And I responded to your inaccuracies in a civil manor, without the WOW. Only troll here I see is you. Like I said, your 5 minutes of FSX with your 1 CTD isn't enough to make an educated conclusion.

I had this problem in FSX and FS9. After looking for when and why it occurred. It seemed to happen to me whenever another pilot joined the session. Almost like it was processing the model of the aircraft that joined. I solved it by switching to FSInn.

Forums excite you?

You had 1 CTD and have already solved it to say it's the scenery? Look above, others that don't have it, are having CTD as well.

I had a CTD flying SEA to SJC using ORBX. It happened 5 minutes into the flight . I have done dozens of flights elsewhere without any problems. I think its the ORBX. I never used FSX till the NGX came out so I can't be sure.

SPAD is a great program. It even adds a altimeter to the radio stack. Be sure to remove the saitek driver for it first otherwise it will act weird and change freqs on its own.

I didn't disable anything and have no problems. I did have the livery manager issue but that was a easy fix. I just removed the "read only" option. Considering the sales of this were most likely huge I would say the number of problems was small. A lot of problems that have been posted could be resolved by reading the manual. It has to suck to actually have real issues because I have been flying this non stop since the release and it is a incredible aircraft. Come to think of it, the software has caused 1 problem. All my other aircraft are rusting and collecting dust now.

I absolutely love the heavy bass sound of the engines as you cut the throttle or at TOD and the A/T cuts it. Awesome sounds.

This aircraft is incredible. The sounds are exactly like my last flight (it was a 737-700 but still not much difference there). I have only experienced one problem in 8 flights. It was my last flight. Passing 24k on my way up to 370 I had a CTD with no indication other than "A Fatal error has occurred". It was after departing SEA. I am doubtful it was a PMDG issue. I had recently added scenery to SEA area. If not that , it could be anything since I didn't really use FSX until this was released. I am a convert thanks to this aircraft. Again, Great Job!!! It's now the benchmark for FS add ons going forward.

My most recent flight on SWA ( I know it was a 737 not a 738) the pilot was a big fan of speed brakes. Crossing over Cape Canaveral to crossing over Orlando headed to TPA he used them quite often. Made for a interesting ride. I imagine that is how he managed the speed in advance of approach.

Fellow pilots, There's no doubt that It is annoying for all of us... but I'm pretty sure that the guys at PMDG are even more annoyed than we are. I bet that they've spent day and night in the office in the past few days and have taken lots of precautions to ensure availability of the product. And then a few mad people trash the whole party with their DoS attacks. And now they are probably giving their best to fix it.We all will forget our disappointment once the bird is in the air. We should encourage the guys instead of shouting at them. Just my 2 cents. Dirk

Ahh Yup! Still unable at 13:30 EDT. "Technology, it's wonderful when it works" This isn't some Gov't plan to take our eye off the crashing world markets. Nahh couldn't be. Oh S*#T there's a black helicopter over my house.

Just finishing up a short flight BUR to SJC. My impression is WOW!!!!!!!!! This is a incredible aircraft. everything is smooth. The sounds are beautiful. GREAT JOB!

I can't find the 2D view of the pedestal. I have been searching the manuals.

I am getting great fps. Just playing with it now. Can't figure out how to view the throttles in 2d mode yet. Reading the manual to seek my many questions. So far this aircraft is everything I hoped it would be. Great Job!

I cant get past it confirming my address

I got halfway thru the purchase process and it crashed. Kinda figured it would. This aircraft has been much anticipated.

I gotta say besides their awesome products, they have a brilliant sense of humor. They hit all the right buttons. Some may get irritated but I think it's funny.

This is new. It was a coming soon page before, now it has everything but the Purchase button at the top

It has changed. Only thing missing now is the purchase button. YAY!

If you check their Facebook page there are 5809 likes. If half of those purchase it I would call it a success

I think I just peed a little ;)

Most likely the responses that got it locked. I am sure PMDG and more importantly the FS community would like to tap your 1500+ hours of experience. I know I for 1 would.
