Hi guys, What about at night, when yous are the last flight at night. What do yous do? Do yous shut down the full a/c (apu, ground connections, battery, NAV lights...etc)? Or how does the last flight of the night get left for the night till the next morning? Thanks

I've downloaded the latest the latest makerwys (4.4.1.0) and the latest FSUIPC (3.9.8.0) and did the rebuild of RC scenery. Also, I made sure "interact with AI" was ticked. But when i'm taxing out to the runway, the a/c infront of me will not line up on the runway when direct to do so, they just turn on all lights and stay there without ever moving. I've tried looking for a solution to this but nothing is coming up. Any ideas?

Hi.Just got Radar Contact 4.3 for FS9. So set up everything like the manual says. But my question is, Radar contact will not have control over my AI for Traffic 2004. The AI stick to the FS9 ATC and it becomes confusing while i'm trying to talk to ATC and the AI are doing it at the exact same time. Is this normal?Stephen

Got a wee problemo guys,Ordered in my new joystick, it's a "Logic 3 Pro Flight 2". So set everything and calibration as well. Jumped in FS9 to try it out and found out that all my aircraft make a slow bank to the left. I tried to re-calibrate my joystick but nothing helped. This only started happening since I got this joystick.Everything in my payload and fuel is balanced. On the calibration page, everything is central.Anyone got a solution?Stephen

What's wrong with wanting a bit of a view these days?What I meant was, is there nothing available as if you where looking from a pax view? But Ryan gave an answer with-out hassle. Thanks Ryan. Stephen

There's no cargo door on the left hand side of the aircraft... Though i'm assuming you meant on the right hand side and you are able to open the cargo doors on the right?I don't think it's possible to open the right hand side door at all, just the left hand-side front and rear pax doors.Stephen

Or make things much simple for yourself if you are not use to the FMC. Delete the discontinuity and everything should all join up ;)

Anyone think I would be better posting it somewhere else? ... Maybe not the right forum?Stephen

Hi Alan,exactly what he mentioned to the first question.Though to your second one, it does depend on company SOP, a lot of them will state that the pilot flying (PF) should return to manual braking around 80kts. Stephen

What do you mean by, "now they are gone" what did you do for that to happen? Did you install something for that to happen, or was it a usual strange one, turn on the computer and everything is mucked up? You kinda need to make it a bit clear for us.Any chance you have turned the volume down? :( Stephen

You sure all your keyboard keys are free? Meaning they are not stuck down, you aren't touching the trim buttons... if not, try this;Start up a flight at the end of the runway and don't program anything in the FMC or autopilot. Take off and do a full circuit (without autopilot) then when you come back around to land, see if you still get the problem this time without having programmed anything for autopilot or FMC. Remember though, this time YOU will have to control the trim settings with no aid for A/P!By the way, just a quick thought as I was writing this out, make sure you have the proper settings in the "ALT / AIRCRAFT / REALISM". That has a bad habit of causing a few problems I've noticed.Also, make sure you have the up-to-date version of the PMDG.Let me know how it goes after you have tried that out.Stephen

Hi,I get this problem to, take it no one has a solution to it I guess? Stephen

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing? Should help, if not let me know.stephen

Hi guys,How you all doing? Wasn't sure where to post this, so put it here because I was involving the PMDG MD-11.I was going through my PMDG MD-11 sounds the other day and was listeing to some of the engine sounds. I came across one of the files that is the sound of the take-off power. Can't remember exactly, but i'm sure a few people have named it the "grind" sound I think... :( What I was wondering if it was possible to turn up the volume of a specific sound file (eg, the "grind") I've got the engine volume up to max in the FS itself but it doesn't really help here the engine sounds that nice unless I lower the other volumes to almost zero. Is that possible and am I making sense for a start? :( Thanks guys,Hope you've all had a great weekend.Stephen

Is there nothing available on file library at all for the wing view? Just a guess...

Guys... I'm just saying this well in advance because something inside is telling not to ask this...I've got FS9 in Spanish, because I was living in Spain at the time I bought it. So, when the FS9.1 update came out, I installed the update in the Spanish version.But my question is... (and yes I know i's been YEARS now and a little bit too ask it now :( ) but is it possible to change the language settings from total Spanish to total English?Before anyone says it. Yes I did search but no one actually had an answer to it. Just a debate about buying the proper language version.Tah guys,Stephen

Nah. Think that would help? I didn't load the FSCrew panel last night and the brakes still failed, though this time with a hitch of difference. After I touched down, spoilers deployed and the auto-brakes began working (I couldn't belive it :() then the problem came as quick as I was racing down the runway, at 115kts - 125kts (-ish, around there somewhere) they cut off without notice and I didn't click anything bar "x" as this is my reverse thrust. So... I took off again and on my second landing, this time spoilers deployed and the auto-brakes didn't even come into action :( I don't have a Scooby-Doo what is up with her now-a days. All worked fine then it started crumbling...Will try deleting the FSUIPC.INI file and see how that goes. Tah very much for the help guys.Stephen

Hi Dan,Well I load the FSCrew flight from the PMDG menu, panel state menu. Do you think that is what is maybe causing the problem?Stephen

Hi guys,well I have been having this problem recently as well. After touch-down, my auto-brakes completely cut off and I have to use manual braking which work ok. It's just the auto-brakes that fail after landing and I don't have any failures set. Too add to it, I don't touch the brakes on either my joystick nor keyboard until auto-brakes cut off then I have to.No one got any solutions yet?Stephen

Hi guys,Tried looking before I posted but as you can tell, no luck.What it is, is while setting up my MD-11 I always seem to get the CDU2 MENU REQUEST below/above my seat belt/no smoking warnings. I've tried going in the CDU2 menu and clicking buttons but it's just no luck getting the warning away :( Any ideas on what I can do about this?Tah very much,Stephen

Take it this was a pointless question ... :(

Would be a great idea Mark! Like your thinking.I've never even heard of that website before. Hopefully one of the other guys can take a look and discover something :DStephen

Hi guys, First of all, sorry if this is the usual "not another newbie question", but I will make it quick! :( I've always used FS passengers to do my cargo and passengers loads, but since it causes to much problems with the MD-11 PMDG I just sticking to using the PMDG MD-11 load manager. But my question is, if i decide to change the pax, cargo loads after landing during a turn-around, how do I do that without changing the aircraft? - Would it just be simple as going into the "ALT / FUEL & CARGO" menu in FS9 and changing it all there?Sorry again for the daft question guys.Tah, Stephen.

Ok thanks. I will probs end up just leaving FS pax.But one thing I don't know if there is an answer toit is, if i decide to change the pax, cargo loads after landing during a turn-around, how do I do that without changing the aircraft?Thanks again and sorry for being a pain.Tah very much,Stephen
