Hello,I am having some very minor problems with the NGX, and I thought I might mention them to see if there is any solutions or if anyone else has experienced them.One problem is with the parking brake. It is supposed to release when you push on the toe-brakes. Mine will do that once per flight. After that it will not release with the toe-brakes again until I load a new flight.The other is that today after I landed and parked, my engines stayed running after I shut off the engines with the cut-off levers. I could see that the cut-off levers were off in the VC, but the engine gauges on the engine display showed that they were still running and you could hear them.The parking brake problem has been consistent for a long time. The engines running after the cut-off levers are down, is a new problem and has only happened one time, so it may be a fluke, so I'm not too worried about it.Thank you,Bob

Anyone know why this happens and has a fix? after engine start the throttles show about 18%, N1 when I advance throttles to taxi and the aircraft starts to move bringing throttle back to idle, and applying parking brake has no immediate effect aircraft continues moving forward for approx, 50 metres, and then stops even through the throttle is fully retarded. When I turn onto the runway and apply throttles and TOGA no problem, N1% increase and V1, VR. V2. are reached with no problem if I have to abort anything above 60 knots, I will run out of runway at Heathrow before it stops. I have become a friend of the clearway at the end of 9L .even applying parking brake and Pressing F2, for reverse thrust, no effect. Then coming into land after disconnecting AT, even with full flap so I am no faster e.g. then 135knts during roll out and fully retarded throttles, pressing F2 the aircraft just does not slow down, keeps rolling down the runway. eventually stopping. more gremlins.. I,thought it was a calibration issues, so recalibrated using CH software no improvement. Have no looked at FSX settings. also have FSUPC, but do not know how to use this software. Can anyone help, it really spoils a fantastic simulation with one of the best flight sim models out there today. all post are my own thoughts, unless you agree and then they are ours. Kalibra.

Good day! I figured out that my throttles advance without arming either of the 2 flight directors. The manual correctly states that TO/GA is only available when both FD are engaged. What could be the cause that my TO/GA mode can be activated without any FD or only 1 FD active? It doesn't matter if I'm using the TO/GA buttons on the throttles or the hidden one on the MCP. I'm using Prepar3D V3.2, the latest PMDG 737NGX updates (via the PMDG Updater -> no self caused finger trouble) and only liveries downloaded via the PMDG livery manager (again no finger trouble). I'm running P3D on my iMac using Bootcamp and Windows 7 (also latest updates installed). Everything works wonderful btw. Maybe I just got something wrong here understanding the system. Even though I read a lot in the forum using the advanced search function. Therefore I'd be delighted getting answers from the pros! Have a nice weekend everybody!

Hello, I have been experiencing this from time to time. I push my throtles forward, but only 1 engine spools up. I can see the throtle level in the EICAS screen but the engine is stuck - iddle. I noticed that everytime i get this problem, i have the indication of Righ Engine Pneumatics OFF in the overhead pannel, but i can get to the root cause. I have unmaped the "E" Key thinking about the "Select Engine" comand, but it is not working. I use lastest FSUIPC registered, Saitek Pro controls, FS2CRE, FSPassenger(Though it was something related, but is not). Any clue... Thanks in advance for your suport...
