Hi Jim, It is now like this. What I did experience was FSX crash after loading a flight saved with programmed CDU. Now with the (pmdg)Sp1c installed, I can save the PMDG airplane whenever I like. This is then a new flight of course, not with opening an old one. That indeed does not work. It now starts up where I left, complete with legs etc. so a lot of time is saved. Still I will have a look at what you suggested reg. a proper flightplanner. I do have FSCommander since about a month, but for now more to follow the airplane and checking airways etc. Still a lot to learn! Best regards, Peter

Hi Jim, TY for your reply. I did not install both, but removed Accellaration and installed SP2 to see if this would help. However, I have now installed the SP1c update from PMDG for a higher Version. I started to program a flight and half way I had to stop. Saved it as is and then re-opened FSX. Then tried to load the flight and to my surprise it came a I left it. Relief, cause you can continue rather then start all over again. Perhaps this was the clue!? Regards, Peter

Hi! Starting FSX with PMDG737 is no issue. However only as long as the CDU is NOT progammed with another flight other then the standard NGX flights. When preparing and flying a route, I can save this flight, but at FSX start-up and selecting this plane, FSX crashes. Also when I load the same (saved) plane from within FSX, after start-up with a standard airplane, it will crash. So I can open FSX, as long as I do not select PMDG with a CDU containing a flightplan I made and loaded/saved in this CDU. I use FSX Gold, with Accelerator or with SP1&2, no changes. Regards, peter
