i have been thinking about PMDg making a FFS where instructor's stations are made. we can set weather failures, check out systems status, set the plane's position,etc. that will be cool. Is there any possibility that PMDG can do it?

in china GPS is not accurate!

the best way to do it is: select the DEP/ARR page and then select the runway without any VOR/NDB/ILS -----this is called visual approach and then put in the distance your ATC cleared you on the next line. that's it!

no i don't think it has anything to do with the CWS. because it is about position updating.if there is no radio in the range, according to the FCOM the FMC is using GPS and IRS postions! But the problem is as you can see in the pic, no radio updating is being done, how can the radio position (on the right fmc) continues to provide corrdinates?

what about this? is the radio is being tuned? if not, how can the radio coordinates be shown on the page in the right CDU?

i don;t understand: i am at FL 396. the AGL is at least 39500ft Why is the terrain display like this?radio update question: at present there is only one DME used for navigation? how can one DME know where the plane is? thanks

i typed one ICAO code into the POS INIT page. And there goes its coordinate. But if i typed a gate number of that airport it shows NOT IN THE DATA BASE I tried a lot of airports. the problem remains. So, how can i manually modify FSX files to add gates coordinates?

another possibility: you clicked the scratchpad! There will be a green box on it. Click again!

i knew what i did i was asked by ATC to leve off at 26600, so when i reach 26600, the FMC starts the energy compensation program------it slows the speed down to 210 while keeping the MCP alt . After i was cleared to continue to descend, the FMC used VNAV SPD to speed up back to the ECON speed, then that explains why it was in SPD mode( i didn't turn on the Anti-ice this time, and the idle N1 level is 38.6% ) . but what puzzled me was why it didn't change itself back to PTH!So my question is If i am in the SPD mode, HOW CAN I CHANGE TO PTH?

ok i see what the problem is thanks

thanks i will take a try. but i still have a question: where is the PTH prompt in the DES page?

i was in the speed descent. and i couldn't reach the next alt restriction in that mode! how can i change to path descent in the FMC? thanks!

yes, i have been flying the bird since the birth of it. but i paused for nearly one week for that problem. i am to try the activation package PMDG sent me. Let's see if it works. for Christ's sake, i did

i have the same problem? any one can fix that activation problem ! PMDG!!!!!
