    777 2D Cockpit?

    I did not say or imply that the whole community should stop anything.This is the PMDG forum and that is who my reply was pertaining to...Chill out!

    777 2D Cockpit?

    Why doesn't people realize thaT 2D panels are over, done, fini, outdated, not to be done!!! Get over it!!
  5. I'd sure be interested how he did it, but don't know which values in the cfg are the capasity.
  6. There is a tutorial that came with the product (a good one too). go to C:\FSX(Where ever you put it)\PMDG\flightmanuals anf it is there!
  7. Besides what denotes a major and minor problem...jusy wondering!

    777 2D Cockpit?

    PMDG has stated many times that they will niot offer a 2d cockpit after the origonal 747!
  9. I installed the C172n And the float and ski do not show up in the select aircraft in FSX. before anyone asks, i have show all variations checked!
  10. It seems to me if you are going to put a warning in red and large letters, you should take a look at the PMDG general section and delete ALL non related topics. I'm not trying to be troublesome, but what does Prepar3d developing a weahrter radar have to do with pmdg?? Just asking
  11. Simmers will argue about anything!!!
  12. Since PMDG is making the DC6, I thought I would put this video on here for all PMDG fans to enjoy, but it got deleted!! Soooooo, I'm gonna try again since another topic did not get deleted about the DC6. Here you go!!
  13. DC6 landing on dirt and short runway! Cool!
  14. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN..............COMMUNITY REQUESTS!!! :LMAO:
  15. you have some route discontinuties. the square blocks show that. click on the next leg after the squares and the click on the aquares to set the route!
  16. i WISH ALL OF YOU WOULD GIVE UP ON THE crj AND TJHE -8. bUY THE JS4100 AND BE HAPPY!!
  17. Maybe you should watch this video. It shows a good closeup of the engine fan blades starting at 3:24! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=jxSSceaS4I8
  18. Boeing has chooses longest wingspan for the 777X. As Chicago-based aircraft manufacturer Boeing heads into the future following a better-than-expected 2012 second-quarter net profit of US$967 million, or US$1.27 per share versus the Wall Street consensus of US$1.12 per share, it continues to map out its future widebody strategy that will see new members being added to its popular large twin-engine, long-haul 777 as well as the carbon composite 787 Dreamliner aircraft families. Running ahead in these in-house evaluations is the 323-seat Boeing 787-10X, which will be 5.49m (18ft) longer than the 787-9 variant while burning 25% less fuel than an Airbus A330-300 on a 6,700nm-6,750nm (nautical miles) trip (“Airbus is right on A330 improvement strategy“, 10th Jul, 12). Another study into revamping the highly popular 777 jets which sold a record 200 examples to airlines last year, in the meantime, is understood to be less advanced and whose authority to offer (ATO) from Boeing’s board of directors will not come as early as the one for the 787-10X, which Boeing chief executive Jim McNerney put at “end of this year” or “beginning of next year” for the “perfect next step on the [7]87″ during an earnings conference call with analysts. Nevertheless Boeing is making some progress in the development of 777X, including opting for the largest-even wingspan for the 777X’s supercritical carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) wings. Image Courtesy of Jon Ostrower Largest ever wing According to Aspire Aviation‘s sources at the world’s second-largest airframer, Boeing has in recent weeks chosen the largest wingspan option for the 777-9X, a 407-seat successor to the 365-seat 777-300ER, at 71.1m (233.4ft). While cautioning that the decision to put a largest-ever carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) wing on the 777X is “not final”, these sources say Boeing has declared the 71.1m (233.4ft) wingspan as the “baseline” in presentations and private discussions with potential airline customers, while adding 30m² (322.9ft²) to the 777-300ER’s wing area of 436.8m². This will lead to the largest wing ever produced by Boeing, of which the 71.1m (233.4ft) wingspan is longer than the 747-8′s 68.5m (224.7ft) wingspan, the 777-300ER/-200LR’s 64.8m (212.7ft), the 777-200/-200ER/-300′s 60.9m (199.11ft) and the 787-8/-9/-10X’s 60.1m (197.3ft). In comparison, only the Airbus A380 superjumbo has a larger wing with a wingspan at 79.75m (261.1ft). Boeing was previously studying 4 wingspan options for the 777-9X – 65m (213.3ft) with winglets, 68.6m (225ft) with winglets, 71.1m (233.4ft) with 787-styled raked wingtip, and a 233.4ft option featuring a folding wingtip before settling on the largest one. In doing so, the 407-seat Boeing 777-9X will creep into the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Code F category, which features airplanes with a wingspan between 65m (213.3ft) and 80m (262.5ft) whereas the ICAO Code E category to which today’s 777-300ER belongs includes planes with wingspans 52m (170.6ft) and 65m (213.3ft) and will require costly airport modifications such as runway and taxiway widening and larger aircraft stands similar to those seen before the A380 superjumbo’s entry into service (EIS) in October 2007. Furthermore, building such a large carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) wing very likely leads to increased investment should Boeing opt to construct the largest composite wing ever built at its Everett facilities, although Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) does have a giant 700 metric tonnes autoclave that is 40m long and 8m wide at its Nagoya facility. People familiar with the situation said Boeing has yet to determine a site for constructing the CFRP wing. Separately, Boeing is mulling to eliminate the overwing exit of the 777-300ER which will save 1,000lbs (453.6kg) in weight, the same sources say. This would stretch the separation between the 4 Type A doors on each side of the fuselage to a maximum of 60ft, thereby meeting the US Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) requirement to evacuate 407 passengers within 90 seconds with half of its doors blocked or being unavailable while saving weight. More great aircraft from my fav manufacturer!!!! I foune this article on flight aware, But don't know how to post the url!
  19. I haveb attached a shot of FSX with DX10 prewview off and on. Notice the runway edge lines and ultralight cables in the on shot. Here is a copy of my nvidia inspector and the bottom of my general 10 file.
  20. @stevejp PLease explain what you mean. @theredbaron I do not have FXAA turned on.
  21. What I am trying to say is the actual flight model looks exactly the same. If I turn off DX10 preview, even with the modified shaders, the lines straighten out, aa or no aa!
