WT497

I have it somewhere, I'll send you a PM.

I do too, if you still need it. Got it from him a while ago.

I haven’t flown the 747 or 777 yet, so I can’t tell you if it’s exactly the same. When you enter a STAR, the MD-11 will automatically tune to the appropriate ILS frequency. If you happen to be going somewhere without a STAR, I believe you do have to dial it in manually on the NAV-RAD page.

There's a button for the autobrakes in front of the throttle levers. You can choose between RTO, low, medium and high braking modes. If you're using the 3D cockpit, the button may be hidden behind the speedbrake/spoiler lever, so I tend to switch to the 2D cockpit and open the throttle quadrant window for it. Kind regards, Wesley.

Thanks for the heads up, voted yes. From what I've seen so far it's not very likely they'll actually make one, but we can always try. I wonder how many they need to sell to break even, considering over two hundred people already voted that they're interested - although whether or not they'd actually buy it is a different matter.

It doesn't matter anymore. I just checked again, and it's "temporarily sold out." I guess the decision has been made for me. If I had known this I would have bought it two years ago, when I only had my then 8-year-old Vista laptop. :( You flew the real thing? That's really cool! Which airline did you fly for?

The text below the picture appears to mention it being "as good as new" and "without scratches," which to me sounds like it's at the very least been opened, if not used. I am aware there is no tech support, that's why I made an account to ask around here. And why I'd like to make sure I'm not about to waste €60+ on a worthless disk.

Wait hang on, does this mean the German eBay copy also won't work? If that's the case, they shouldn't be charging €60 for it.

That's a real shame. This would have been a great way to get my hands on it. Let's hope than one German website didn't leave it on their page after running out, if they did there doesn't appear to be any (legal) way at all to find it. :(

For the boxed version as well? That's odd. I've never had any problems with other games I bought second hand. Is this a PMDG-specific policy?

Being Dutch, and having translated it without using Google Translate's interesting behaviour: - Bol.com shows it as "currently unavailable," meaning that they've run out. - AviationMegastore.com shows it as "no longer available with us." - The German eBay entry does appear to be available, I'll look into it. Thanks!

Looks like the Amazon copy was sold already, actually. Doesn't show any available on my screen at least. By the way, can you edit posts on this forum? There's no button where I expected it to be.

Ah yes, I probably should've mentioned that I only run FSX. $300 is too much indeed. I could spend a day in the MD-11 simulator in Germany for €350 (I live in the Netherlands). If I'm going to be spending upwards of €50 I'd prefer it to be on my favourite aircraft. I guess I'm stuck with my simple freeware MD-11 then. :( Thanks anyway for the replies.

Hello AVSIM, I've always been a fan of the McDonnell Douglas MD-11, but could never afford a PC that could run it. As I now own a better PC, I decided to try and buy the PMDG MD-11, only to find out that it's not being sold anymore. Could anyone help me find a copy? All websites I've checked show it as "temporarily unavailable" (AKA gone forever), but maybe some obscure website I don't know about still has a copy or two. Perhaps someone that currently owns one but doesn't use it any more might even be willing to sell their copy to me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Wesley. P.S. If this is not the right place for this type of question, please tell me. I'm new to this forum.
