Paul, in reality it is dangerous to apply takeoff thrust manually unless you are absolutely focused on it. Figure out TOGA and use it at least for your...

[DDowns]

I'd expect so. I'm not sure of exactly when that file is updated, I suspect it is when the simulator platform is closed although one would hope it would...

Simulator/Aircraft?

In P3D Correct, you cannot use the same break-away thrust used to get moving during taxi. At 300T you might need up...

Hi David, not normal. The service based hours are maintained in a file with the same name as the aircraft registration (see PMDG\PMDG 747 QOTS II\Aircraft...

[DDowns]

Correct. That promotion ended over six months ago.

[DDowns]

Yes, definitely. Every product/developer has their own installation for the navdata.

Try this Rick: Check your <p3d>\PMDG folder...

I recall that discussed by RSR a long time ago... so yes. Probably. This is the kind of detail that he likes.

If you are light in a B777 then idle thrust can get you moving. Those fans are bigger than a 737 fuselage and push a lot of air at idle. If you are...

I've read this is because carbon brakes wear based on number of applications rather than the severity or duration of the application. With reverse thrust...

I have a three position switch on my Warthog throttle assigned to MCP SPD up/down. It's pretty easy to inadvertently bump into when I'm busy and then...

Not at all, just log into your account from the pmdg.com home page. No visit to the sales pages required....

[DDowns]

Why not create a direct to with INTC? This works without an airway and one simply uses the airway course if that is the desired goal....

[DDowns]

What is the N1 when throttles closed?

[DDowns]

I'm well versed on the Boeing FMS but I'm not sure what P/PXXX refers to. The context leads me to believe that you are referring to a conditional waypoint...

[DDowns]

You don't require object names to use FSUIPC to assign a controller button/switch to a key command. First, use the PMDG Options key commands menu to...

[DDowns]

Really, when you run out of ideas why not simply ask PMDG for help? The forum is a user to user forum... I'm just another user. Try creating an account...

[DDowns]

Angus, I gave you a link to follow if it was the vcruntime140 module. Follow that link please.

[DDowns]

Exactly which VC runtime is named in the error messsage. Even better, what is is listed in the application error event record for faulting module?...

[DDowns]

This is incorrect. True, there are many operators that do not arm VNAV on the ground but Boeing provides procedures for doing exactly that. I believe...

[DDowns]

It is quick and easy to verify that the scenery has the same frequency as the navdata (there are cases where they will be different). Simply open the...
