In Airline2Sim video the consultative pilot said that according to his company the final reserve fuel always should be 920 kilo. To my, simming opinion, it is quite a huge amount of fuel. For a 1 - 1,5 hours route, about 30% of fuel is a final reserve in spite of the fact that alternative airport also included in a plan. And with maximum commercial load (78 passengers + 13 kilo luggage per passenger) ZFW is 25,5 K => take off mass is always near maximum restriction (29K). So I always wanted to ask how it is in other airlines? Do they have the same constant final reserve or it could be variable according to calculations like simming fuel planners provides? In op.manual it is said that if you plan landing with bleeds ON you should set landing altitude on a pressurization panel +500ft, but pilot flying never do it in Airline2Sim video. Is it also a variable point which is not so important and can differ from company to company?

I had the same problem: FSX crashed when I choose PMDG 737 in the menu. The problem was caused by fault signals from my joystick. So try to disconnect your joystick to find out the problem.

737 is universal. Flights from 20 minutes to long haul flights taking few hours and etops procedures are applicable. PMDG knew exactly which model have to be the most popular. I don't have 777 as I think that addon for such unstable software as FSX shouldn't have such problems as OOM errors. And overlocking is needed always, as the more performance you get (especially from CPU) the more nice and smooth quality picture you have.

I almost comleted the course and did not understand, may be about 15 % of information because of the rapid speech. For instance the reason of changing fuel quantity in FMS two times before take off. So, some short briefing with main points, in print version would be enough. Anyway, thank you for your attention.

I'm the one who bought you training after watching promo video about flight deck........ And I'm really disappointed. English is not native language to me. I didn't have any problems to understand promo video, but it was very hard to understand accent in all other movies especially rapid speech. And you don't have any additional materials which can help to understand movies better. In your further works, please, do not forgive about other parts of the world, publish additional materials or improve the language and you will widen the audience, significantly.

Does anybody know how to enter offset wayponts in FMC ? There is an explanation in the manual, but there are no examples how It should look like ? 1. An offset waypoint is a set of coordinates determined by a selected radial and distance from a previously defined or database waypoint. An “*“ following the parent waypoint denotes an offset waypoint. More than one offset waypoint is allowed from one parent using ~ ~ ~ etc., as identifying notation. 2. The entries required to establish an offset waypoint are the radial from the parent waypoint in degrees and tenths of degrees, along which the offset is established and the distance from the parent waypoint to the offset waypoint.
