Hey Ryan, Did you ever end up getting a Retina Macbook and trying this out? I'm considering one and would love to hear results on FSX performance. If you know of any other source you can direct me to, that would be great as well. Much appreciated, Brandon Burkley

Thanks man, just saw that above after I asked :Doh:

Same here, have all the manuals on the Pad but need a better way to flip to certain pages in a hurry. Does anyone know of an App other than iBooks that is better for searching through PDF docs? Thanks,

Working the weekend over here in LA despite the 80 degree weather (the life of a public accountant). Can't wait to get home to fly this thing. Thanks Ryan!

I'm totally in!

I would have to agree on the support end man, practically nonexistent there. They couldn't even issue me a refund after they charged my credit card twice by accident. Told me I could have any other aircraft for free. Now I'm just waiting it out for their 737 (when it actually is complete). I like Captain Sim for their more "vintagey" Boeings. I wish their systems modelling was better but you can't ask for everything I guess. Their 707 is my favorite so far. Nice break from all the hi-tech goodness we have with the NGX.Anyways, just my 2 cents.Best of luck on the search for a good 727 my friend.Cheers,

Try out Captain Sim, I have the -100 and -200 and they're pretty good. Been out for awhile now too so the service updates are pretty mature.I should mention, Captain Sim's stuff isn't even close to PMDG's systems simulation, just an FYI :wink:Best,

I do the same with FlightAware Zach, and it's really coming to life. I know the price was the only thing that made me hesitate at first, but got lucky and they had a 20% off sale right when I was thinking of buying it. Plus, once we have this:http://www.pfpx.com/we'll be able to import even more realistic routes, etc.Just a thought, wonder if PMDG would ever consider working with Aivlasoft to adapt this software for the 777 EFB, I know they mentioned it was a possibility they would include that option. I understand the T7's EFB interface is quite a bit different, but it would be awesome if Aivlasoft could create an EFB plug-in type software for the 777 and that way save PMDG some of the grunt work creating a whole new computer within our computer. Be that as it may, Aivlasoft's EFB as it stands, serves as a great stand-alone EFB add-on for airline ops or any aircraft in my opinion.

I know people have got Aivlasoft EFB working on iPad. Check it out:http://www.aivlasoft.com/products/index.htmlI think there's some explanation on how to set that up in the forums. I own Aivlasoft EFB and have it working in tandem beautifully with my Macbook Air via Parallels. Maybe someone could comment about the iPad...

Amazing work Rich, been stalking the forums here as I'm back home for the Holidays - it's been a tease. Once I get back to LA, I'll definitely be downloading Aloha and this. Makes for a good release to pair with Ketchikan.Cheers!

Incredible! Thanks for sharing, hope an FSX version comes out as well...

Check out the tutorial that Ryan has written, pretty good guidelines in there. As far as when, there are various speed constraints per different flap settings. I usually use the speed tape as a guide as it has little tickmarks (for example "1") when you should put the flaps up to 1 after takeoff. You can consult the operating manuals for more in depth information.As far as real world ops, I'm sure there are some NG pilots in here that could help...

Hi William,I do this flight all the time and don't have any problems. What I have noticed is that some of the speed / altitude restrictions that come with Navigraph are a little off. Make sure you cross reference the actual charts to what the FMC has loaded. Since I do this flight very frequently, I know that those particular SIDs and STARs are a bit off and I always make edits before departing.A good place to find (at least US) charts for free is flightaware.com.As for the course freezing issue, I am at a loss :-/Hope that helps!Cheers,

No worries Morgan, best of luck with the new card!

Don't know if you're interested in buying a used card but I'm selling my EVGA GTX 470 Superclocked. Great card. Check it out here: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/346639-evga-gtx-470-superclocked-for-sale/
