Noooo In every topic you start, I always look for the images of the 747 cockpit. And now there will be any images of the interior???? Please post them!!

Mr. Randazzo, when can we see some pictures of the new 744???

Hi to everybody, I've a question about installing the NGX on a second PC. I'm working on a new livery on the 737ngx, and I've no time to do it at home. So I've installed FSX on my laptop and during the working pauses, I work on the livery. But I've to test it in fsx. So I've to install the NGX in the second pc. Is it possible? Are there limited times for installing the aircrafts? Thanks

I think you can say PMDG has the market in its hands! If it moves to XP you'll see a huge part of the market moving to xplane!

Wow, last time I saw this topic, was half lengh respect now. I've discovered XP recently and I was been impressed by the quality of the scenery (default) and the quality of flying. Everyone can do this experiment: take the demo of xplane. Set the situation of landing at ksea and set tail wind. Do the same with fsx. Now land with both simulators. With FSX you can do, with XP you cry. Who's right??? I don't answer. Let you do it! There's also another side to take in consideration for a SH. Xplane is still a bit poor with addons, so the first one who put a good product, becomes the leader at the 100%. Ok, for PMDG, this not a problem, it's a leader, but take in consideration for who wanna make an airbus. Who's there for fsx? Aerosoft, airsimmer, wilco ecc. So it's difficult to take advantage to the others producers and the above all, the market is full! Who's there for xplane? One product, not well made. So the first one puts in the xplane world a good product has the 100% of the market. For pmdg, I think, even if there are a 737 and a 777, no one has the pmdg quality. So also in this case pmdg has the 100% of the xplane market! Selling, 60% or 100% is a great difference from the point of view of the money. Also 'cause xp is multyplatform, that's to say runs on win, mac and Linux, (40% of the users in the world use mac), so it's possible to improve the sells more than only with fsx.

I agree with all of you. Didn't noticed the post for xplane, thanks. There's few sceneries and addons 'cause most of the community is tied with MSFS, and is illogical for a SH developing a scenery/aircraft for a smll part of the community. Now, as reported by the Randazzo's sentence, the market may change and getting better!

