I tired Chrome and MSEdge and both don't work. What happens is that on the pw reset page, after introducing the new password and confirming it, nothing happens after pressing "continue". Thanks Apologies. Me stupid. Did not match the password criteria. However, Chrome did not work for me. MS Edge did it.

Hi, Happens to me as well. This did not happen with the other PMDG or any kind of aircraft, right? Only the 747v3.

It makes my cargo hauler feel like a real truck!

I must a admit I had a too quick look at the introduction manual, did not see it, then searched the forums and arrived here. My doors are now open. I plead guilty.

I don't think Jack's question was so bad. Anyhow, the replies to his question weren't much better. My guess is that at some point in a (distant) future, we will get PMDG's rendition of the 737 MAX, which will include its winglets too. But that's just my guess.

Hi John, 4 reddish Euro notes and almost a divorce. Thank you Hussein for your answer and tip on overclocking it. Will ask the builder if hè can look into this.

Hi, Just ordered a new system, maybe a bit late, but wanted to check here if this is a good choice. Aiming to switch to P3D and don't want to worry about add-ons. Also, if you have any recommendations about screen(s), would be appreciated. Processor: 6ª Generation Intel® Core™ i7-6700K Quad-Core, 4.0 GHz with Turbo up to 4.2 GHz, 8 MB Cache Cooler CPU: WC Corsair Hydro Series H75 Motherboard: Asus Z170 PRO GAMING Memory RAM: Gskill Ripjaws V DDR4-2400MHz 2x8GB Hard disk: Samsung 2.5" 850 Evo 250GB Power source: XFX XXX Edition Bronze Graphic Card: Intel® HD Graphics 530 (Integrated in the CPU) + MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition 8GB GDDR5X Thanks a lot, Ralf

If our community had its own city, a monument would be built for Tom at its main square, and its airport would be named after him. My sincere condolences.

Will it come only with RW liveries or will they also do some fictional ones?

I don't know the answer but there is at least a cup of coffee or two included in this hour. Add some water or a soda drink and possibly some short chatting on non-flight related issues with the first officer and / or a cabin crew member. A short visit to the toilet also might happen at times.

According to RW pics of the same airframe it appears to be correct. This is a KLM Asia livery and the crown on top of KLM used on normal KLM liveries was taped over. I don't know if it's cleaner, but the blue of that tape has a lighter colour than the rest of the airframe. Best regards, Ralf

Did you exclude ASN from your anti-virus software?

Correct and PMDG prices are in line with the market of high-end add-ons. Their products are the best you can get. Some years ago we didn't expect that one day we would have this degree of realism available to us. All the work that went in there needs to be paid and what we paid was rewarded by SP1 which was a great bonus we got for free. I wouldn't have the time to become a Beta tester, and certainly not the patience.. Ok, you are stating that PMDG are money-grabbers, but are you also saying that their products are over-estimated by reviewers? . I understand your frustration here as I was disappointed too when I first heard that that neither the 200ER nor the 300ER would be released first. It never stopped me from having fun flying the LR, doing routes and airlines that otherwise I wouldn't have done. The LR is in use with major airlines like Air Canada, Delta, Emirates,..., and is becoming the cargo hauler of choice for many other airliners. I understand you on this point, but still refuse to agree on your insinuation that this was a money-grabbing policy. Without knowing of course I would say their policy was a policy of "how can we do the biggest variety of accurate models in the shortest amount of time possible with the ressources we have, keeping it affordable to the average simmer". They came up with the equal engine models for the LR and 300ER, adding that the LR can be seen as two models in one as there is the pax version and freighter version. And at the end this policy made all these varieties more or less affordable to us. But at the end I don't know their policies and neither do you. I am willing to pay their prices and I haven't regretted any cent spend on their products so far. That's what counts for me.

