Sorry, I have to break the news now before the show starts in Las Vegas. It is a brand new shining flighsim platform based on a new 3D Google Map engine as scenery and terrain data. FPS is around 100+

Found this P3D loading utility at www.flightsim4fun.com Description: SmartStarter is for those who want an more flexible and user friendly loading of PMDG airplanes and are using a predefined scenario with custom monitor/windows settings. It lets you load any airplane livery to any start position with any panel state configuration and keep your predefined monitor/windows setting intact. A must have app in my B737 home cockpit. Now I can jump into any PMDG B737 at any airport and runway with default/ready panel state configuration or at any airport and gate in either Cold & Dark, Long or Short panel state configuration with all MIP instruments at the correct positions. Simpler can it not be.

In my search for a solution I found this SmartStarter. Google "SmartStarter p3d" and you find it.

I have several monitors on my PC and using PMDG airplanes mostly. I have undocked and set up all MIP displays on my second and third monitor to my preference. Then I have saved this setup via P3Dv4 scenario page. I can load this setup from the P3Dv4's scenario page and windows come up correctly. That is fine. But, how can I have this setup and start a flight with another livery and from another starting point(airport, gate) than the one that is saved as above? Do I really need to have one setup for each airplane livery and start locationto get it working? I would like to just load any livery with my default screens/windows setup from any location. Is it possible, and if, how?

I want to build a home cockpit based on PMDG B737NGX. My plan is to have a hardware OVH (both AFT and FWD), EFISs, MCP, MIP, CDUs and PEDESTAL + THROTTLE and YOKES ( at least on the Captain side). Is it possible at all? I have seen a program called OC4BA that works with Opencockpits hardware modules. Anyone tried that route? What about CPFLIGHT modules or and PMDG B737NGX? Any other way to go?
