Hi i've just bought the PC12 and can't get it to autoland for some reason. I like to have the option and I can with everything else. It doesn't seem to want to engage with the glide slope but it does with the localiser. I couldn't find anything in the manual about it. What does the arm light mean? Many thanks

Many thanks Jim, I found that too but I should've said I'm trying to connect it to my iPad and haven't managed yet.

Hello I own Skydemon and would like to connect it to FSX. I feel sure I did it years ago but I can't remember how. I bought FSUIPC hoping that would help but no joy. Clearly I need help. I'm considering OPUS software but I just want to be certain it's going to work before throwing more money away. I just need it for Skydemon not everything else it comes with. Many thanks!

Hi, this is new to me so I don't really know what to ask for specifically but I know what I'd like to end up with which is my pay ware Cirrus SR22 in custom colours with a British registration.

Hi, I'm enjoying this aircraft but there's a few things I'd change if I could: I'd like the landing lights to be a lot brighter and I'd love a custom paint job with reg to boot. Can anyone point me in the right direction for these things please?

Tried image shack, apparently I do not have permission to use it here. Moved on now though thanks

Hi, yes the Aerosoft new release. I would post a picture up here of half of the cockpit being missing at FL33 - good view, but it's a bit chilly! However, it might be quicker and easier to do a degree in astrophysics than it is to put an image up on this forum.

I'm finding the a318 too much for my computer, i.e; it hangs, large patches of scenery still not loaded, then it finally closes. I don't have any problems with the 777/737 a320 with fs2crew, GSX, vfr scenery or night with extreme airports. - I thought I'd overcome OOM's I only have the scenery in use checked, which is usually fine. I've used bejotes cfg. editor. On a more positive note... it's a lovely aircraft! Love the exterior lighting, good work.

any chance of this livery then?

tried again today, EGLL to KJFK at sunset. Requested pause at TOD so I could restart. After restart, it had lost the IRS. - Gutted! I should try with the NGX and report.

Everything else fine, plan remains in CDU etc. all except IRS needs realigning. Even both LNAV & VNAV buttons light up. But it doesn't remain on track.

us Brits also loved Britannia airways, before TUI/ Thomson got their hands on the livery

I'm flying EGLL to LGIR today, and had read a good idea to avoid OOM. By saving my flight after TOD and restarting FSX; thus resetting VAS. The problem is I lost my IRS so now I can't even leave the cockpit for a pee! The only add on in scenery checked is EGLL. my MBP & PC both suffer with long hauls. Any suggestions how to save the IRS aswell?

I'm am also suffering this problem. I have sent a ticket but, as always, they're in bed because they're on the other side of the world from me. bring on PMDG UK support!

anybody?

oh, not solved. seems this is an intermittent issue.

seem to have worked it out by setting the priority to real time

I installed the 777 this morning onto my MacBook retina, ran fine for a few hours. came back to it this afternoon and now FSX keeps crashing/ sometimes the game will load but the aircraft has no landing gear - will fly but has no display in the cockpit. Try to change aircraft and FSX crashes.

hi, thanks for your replies. I've managed to talk the missus into installing win 7 64 bit onto her MacBook pro with retina. I will give that a go. Re upgrades in the future, I thought the GPU's are not as important as the CPU specs for FSX. The CPU specs are what's concerning me with macs. am I wrong in thinking that? meanwhile I have got my rig going again. turned out I had air bubbles around the water pump, I had to remove it shake the whole system, then replace the radiator the correct way up!! My rig is running a 39.30k@4.3GHZ and a GTX260. how will an i7 imac compare do you all think?

uninstall PMDG?

Hi guys, I'm getting tired of my custom build PC. It's switching itself off after just a few mins of running. I only just fitted a new mobo two months ago. I feel the best way forward is to buy something new with a warranty. My question is will the latest IMac i7 27" with windows 7 64 bit replacing apple OS run FSX with all my payware/ add ons? To include: PMDG aircraft + other 3 rd parties ie wilco photographic scenery for the whole of the UK UK2000 extreme airports. I have found other people have had success but never mention they have extreme pay ware like me and have heard frame rates being an issue (but not sure if that was the early ones). This computer is used for only FSX.

Hi, I've got some small issues with a few of my third party aircraft. Can anyone advise some cures? I have an Aardvark with a constant vapour trail coming off the port wing. I have a 767 with a faulty horizontal stabaliser. It can't take off unless I set the trim to 4. It then has to remain there for straight and level flight. I have an airbus a320 which I cannot have the throttle levers respond to the joystick, I can only use the F keys. Also can change the settings on the MCP such as IAS/ ALT

Hi, turned out I had a load of corrupt files. Did a rebuild, all aircraft visible again. Thanks for all your input guys

davierosoft: i have uninstalled FSX from the disc then deleted everything left in the C drive menu's relating to it. have re-installed FSX, started it. then ran SP1, started it, then installed SP2. - still not been asked for the code. am now installing PMDG from disc and i cant install direct X. it says the cabinet file cannot be trusted. so, I remain with an inactive cockpit. Great news for me tho....I found the box with the PMDG product code!! is it possible to cure this problem by installing it on my F HDD drive?
