PMDG Livery + Config issues
Hello, Previously on FSX I never had any issues with the aircraft however since using the steam edition I have encountered an issue where unless I manually put the config in through the FMC, eg selecting the heads up display off. None of the repaints which I am importing through the operations center are bringing the config with them, simply the repaint. The aircraft all have configs in the repaint but the operations center is just not using them. Is there a fix for this? Thanks Jacob

737 Turn around
After speaking to a Ryanair FO I can confirm that the Electric Hydraulic pumps are left on during the turn around and will be switched on when the pilots enter the cockpit on the first flight of the day. They should be on so you can check for leaks on the walk around. The A pumps are turned off though during the push as they provide the hydraulics to the nose gear. Jacob

NGX Reboot is under development!
Sounds great! Not sure if this has been mentioned but didn't find anything by searching, are Ryanair one of the airlines which SOPs will be represented in this new product? Thanks

NGX Reboot is under development!
As a user of the original NGX FS2CREW I can not wait for this! Will there be an option to have the Electrical Hydraulic Pumps left on turning the turn around? Thanks Jacob

Sun doesn't set
I used this http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fsxmisc&DLID=179660 to overwrite the REX textures and it solved the issue. Jacob

Sun doesn't set
Problem solved. I personally thought it was FS Real Time but it was the textures. Thanks for your help! Jacob

737 Turn around
Thanks Spin 737, I went into FSX and just turned on the electric hydraulic pumps along side a power source and there it was... the signature whine. It's very quiet on the PMDG so I had never really noticed it, as the only time I would have it on would be during push when GSX/AES is making a lot of noise. I've heard this is left on during windy conditions as the control surfaces will move, meaning the yokes will move about, However Ryanair seem to have them on all the time. I know that they have short turn around's but they seem to switch on straight away anyway. Does anybody know why this is? Thanks Jacob

737 Turn around
Sorry, I am referring to real world. This is during a time when the APU is not on and the GPU is in use. Examples - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzpdj7U32mA Nearly all videos of Ryanair boardings have that whining sound Thanks Jacob

Sun doesn't set
Hi, Thanks for getting back! This is taking place in Europe. I've launched on stand at EGCC and increased the time speed to observe whether it still occurred and I had the same problem. Jacob

Sun doesn't set
Hi, I am having a problem with FSX where my sun doesn't fully set. If I set the time to night the sun will have set. However if I fly during the day for a duration which leads me into the night, the sun will be low in the sky but It will never fully set. I have flown past mid night and it still doesn't set. Has anybody else had this problem or know what is causing it? Thanks in advance Jacob

737 Turn around
Hello, I've noticed that despite using the GPU, Ryanair 737-800's always give out a whine on the turn around which sounds like the fuel pumps. Can anyone confirm the the airline leaves on the fuel pumps during the turn around and if so, is it just the FWD 1 pump? Thanks in advance, Jacob

09JUN14 - PMDG 777 SP1 and 300ER updates
Thanks for all your hard work! Hopefully after SP1 you will have a better bug fixing release plan rather than the wait for the SP however this sounds promising

FSX Black screen
I am having a problem where after a fresh install of windows 7 and fsx with service pack 1 where as soon I have installed acceleration when I go into windowed mode and maximise it the screen remains black and I cant see anything in fsx. When I press esc I see the menu but as soon as I click continue I can see nothing again. I have tried reinstalling twice but still no luck fixing this issue, can anybody help as it works fine without acceleration and I have added ui...dll ? Thanks

Fuel Request
Hello, I think FS2CREW for the NGX is brilliant however I am wondering if it is possible to add a feature where you can tell the FO how much fuel he should tell the ground crew to load. So for example on turn around on initialization of the second leg the FO will ask how much fuel to load and the amount will gradually rise on the fmc until the target amount was met. Thanks Jacob

Airbus X Extended A330 Merge?
Hello! I was wondering if anybody is able to merge the A330 with the aerosoft airbus X extended edition without any problems? Ive tried but failed as the flight deck was in the wrong location so I was at the side of the wings and there were problems with systems Thanks! Jacob

Flare and Idle thrust
I dont believe the PMDG flare is very realistic and a Ryanair pilot has confirmed this, a temp fix he suggested was changing the life scalar on flaps.0 to 0.8 (aircraft.cfg) My landings are much more realistic now

Crash to desktop
Firstly always load with the PMDG first, I believe PMDG has to run separate processes as flight sim is not compatable to do a lot of stuff PMDG wanted to do. As for the start flight crashes ensure there is nothing clashing with the pmdg that could cause a problem, I mention this a lot on the forum but I find deleting my FSX.CFG file fixes alot of things - Hope this works, if not submit a support ticket on the PMDG site, you usually get a response very quickly to

Activating PMDG 737NGX
Yes you can activate as many times as you want, I believe the activation exceeded is just for pmdg to ensure you are not distributing which I think is fair enough. Contact them through the support tickets and they will happily reset it for you as long as it the same ip or you have a reason for it to change such as moved house or changed broadband.

FSX crashes when exit.
This is a problem I have had with some aerosoft aircrafts, I would recommend deleting your fsx.cfg file (mine is in C:\Users\Jacob\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX) then rerun flight sim x and start at any airport and any aircraft, close flight sim after it has loaded then run this tool http://www.venetubo.com/fsx.html <-- should help your frame rates too!
