TACAN Radio?
So, this new P-8 livery is excited and got me wanting to fly around some military bases. On a trip up to KNUW, I decided to try the TAC32 approach when I ran into a snag. Is there a TACAN radio in the NGX? If not, could it possibly be added or is it just one of those things that not enough people care about so it wont be modeled?

[27FEB15] Latest News/Release Planning Notes, etc
I actually work almost 43 hours over Sat, Sun, Mon. I wouldn't mind waiting for a Tuesday release...

LNAV disconnects - i give up
CWS mode will not take the NGX off it's current course. It is designed to have the plane fly similar to an Airbus where it will hold a certain pitch/bank until you make a physical input. You probably have something spiking a right input. Check FSUIPC and FSX and make sure nothing is connected to ailerons/rudders except for your yoke.

777-300ER Air Force One
I work on its home base. I get to see this plane, its twins and the USAF C40Bs almost every day I work. I also get to see the Vc-25s as well. The thing I like about the C-32s is they are so overpowered, especially in the VIP configuration where they are basically empty.They only fly like 50 people or so.

777-300ER Air Force One
All this debate with the 777 potentially being Air Force One, and im just sitting here thinking it could replace the C32A's which usually fly the Vice President as Air Force Two. This has a slightly different paint scheme, but is a more accurate plane for a twin engine single deck aircraft.

Rex 4 broke PMDG lights?

I have full landing lights on and cannot see their effect on the runways. Sometimes the light is also really far ahead of my plane. I did not have this issue until the day I installed Rex 4. Its the same for basically every plane I own.

Dear PMDG, please seriously consider this.
Again, that's what the hope is for. For the tiny sliver of a chance that it does happen. Because I would be the happiest person ever and buy it day one. I'm also realistic though, and know it probably won't. But, it's better to try and let my wishes be known than sit silent and have them never fulfilled.
-
Dear PMDG, please seriously consider this.
Good answers on both. Still, i'm just hoping that someone, preferably the masters at PMDG, make a big heavy cargo aircraft. If the DOD is still being stingy, I could always go for an An-225/124.
-
Dear PMDG, please seriously consider this.
Yeah, i'm Air Force Security Forces (MP). We don't like pictures of our alert aircraft. However, these are cargo aircraft. Please forgive my ignorance on the next question, but what exactly do they need from Boeing performance figure wise that is not available anywhere else on the internet? There's really nothing classified on the C17 or the C5 any more except maybe the countermeasure system, and that can be completely simulated or ignored as there is no threat in FSX. It would be cool if they programmed in the occasional lock or laser point while on final, but for the most part a C-17 is just an extremely capable, agile, and powerful cargo jet.

Dear PMDG, please seriously consider this.
That was almost 5 years ago. Many many things change in 5 years. Also, it will NEVER happen if there is not any new interest shown.

A new aircraft idea after the 777!
I want military aircraft, but only the cargo. There are more than enough fighters out there in the market already. But, there is only one decent C-5 (Area-51) but it has almost nothing extra over a stock FSX jet. Two C-17s (Area-51 and Virtavia) The Virtavia is my model of choice, but it too is lacking heavily in the systems and modeling aspect. Full flaps in a C-17 is a completely different flight model where throttle controls altitude and pitch controls speed, while the Virtavia bird just flies like any other heavy. Plus IRL C-17 can enable reverse thrusters mid flight (at idle) to quickly slow down the plane, or help in steep descents into airfields and this is not implemented in either of them. Also, I really want to see a high quality exterior model with the slime lights. The look unreal in person, and neither payware version does them justice. I also wouldn't mind a PMDG level An-225 as there are no good 225s out there. The ones that are have the basic fsx system modelling. I love heavies, more than any other type of aircraft and it saddens me that the only good heavy is the PMDG 747. Im waiting for V2 and the 748, but it still won't have the same feeling as an agile C-17, screaming C-5, or super giant lumbering An-225. I have been in and around all three of those AC and would love a great sim version.

Dear PMDG, please seriously consider this.
I would honestly give my left two nuts for a good C-17 or C-5M. I want a good C-17 cause the two that are out now, Virtavia and Area-51, while they are decent, they are not modelled for flight accurately. IRL, the C-17 can enable reverse thrusters mid flight (at idle) to slow the giant aircraft down on a steep descent. Neither one of the C-17s out now model that at all. I would like a PMDG C-5 as the current C-5 (Area-51) is super lite. It is just barely modelled above FSX planes and I absolutely love the challenge of flying the super heavies like the 748, A380, An-225, C-5, C-17. Come to think of it, I would also like a PMDG An-225... But with english writing, as I cant speak Russian, lol.

777 Performance Manger
I can run the NGX very well at 30 FPS. This is not the case with me for the 777 though. If the plane is in level flight, I get 30fps easy. If I try to bank, turn, rudder, pitch or anything that involves a control surface, my framerate drops down to the low teens... or lower. Hand landings are basically out of the question now as 7FPS is not conducive to landing. If i switch to any other AC my framerate goes rate back to where it was.
