as rivet counting Regards, Robert

In my understanding there are two options - maybe and old and a new one - on the RW aircraft. The one modeled in the NGX is the rotary knob, the other one is spring-loaded, ie. it can be turned 45° to the left/right and the longer it is kept in a position the faster the value increases/decreases. Personally I´d love to see this added in SP2 with the option so it is synched with the FO´s setting. Rob

Animation jump in flap retraction finally fixed

Ryan, would you mind giving us an idea of the changes/improvements that are to be expected in SP2? The plane is just great, there are only a couple of tiny things which would make it even better Rob ps. not sure whether it´s a good idea (maybe too early) but what about opening an extra topic for SP2 related things to discuss (kinda would like to be fixed/improved topic) -
Thanks for the answers, but he clearly mentioned that thrust reduction occurs 2:30 mins after hitting TOGA, not at a pre-selected altitude. This might be an option not modeled, though. Robert

Hi, I´ve just heard of the time-triggered thrust reduction from a pilot. This means that CLB N1 is not initiated by an altitude but by a certain time after takeoff has been initiated (pressing TOGA). Does anybody have some information on this? I guess this isn´t modeled in the NGX. Cheers, Robert

Hi, no problems at all (so far) with the Z77. I was equally annoyed with my P8P67 (which sometimes started normally but more often had to be restarted 5 times) so I bought the Z77 yesterday. The P67 chipset is well known for this issue and the workarounds/recommendations don't seem to help a lot. Robert
-
Hi,I've seen on several real life pictures that the FMC thrust mode on the upper EICAS is showing "---" if there is no thrust setting selected, alternatively also above the N1 compressor speeds.I guess this is a software version related thing - would it be possible to include it in the future? With the NGX it's either showing TO or nothing as default (can be setup within the a/c options)The attached picture shows what I mean.Thanks,Robert

AD 2002-19-52 Do you guys know about that? center fuel tank
rp1 replied to aberg's topic in PMDG 737NGX | 737NGXu
AFAIK this only applies to aircraft equipped with the old pumps (these are normally placarded). With the new ones (and this is from a specific airline´s FCOM) the center tank pumps must only be switched off prior to departure provided there is less than 500 kgs in it and the pumps can be turned back on after passing 10.000 ft (a/c body angle decreases). Also, with the new pumps the ctr tank can be fully emptied and doesn´t need to be switched off with a given amount left in it.Maybe Andrea can elaborate further on this topic.Robert
