I was able to load the AIRAC files successfully. The fatal error occurs now right after, before the 3D model shows up in the menu.

Just an update. I verified this has nothing to do with the AIRAC files. Still no solution though.

I have no idea what my AIRAC files are, how to update them, nor have I even seen any mention of them, before installing the PMDG plane. Aren't the AIRAC files specific to the PMDG installation/download and already up to date?

Good day everyone, I am having a consistent fatal error with FSX, right after selecting PMDG MD-11 in the plane selection menu. The game is freezing as the plane attempts/begins to load the AIRAC database files. It never progresses farther than "0" in loading the AIRAC files. I have checked over my dll.xml file which seems to be fine. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise, on a Macbook Pro via Bootcamp. i7 CPU, 8 Gbs ram, NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M Windows Event Viewer shows 3 errors.

Furthermore, I do not have any problems flying with any other planes, default and addon freeware, pre-PMDG installation, or post-PMDG installation. Any thoughts? Cheers!
