Shaun, how would I get the update to correct the runway numbers, 22 on runway 4 and no runway markings on 22 -

Shaun, the airport is awesome. I live in Amarillo and love your work. One question I have is my control+j will not move the jetway while parked at gate 10. It was working before Kama download. Again good job and thanks. lewblok -
pmdg 737-800 starts sitting at gate at full throttle
lewblok posted a topic in PMDG 737NGX | 737NGXu
When I log onto FSX pick the boeing aircraft and the airport and the gate and click to flynow, the aircraft starts with auto throttle on and engines going full blast with throttle levers at idle, and autopilot is on and cannot set up a flight on FMC. Do I need to reload the pmdg program or can I change so aircraft starts at gate running at idle or cold and dark? Thanks for any replies Lewis Block -
I am having lots of trouble using the trim wheel to adjust a climb, descent and level flight. Using the AP and set altitude it flies straight and level. But when I try to fly without altitude hold, the trim wheel just rolls up and down causing constant adjustment of the pitch control with the yoke. I pull the yoke full either way and the wheel is just moving constantly. Love this aircraft, but this problem is creating more work flying than I want to do. The trim buttons on my yoke will move the wheel, but then the trim wheel starts its up and down adjustments. Makes it tough to set up a climb or descent. On an ILS approach with AP on, it will follow the descent to the runway, but turn off AP and then it goes bonkers. Help please. Thanks for any responses. Got to thinking this topic should have been a new topic but don't know how to move to a new topic now. Sorry Lewis Block

I have FSX and the pmdg 737-800 and was wondering what I need to do to use the weather radar on this aircraft. Thanks Lewis Block

In doing a short turnaround and sitting at the gate while GSX ground services are preparing the aircraft for the next flight, there is an audible alarm that has no indicator light and cannot figure out what it is for. Engines are shut down, APU is running and park brake is on, but still this sound will not shut off. Hope someone can help me fix this obnoxious problem. I know I have probably done something wrong, but cannot figure it out. Thanks Lewis Block

I did fly the tutorials, but don't remember that particular instance. Appreciate finding out what it is. Thanks everyone for the help. Lewis Block

All of the responses and no one has said what the magenta 7000/9000 is indicative of on the FMC? Just thought someone would know. Thanks for the responses. Lewis Block

Thanks everyone for the responses, I will do some work on re-adjusting. Lewis Block

I have been looking at all of the tweaks and fixes everybody recommends to repair and fix this problem. For someone who is not computer savvy, it is all greek to me. I can go into cfg and do some tweaks, but there are so many. Last night flying from kdfw to kord and doing an instrument approach and boom ran out of memory after a long flight. Is there some way a layman like me can tweak my computer so the VAS is not a problem. I have been reading posts from 7 years ago with this same sort of problem. I find it hard to believe that a fix has not been ""invented yet"" to get rid of the downloaded scenery etc. that was loaded at the start of the flight. I have built a new computer just for FSX and thought I had a dream machine, but alas it is not working out that way. My system is as follows: ie7 4790 K with HYPER 212 cooler gigabyte 297X Gaming G1 MOB EVGA 780 video card with fans 3 GB GDD5R GE FORCE 780 Ti 16 gig ram memory 1TB SSD Samsung 750 W power source Windows 7 64 bit Mega Scenery Earth at kdfw to Oklahoma border about 50 miles FSRecorder FS2CREW PMDG 737-800 FSX Gold Running 3 monitors with different resolutions My FSX runs great except for this happening. If I set frame rate to 30-40 instead of unlimited will that help with the OOM problem? "" Thanks"" for any responses and please in language me and anyone else can understand. Lewis Block

Yes I mean magenta not red. So is the aircraft FMC going to automatically go to these altitudes on a final approach fix of magenta 7000/9000 or do I have to do the altitude intervention?? Thanks Lewis Block
-
I am programming my FMC for a KAMA-KDEN flight and when setting up the approach to 35R, on one of the approach points, I get a 7000/9000 in red and I for the life of me cannot remember what that is indicative of. I tried looking through the manuals, but so many pages and hard to find the info I am looking for. Maybe some smart simmer can help me out???Thanks Lewis Block

I get this error message when I try to run a video that I have recorded. I am running FSX Gold and on a new computer. CTD this last time. Videos are not that important to me so if it continues, I won't do videos if I can't get a fix for it? So please help? I7 4790, egva 780, gigabyte mob, 1 tb ssd, 16 gb ram. Lewis Block