Hi to everybody. I've a question for PMDG team. What do you think about xplane10? I've downloaded the demo and I was been shocked by the graphic and realism. Making a comparison between fsx and this simulator is impossbile, the last one wins for everything. here an example This is P3D (but it could be FSX, both are the same) of scenarios default [/ B], that is, you buy it and you see it that way. http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831647_CFGAUTOCREATO.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831649_1.jpg [/ IMG] http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831650_22FPSsu30DITARGET.jpg [/ IMG] Seen well? Ok. This is X-plane10 of scenarios default [/ B], or you buy it and you see it that way. http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831652_airb.jpg [/ IMG] http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831654_XPlane201212.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831655_cityday.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831656_kchQSvTeQoEYvVWMuQaL2WwfMYf6U.jpg [/ IMG] http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831657_full13972503144.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831658_X.Plane.10AD.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831659_XPlane201210.jpg [/ IMG] http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831666_full13972477123.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831667_B17Gxplaneingame01HD.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831668_XPlane201211.jpg [/ IMG] Now ... I say ... but you do not see that these two sim there is a world of difference? Our default FS look like toys designed with crayons. They are worth it. And look, I'm not lying: the screen XP10 I showed you are strictly default [/ B], there is a scene added! But you rightly say, "ok, but FSX and P3D can be improved by putting the addon scenery." And I tell you: "True. But even on X-Plane 10 can be improved by adding the addon scenarios." These are such addon (textures and buildings). http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831669_adelaide1.jpg [/ IMG] http://s9.imagestime.com/out.php/i831670_XPlane10Helsinki.jpg [/ IMG] Not only. If you knew really what it looks like X-plane (I speak of "internal engine" and "graphics capabilities") you would know that X-Plane is vastly superior to FSX and P3D as to DETAIL image. This is because X-plane does not know the word "blur blurry or" in the map's scenes, and this allows us to generate images with unparalleled detail for FSX. Even the well-known designer of alpine mountains, FRANK, has fully demonstrated that the graphics capabilities of X-plane beat [/ B] the graphics capabilities of FSX and P3D. It has proven its mapping Monte Cervino in X-plane to show how amazing is the level of detail that this simulator is able to get (and keep getting a great framerate, no small account). http://s8.imagestime.com/out.php/i831672_28t8gzp.jpg [/ IMG] And you know what my anger more? E 'to see a gem of the genre, X-plane, which is not considered (almost) no one to blame for our stubbornness and greed in wanting to remain at all costs with a title (FS) which is ALWAYS been less than x -plane. Because this is the absolute truth. X-Plane is a simulator that if it had been equipped with all the avalanche of addons that have been "wasted" on FS (scenarios, airplanes, etc.), now would be a monstrous thing. It would be one thing you do not even imagine it! But since it is not ... is partly our fault too. We had the power to pass on x-plane. We had the power to make it famous. We had the power to attract all the SH of this unique title (which by its uniqueness also has the advantage of also be used not only on Windows and MAC). And we have all these things rejected [/ B], we did marameo, and now we find ourselves after 10 years (ten years!) To fly with pseudo simulators like FSX and P3D that if they landed in a bit heavy "crash" and that's it. We fly with pseudo simulators that allow us to land behind an ultralight aircraft in the wake of a Jumbo Jet 400 tons without the existence of the wake turbulence that we would crash. Structural failure? Do not have them, do not exist. Wake turbulence? Do not have them, do not exist. Bird strike? Do not have them, do not exist. Ice that accumulates on the wings and changes the lift of the plane? We did not, does not exist. Ground effect? We did not, does not exist. And these would FLIGHT simulators? No, these are toys (excluding PMDG products obviously). Toys that we love them and we must stick together only "vice", while the other side was a simulator with two balls so he could do great (in fact already makes, all the things I mentioned makes already) and have turned our backs for years. Now I think PMDG is the most important SH for the FS experience, and most probably any his decision is able to move flight simmers from a simulator to another. And if PMDG moves, the flight simmers move, and then the other SH move. It's a chain. So my question is why have you not ever considered Xplane? If you convert your last three products (NGX, 777 and 747v2) for this simulator i think we'll see drastic change!!! Hope some of you will answer! Thanks

I've found on the FCOM1 the table I'was looking for. On page PD 30.1 FCOM1

ok thanks a lot. I'll do a check.

Thanks Fabo, I'll do a check on the Fcom1.I'm not ugraded with the sosftware you can find on the net, so I'll take a look also at Smartcockpit.com.Thanks a lot

thanks, but I prefer the old way, with paper and pencil on one hand and a calculator on the other one. So this is why I asked for a tabel of the fuel consuption of the 737.

Hi to everybody.I've a problem with the ngx, that's to say I don't find a table or scheme in the manuals for calculating the fuel.In the 747 pmdg there a chapter to explain the fuel and tabels for indicatin the fuel consumption referring to the altitude and distance.For the ngx I dont find anything like this.So how to do it?Thanks

thanks brandon

when will be the November comparison screenshots?Thanks

I remember when fsx was coming out, we had lots of pictures of various parts of the world (Africa, USA, Paris, Frankfurt, Germany, England and Tokio.) Many aspects of the airports and details, like animals, dolphins, birds, seaports, and various aircrafts (b747, b737, cessna, money ecc.) ecc.We had videos and pictures about all what I've said.Now for flight what have we? pictures and video about hawaii, ONLY HAWAII.And for the aircrafts? 2 or 3. No more and no one liner!!!!My conclusion comes from what I see. Flight will be only hawaii with aircrafts which are useful for flying over an island. No more. 'cause a liner shoud be useless over a single island!!!This is my think
