OT: Took some photos at an airshow today (Blue Angels, F-22, V-22)
Seeing those picture makes me look forward to Seafair in August here in Seattle. The Blue Angles come so close to my house that I could take a similar pic from my roof with a 35mm lens on my Nikon!

NGX Realistic Range
Here is the schedule for the Swiss flight op. by Privat Air in all Business Class config.(all times local).KEWR 22:40LSZH 11:30+1LSZH 17:00KEWR 21:20Fare for next weekend Dep. 3/22, Ret. 3/25 = $7415.00 (in case any one is intersted to going to Munich for the 777 preview)As you can see it is N/S both directions, I believe they have additional auxillary fuel tanks installed in the cargo hold to enable the WB nonstop (but I could be wrong about that).

Found an MS Flight sim petition
I just signed.... but 660 signatures or even the goal of 2500 signatures isn't going to be enough to change anything, you'd need more like 10000 to make MS even notice.

Safari browser issue with pmdg website
Thanks, that worked ,I feel a little like a noob, . Curious why I had to do that with Safari and not IE though. I use each equally, and never noticed anything like this before.

Safari browser issue with pmdg website
Hey guys I know your busy with the NGX release and all but I noticed this today. When I navigate to the NGX page on precisionmanuals.com with the Safari browser I get an old page that says NGX Coming Soon! This doesn't happen on IE though. I've attached a screen shot for you.

PMDG 737NGX Vs. Ariane 737-900er
IBTL I also considered the Ariane also to fill the short flight role in FSX. I was using the LDS 767 and that just wasn't feeling right. But when I almost chocked on the price I went with the less expensive Wilco/FeelThere E-Jets, and boy am I thankful. The E-jets are a great alternative to the 737 if you are only doing 1-3 hour flights and about half the price of the Ariane. The flight model is nice and the CDU/FMC is decent too plus lots of repaints if you buy the MCPhat Studios livery pack. All in all it has been a great plane while I wait for the NGX. I even took it on a world tour and visited every country in the world (plus some territories/colonies) with a runway long enough (it only took 472 hours and 18minutes of flight time over a two year period).

Boeing-Field - Frankfurt 737-800
Yes, it is possible. The separation issues are mainly from flights going To/From the USA East Coast and Mid-West after all there are only 5 airports on on the USA West Coast I know of with non-stop european commercial traffic (CYVR, KSEA, KPDK, KSFO, KLAX) Here is the best website to check the current NATs https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/PilotWeb/ then select "Tracks" from the menu bar. You will notice that today's northern most eastbound NAT "NAT U" begins at VIXUN then proceeds LOGSU.N49W50.N50W40.N51W30.N53W20 and finishes at MALOT. Also Lufthansa is not unique in this kind of routing, below are the tracks for BA to Heathrow, Air France to CDG and Delta to Schiphol. http://flightaware.com/live/flight/BAW48/history/20110803/0155Z/KSEA/EGLLhttp://flightaware.com/live/flight/AFR309/history/20110802/2050Z/KSEA/LFPGhttp://flightaware.com/live/flight/DAL232/history/20110802/2040Z/KSEA/EHAM Again hope this helps

NGX psychological exam
1. NO2. NO3. NO4. YES5. NO6. YES (see explanation) I PASSED!! EXPLANATION: I will have to wait until Aug 12 to purchase the NGX to maintain marital harmony. My 10th Aniversary is Aug 11 and I know my wife won't complain about the small amount I spend on the NGX vs. the present she will get on the 10th.

Boeing-Field - Frankfurt 737-800
Hey Guys, Here is today's filed flight plan for DLH491 KSEA-EDDF per flightaware.com as you will notice there is no NAT track in it. The Europe bound flights from Sea-Tac fly too far north for the NAT Tracks.

Hoping for a cargo variant.
The 737-700C is a variant of the BBJ airframe. Here is a picture of the N529PP with its cargo door open.http://jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6821335&nseq=3

Hoping for a cargo variant.
Yes the C40 is the same as a 737-700C but there are some private operators of the 737-700C (example: N529PP). However, so far there are no commercial operators. I would think Alaska Airlines might order some as their 737-400C's and -400Combis are getting up there in age.

PMDG 737NGX Pricing and Availability
Thank you to all of the PMDG staff for all of your hard work. I will be purchasing all of the packages. I have one question, that was not addressed in RSR's original update, will there be a 737-700C? I like to use Just Flight's Air Hauler program and an 737-700C would be a great addition to my fleet.ThanksMichael

First Destination
First I'll do some test flights between KRNT, KBFI, KMWH and KPAE. Then delivery in Alaska Airlines livery to KSEA. First revenue flight will be ASA600/ASA619 KSEA - KLAS - KSEA in the 900. Then and ETOPS run ASA875/ASA854 KSEA - PHLI - KSEA in the 800. After that a trans-con ASA004/ASA003 KSEA - KDCA - KSEA using the RWY 19 River Visual Approach in the 800.This should keep me busy for a week.