Yes, there is one by Corina Meyer on Avsim http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=185270

I agree with Kyle that it is very obvious that PMDG has not a 'money grabbing' policy or business model. No need of PMDG confirming it. With SP1 we almost got a complete redesign of systems of the 77L. Many other add-on providers would have charged for a SP that services much more than just some bugs, but gives us additional functionality and a correction of what PMDG admitted they modelled wrong (FBW). Other developpers wouldn't have even admitted this and just stayed quite about it. We weren't even forced to buy the -300 to get access to the full SP. The only commercial tactic I see is their professionalism that made me and others buy it. In everything that PMDG has done since I discovered them, I just can see that it is a company that loves our hobby and loves to serve it. However it remains a commercial company and needs to make money. But 'money grabbing' just sounds very wrong when related to PMDG and I'm sure that only assuming it in public on this forum must be hurting and painful to at least some members of their team.

Hi, I just finished my first flight on the 300ER. Great airplane, good performance and weather radar working fine. No problems what so ever during a 12h flight until 5 min from touchdown. FSX crashed (not an OOM) and after FSX closed, I saw an error message from ASN, saying it was not able write weather data and asked me to make sure I was a using a registered copy (which I am) and that the program is excluded from all virus detection settings / firewall. So probably the crash was caused by ASN and not the 300ER, but as this is the first time ASN causes a crash on my system, I thought this maybe has something to do with the new functionalities of SP1 using / communicating with ASN. Just wanting to let you know this happened in case other users experience the same. I see this as a single event so far and am not too worried. If it happens again next flight, I will post and investigate more. Ralf

and time

Thank you for calling me a fine painter I feel honored without deserving it. I might be able to become a fine painter, if the will and patience would be there. And the will sometimes is. True that my tools are bad and what disturbed me about Photoshop full versions are the monthly payments. I didn't know about this freeware version, so thanks for telling me. But my patience isn't back for the moment and I found somebody helping me a lot with creating the fleet I want. Someday the urge might come back. I discovered that it is fun to paint, but for the moment I rather fly than trying to do something others are much better at. Thank you again,

For the non-french speakers, Patrick identified his problem. He didn't run the PMDG installer as administrator and didn't run FSX as administrator either. Doing this solved his problem posted at the beginning of this thread (in English). Thought I'd translate the outcome as it might be useful to others too. Patrick, je me suis permis de traduire la solution de ton problème comme elle pourrait être utile aussi pour les utilisateurs ne parlant pas le Français. Enfin, content que tout c'est arrangé pour toi et bon vols!

Hi Steve, For the Atlas Air logo, I just send you two images by email in higher resolution with their logo. Don't know if they are any help getting the 'R' right...

Beautiful shots. Thank you so much.

Hi, Somebody contacted me offering to help build a fleet. That really made my day. Many thanks to him. Yes, I was quite happy with the painting job myself. Didn't expect myself to ge this far. I think my main problem is that I use Photoshop Elements and that this program doesn't show Alpha Layers. I use the little freeware editor DXTBmp (forgot the authors name, but the initials are MW) as a work around, but the following things I was never able to correct, even after trying hard: - align the Alpha Layer of the windows correctly, so I always have some intransparent windows in front ant back of the fuselage and sometimes even transparent spots where there are no windows. For the 600 worse than for the 900 - I keep having this white line seperating fuse part 2 and 3 on the 800. Can't make it go away, even after reading a lot about it on the forum. - tail night texture: never understood how this work as there is no specific .psd for this. However, when turning on the logo light, I have the brightes tail is the sky, and it is all bright, not only the spot where the logo light is supposed to shine on - i managed night textures with the landing lights shining on the fuselage, but the inside half of the engines are as bright as the tail. So I completely gave up painting. Just can't do it and don't have the patience. But at least I can say that I tried. And because of this I can respect the beautifull repaints some of you are bringing out day by day even more then before.

Looks impressive too. Thanx for the info.

Certainly interested in the name. Especially if they are easy to use and not affecting performance more than REX textures would. You know this is the second time today you stopped me from pulling out my credit card? I am in this "let's upgrade my sim" mood today :-)

All right. Now I get it. So Rex is a must have. I'll get it right away. I used to have it some years ago but abandoned it with ASE2012. But now i'm on ASN.
