I too would like to see bookmarks, but it seems this isn't going to happen anytime soon. In the meantime, make sure you use the index-pages for the manuals and subsequently the indexes for each chapter. With the indexes and using Ctrl+F to search for the Chapter and Section number you'd like, it becomes managable, but not as easily handle as it could've been.

+1 on that low-vis. We were 3 rotating positions in the cockpit, and the guy acting PF while i was PM tried his luck on the low-vis with HGS. However, he forgot to notice the flare-indicators and slammed the thing at -500fpm or something. That ground came up really fast, and it actually sendt a soda bottle flying out of its cupholder. Seeing those running rabbits appear out of the fog, not on your PC monitor, is a completely different experience. However, if you got limited time, the suggested patterns isn't a bad idea. If this is the real deal, you'll have an experienced instructor with you, so if you feel your skills are lacking on the stick & rudder, he's gonna be a lot of help.

Just please don't take the scroll-function away from the EFIS-panel with NGX SP2, Ryan! However functional the click-drag method of the T7 is, it just feels wrong not to scroll scroll-wheels

Well, RNAV is taking over the world. The FAA is still a bit on the analogue side, but you'll have to search far and wide to find medium and greater sized airports in the JAA countries that is not equipped with RNAV/P-RNAV STARs and approach procedures (and of course the CATII / III ils) . Well, that might be a bit of an overstatement, but the old procedures are fleeting more and more with each cycle. The fact is that, in my experience, the pilots too use the modern precision systems rather than cranking up the VOR/DME and ADF. It's just that much more convenient. I'm not saying there isn't any ol' stick 'n rudder flyers around, but at the end of a 8-10-12 hour shift, on your 4th, 7th or10th year on the job, I'm guessing a lot of people opt for the comfy straight in (more or less) STAR to ILS or GNSS/P-RNAV procedure. I myself still light up with joy when I get to do some real work in the sim. Flying arcs, I prefer to bring up the cirular map and use continous HDG adjustment to keep the directional needle at my 90* until it's time to turn onto the inbound. This does indeed increase the work load considerably, keeping up with the published altitudes, speed restrictions, and conducting the approach checks of the plane itself, but that's where I find the most joy in the sim.

Stephen, out of interest, why would you change this? I'd think that PMDG has made this pretty much spot on. And... what is the problem with having a positive nose pitch? I don't see what the problem is, and I can't think of any plane that's flying with a level/negative pitch either.

In the introduction documentation it's mentioned that the T7 automatically switches off certain systems and items to route electircal power to where it's really needed. If you're on the ground, the LOGO lights is one of the prime candidates to be switched off if you don't have a sufficient power supply (running on the APU, for example). The T7 is a smart lady, and does all this for you instead of having you monitor electrical draw and eventually start to blow fuses if things aren't done correctly. If you're mid-air with both generators running without problems, your LOGO lights should however stay on, as far as I know.

What's with the bickering? No wonder the moderators and developers are getting frustrated. Whatever happened to acting civil... As mentioned, weather (temperature in particular) could be a strong factor here. Try the default Clear Skies weather setting without any wx-engines running, and monitor your temps when using the wx-engine. Also, how's your nose pitch when retracting/accelerating? Veirfy engine thrust settings, and check for any ghost key mappings that could cause some havock (maybe your throttle overrides the A/T? If so, that's an easy fix via the PMDG settings). It wouldn't hurt if you gave a rough step-by-step of your actiosn during climb-out either.

Thanks alot, Jim! Do you know what a BEX error is a result of? Is it memory-related?

Thanks! Found the app crash, anyone able to get any info from this?

Hi, I was flying the F1 B200 around the New York area yesterday. On my third leg (EWR-PHL), suddenly a windows system sound (two-note low-to-high pitch sound, it's the default for new mail in Live Mail) started going off every 5-10 seconds or so. A minute or two later, FSX kindly informed me that it was no longer interested in flying. I haven't suffered any CTD's on this computer before, and I've certainly never heard of the combination of windows system sound going off followed by a CTD. Any experiences? Any suggestions or solutions? Unfortunately I didn't note down any error messages (if there was any). EDIT: I have an i7 3820 running on 4.6GHz, my system shouldn't be a problem. I have no add-ons along the east coast, payware nor freeware.

Yeah. I'm not sure if/when I'll try this, as I'm stable at 4.6GHz, with my Noctua NH-D14. It runs FSX smoothly, so I don't really have the need right now.

Do you by any chance remember what your vCore and temps were when you had that config?

Yes, from late may till august we do have an increased rate of convective weather, at least around the capitol area (Oslo) and the rest of the inlands. A little less so along the coast (low-pressure systems floating steadily in from the Atlantic). From August till May, there's rarely any convectivity at all, and all weather is either low pressure systems (bad weather) and high pressure (the few days of nice weather we have during autumn/winter). But the temps fluctuate a lot during summer as well, and we rarely see cumulus clouds on days with bad weather. So if you check back on those webcams at a rainy day, you'll see the type of weather we're accustomed to. Low stratus layers at 3-6thou feet.

Hello folks. I'm very satisfied with my purchase of the OpusFSX software, it is by far the best WX generator I've touched. However, I do most of my flights in Norway, my home country, were stratus clouds dominates the skies. Cumulus and cumulunimbus are far less common. I know other WX generators have/had options to shift the ratio towards the one or the other, but can this be easily done with Opus? I'm not entirely sure what dictates the type of cloud that will appear, neither am I fully aware how Opus will cooperate with other WX-add-ons with this capability. All I want is some good 'ol flat stratus cloud bases, instead of the cotton balls I'll be very thankfull for all and any help!
