Hi, What I can say is that the new portal and new rules are everything but friendly for the customer confronted with the impossibility to reacivate his planes after e. g.an hardware or a virus crash. The first problem is to find the right way to place his ticket. No entry, no suggestion on the site dispite the relative high prices of the products you can't imagine to pay for again. Note that the number of my activations are only related to changes in my machine and not actually so numerous but for the Jeatstream I bought for many years. This is my second ticket as the first one is still whitout answer. I would like to reactivate my Boeings 600-700 and 800-900 and the Jetstream I still use regularly. Not usane to dream of this? Regards Daniel

Hello, I would like to know whether there are any 'high quality' developers working on making a full fledged 737 MAX or 787 Dream liner. I heard a Rumor that PMDG maybe making the 737 MAX, Is this true? Also, can you recommend any 737/787 addons? (Payware or Freeware, if any) Is it possible that these addons can be of the same quality as PMDG or higher? (If possible ) Thanks Alot, Commandhat17 / AJ

Hi all Santos Dumont (SBRJ/SDU) is one of the most challenging destinations; hence it's also one of my favorites. Most of the time I fly from Sao Paulo (SBSP), as that route makes an interesting return flight as well. I use the 737-800SFP with GOL painting. I'm getting quite good at landing at SBRJ. Occasional go-arounds due to late cockpit preparations still happen, but that airport requires you to be pretty precise. I was wondering what limitations there are for takeoff and landing at SBRJ, and searched this and other forums for answers. This is what I ended up with: SBRJ T/O Only RWY 20L/02R Tail Wind max 5kt Max OAT = 40c Flaps 15 / 25 (15 = best performance) Max TOW: 68K (Wet =64K) Opt for Bleed off (Only very little gain) 27K TO-B (Always) No rolling. Release brakes at N1=70% Then TOGA Thrust reduction/Acceleration = 820’ / 820’ Speed mode = N1 VNAV engaged @ Transition ALT = 5000’ Assumed Temp. Max. 44c SBRJ Landing Tail Wind max 5kt Only 20L/02R Flaps 40 Autobrake MAX Max LW 58.2 It’s the very last bullet (max landing weight 58,2 tonnes) that I never seem to get even close to. I’m mostly well above 60 tonnes when I land! This is the post I got the number from: http://forum.avsim.n...-field-package/ So, these are my calculations: Dry weight = 41,413kg Reserve fuel and final taxi fuel = 3,000kg (incl unused holding, alternative and contingency) 166 PAX + 10kg carry-on = (80kg+10kg)*166 = 14940kg Luggage = 166pax * 15kg (average checked in luggage) = 2490kg No extra cargo Total landing weight is then 61,843kg! I’m often told, that I need to lose weight :-), but here we are talking about 3.6 tonnes ! I haven’t overrun the runway yet, so it might be the 58.2 tonnes max landing weight, that’s not right. But it really sounded like the poster knew what he was talking about. My guess is that my calculations are wrong. But I can’t really see where? Any help, knowledge and guidance is appreciated. Thanks in advance. //Lasse

Hi all! Yesterday, I was coming into Montreal from Toronto City Centre and as I was going through the before landing checklist, the PNF (FS2crew) failed to bring the fuel levers to MAX. I then tried to bring the fuel levers to MAX, without avail. They wouldn't move. Is this a known bug? is there a reason why he didn't moved the fuel levers to MAX? Thanks!
