Bill... I've been trying to explain something to you that apparently is totally foreign and unknown. The 744 doesn't have IAN, the 748 does.

The diamond is just above the VNAV descent deviation indicator is a G/P indicator because you are in IAN mode. Note FAC is indicated on the FMA. This...

[DDowns]

You mixed the use of flight director with auto pilot... and you under estimate the experience Bode actually has, which is far more than most rated that...

[DDowns]

The diamonds (for both LOC and GS) turn green once captured, when the diamond first appears then you are receiving the signals and you can arm the approach...

[DDowns]

That works fine unless the aircraft is equipped with IAN. The GS deviation indicator is the diamond on right vertical axis, yes.
An IAN equipped...

Do not arm APPR until after you see the GS deviation indicator. Before it appears only arm the LOC/VOR.

You didn't mention any altitudes...

Verify that your throttles are open about an inch. I line up the levers with the lower rivet. Makes a difference. You didn't mention priming.

Full names required on all posts here.

All activation errors should be discussed with PMDG Product Support (this is a user to user forum)...

There is no 'documentation' Bill, it's learn by the seat of the pants. Select the tug, enter manual pushback, change view to be behind the tug steering...

The Boeing FCTM does recommend the use of A/T during landing regardless of if coupled to A/P; however, the reverse thrust is never automated. There are...

What source is the rte file from? I've no problems using rte files from PFPX or Simbrief but sometimes a conversion from pln to rte doesn't work....

[DDowns]

In addition to what Kevin said, my first suspect would be the as_connect module. Which P3D version? Which QOTSII version? Force a reinstall of the AS...

[DDowns]

I doubt they will visit this item on the to-do list until after both 777 and DC-6 have installed on P3Dv5, and then it will depend on how many alligators...

[DDowns]

Agree with Edward.... the EULA allows us to use the software on two different machines as long as only one at a time is used by you. That message says...

[DDowns]

Eric, the default key commands are easy to find. Just open the key assignment UI from the P3D Options menu and select the VIEW category.

Nice, the MD-11 had Betty and so the B727 should have a Latino Becky! Love it.

[DDowns]

The simconnect that is installed with P3D is all that is required. None of the legacy versions are required.

Generally one can ignore the...

This is landing... the topic is take off rotation. Not landing flare.
This has been known to be an issue with the QOTSII from it's first entry...

[DDowns]

That is the whole point, if you over rotate you are doing it wrong. Fly it correctly and you will not have problems.

Double check your mobo selection. The i9-10900K requires a 1200 socket and the Z490 chipsets are aligned with 10th gen....
