not sure if anyone has seen this but it looks like they can use it for flightsim.

Recently I have been toying with the idea of building my own cockpit for the Pmdg 737. But then thinking about the oculus, that might be a better and cheaper option for me. Just wondering if ya guys have tried it out yet? I know the consumer version ain't out yet, but I can wait. Thanks guys

Or I can just wait for the oculus rift!

So I can go to this Leo bodnar site and buy a small board. And it will allow me to connect switches to the board that I can assign to the Pmdg cockpit? How many buttons or switches can I connect to one board? Thanks guys

Yeah I know. For the Pmdg it seems like the extra money would be worth not dealing with the hassle of building all this stuff and countless hours trying to make these work. I am thinking of buying a the cdu first. Then maybe 6 months later a mcp and so on

Okay cool. That's a good idea. It would be nice to learn how to set up all the different switches. And then have enough money left over the different displays in the cockpit

i have been looking around and seeing sites out there like flightdeck solutions and thier jet max 737 kit. That would be so darn cool. Just so expensive. And people with Thier wrap around screens. That would be so awesome. Has anyone here done anything like that for under 10,000 dollars? It would be fun just to have a working cdu. Just so much money.

Do you have any videos of your wrap around screen in action? This is quite amazing by the way!!

Okay here ya go. This is what I am seeing at night. As ya can see all of the surrounding lights are working besides the landing and taxi lights. Thanks

i got all surrounding lights. The terminal is all lit up. I got papi lights but that's it. There are just a few dim taxi lights but that's it. Very tough to land and taxi at night. I don't have a screenshot just yet. Just wondering if there is a quick fix I can do? Or just reinstall the airport. I have my ftx central set to global. And orbx liberies is above kpsp in the scenery libary. Thanks Greg.

Yeah when kpsp first came out I would fly the rnav all the time. Oh well I am fine just lining up with the runways

in the Pmdg 737 when I fly into orbx kpsp I choose the sbonno star and only vorb 31L is available. Looking at the charts there should be rnav approaches. I am up to date with my navigraph too. Thanks

That worked. Thank you!

I think my fscuip isn't working since I installed gsx. I looked at my modules folder in the fsx folder and the last log file was from a month ago. Which was about the time I installed gsx. I also can't see fscuip from my add ons menu. Can I just delete it and reinstall it? Thanks.

The weird thing is fsChatter is not recognizing my fscuip. Is that because it's the free version? Thanks guys

I downloaded and installed the trial version of fsChatter. I just can't seem to get it to work. With the Pmdg 737 which com do I use? I have tried the left and right side but nothing. I also have the latest version of fscuip the free version installed. Thanks.

I have had the Pmdg 737 for about a year now. Never had any problem saving and reloading a flight in mid air. I always used the short panel state. Lately I switched to a long panel state at startup. And now when I go to load my flight in mid air, the panel state is at the long startup state? I then have to go into my fmc menu and load the saved panel state. But by then I am already plummeting down to the ground waiting for the 20 seconds to load. Is there anything I can do without reinstalling or repairing the Pmdg? Thanks guys

Are we ever gonna see a new flight simulator in the next 10 years? I really have my doubts

Okay thanks. I was just wondering if something was wrong cuz the Pmdg 737 was parked in the md80 spot.

just noticed this problem. I am gate 10 with the Pmdg 737 and the jetway won't operate. The Pmdg is also parked in the md-80 parking spot. The 737 space is about 5 feet behind the front landing gear. Usually 737s are always parked at the 737 mark at my other airports. Just wondering if there is a quick fix. Maybe a quick reinstall. Thanks

i have had the Pmdg 737 for the last year now with no problems. I usually always have the short panel state as the startup panel. Latly I have been enjoying the cold and dark. So I would always choose the cold and dark panel at the gate. So recently I changed the panel start up state from my ussual short to cold and dark. I then closed fsx and reopened fsx and started the Pmdg at the gate. The ngx is cold and dark but the problem is I don't get the 15 second panel loading time? And I can't click anything in the cockpit? I really don't know what's going on here? If ya guys have any idea why this cold and dark panel ain't loading at start up. Thanks guys

Yeah I had it paused for about an hour and non of my cockpit sounds in the ngx would work. So I had to load a saved session. Oh well Thanks guys

Hopefully KSFO.

I already saved it. Just would like to jump right back into it.

i have to pause fsx for a few hours has anyone ever had any problems unpausing from that long? I have a Pmdg 737. Asn. Gsx. Thanks
