In this situation, the thrust should drop away almost immediately. Just two questions: what do T/C and T/D mean in the plan map? In PMDGs forum, Robert S. Randazzo, the head of PMDG, confers the highest accolades on his sound designer, and I would like to echo this praise. After this review, we will write a comparison between PMDG and iFly. Do this by clicking the username pull-down at the top right, then selecting "User Settings." For example, at low speeds it has the same difficulties in holding altitude precisely when rolling into or out of a turn as some of its big colleagues. All references in the article lead to the original articles in German. Well, in direct comparison with other 737 NG implementations I have to say that overall, the VC in those implementations is noticeably lower, making the view through the forward window less high and wider. WebHow to align irs and fix cabin altitude warning (Zibo b738) - YouTube 0:00 / 3:06 How to align irs and fix cabin altitude warning (Zibo b738) FSimSpotter 5 subscribers 2.7K I hope no one is going to claim that they use the VC to carry out the complete initialization of the FMC, for instance. Honeywell or Collins MCP? Provided, that is, that they have suitably powerful hardware. Incandescent and LED lighting packages, as well as fully dimming flight deck lights and annunciators. Your cabin altitude is 13000ft. I think my Nvidea GeForce 9800 GT would give it a run for its money. By the way, practically all adjustments are made via the Flight Management Computer and take immediate effect without having to restart the simulator. They use entirely different methods of calculation and therefore cannot yield the same results. I have good frame rates (20+ for instance at Mega-Airport Zrich) when in the VC and even better frame rates (30+) with the 2D panels. He is now our man for the fine details, and the focus of his assessment will lie on visuals, haptics and sound. As a result of this, the A pillar in these airplanes is more inclined, and the bulge does not remind me as much of the nose of my former Latin teacher as the one in the PMDG. document.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); document.getElementById( "ak_js_2" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); The PMDG 737-900 for Microsoft Flight Simulator, my comment does not break any of the above rules, Always protect yourself when downloading Torrents, Flightbeam Studios NZAA Auckland International Airport v1.2.0, iniBuilds NZQN Queenstown Airport v1.0.1, iniBuilds KOKC Will Rogers World / Oklahoma City Airport v1.0.2, WorldSky Studios WIMM Kualanamu International Airport v1.0.0, IndiaFoxtEcho AmericaClass LHA Ships v1.1.0, Airwil Sceneries RPME Bancasi / Butuan Airport v2.0.0, Airwil Sceneries RPMG Dipolog Airport v1.3.0, BEAUTIFUL MODEL of the WORLD KMRY Monterey Regional Airport v1.2.0, BEAUTIFUL MODEL of the WORLD LEPP Pamplona Airport v1.0.1 (New Build), 1. Now my wife's greatest friend's I from the. Holger: In spite of everything, we find ourselves in a two-dimensional world: We sit at a computer screen and try to operate a simulated three-dimensional world using a mouse. Cant seem to find anything other than the P3D one, This alarm is not the AP disconnect, it's different. Check your pressurization panel. As I have already indicated, the visuals of the 737 NG exterior model are as a whole correct and feature many details. It really is a joy to work with. And this is indeed the case! Quite Amuse! I have the same issue and cant figure it out either. Please be courteous, English is not my primary language. I could really feel the large mass pushing: The aircraft was quite unwilling to lose airspeed and altitude. Leaving recirculation fans OFF would not prevent pressurisation. All they do is allow the packs to run at a lower airflow rate to improve fuel econ Tim HeptinstallAirports I have been to: Doncaster Robin Hood Airport EGCN, East Midlands (EGNX), Manchester (EGCC), Tenerife South/Reina Sofia Airport (GCTS), Fuerteventura Airport (GCFV), New York John F Kennedy International Airport (KJFK)Aircraft I have travelled on: 737-800 (Thomson), 737-800WL (Thomson, Ryanair), 757-200 (Thomson, Thomas Cook), 757-200WL (Thomson, Thomas Cook, American Airlines), De Havilland Dragon Rapide (Classic Wings G-AIYR). And this is why the better the sound, the better the overall impression. Ive had to wait a long time for this convenience the last payware product that offered this luxury was the Super 80 Pro by Coolsky/Flight1. I was landing at a high elevation airport (10,900 feet) and the cabin altitude warning came on. Its enough to consider an engine failure at or shortly after V1 and the correct response to this problem. CRZ alt and DES alt was set correctly in the pressurization panel so what else should I be checking? iFly released their Boeing 737 NG fleet only a few weeks ago, and we reviewed it here. Or if I adjust the bank limiter instead of the heading bug? PMDG enable their customers to equip their aircraft as they please the real aircraft is available in different configurations, and the same is possible in the simulator. "Safety is our highest priority, and we fully support the FAA's direction," the airline told The New York Times. I suppose a cockpit is anything but a quiet place. You will become aware of many details you would not previously have paid attention to. Depends what aircraft you are flying. If not, we will of course need to divert to the takeoff alternate. It is reassuring, though, that the developers are hard at work on a solution, and we are sure that PMDG will soon be able to offer such a solution. Driveable pushback tug. You will find the signature editor on the ACCOUNT tab, about half way down the page. <> And there is an almost unlimited range of solutions to this problem. I use only a sub-woofer and two tweeters all in all, a pretty standard PC sound system. Here at the Benzinger home, it is customary that I build a Revell model kit for every new FS add-on I buy and in this case, the PMDG model clearly beats it! The one question that remains is about the reviewers choice. I was landing at a high elevation airport (10,900 feet) and the cabin altitude warning came on. Non related things I saw : Your off schedule descent is telling you, you never reached that altitude. PMDGs product philosophy aims not only to deliver a realistic airliner implementation but also to offer corresponding accessories. Forums. For example : the landing gear warning horn sounds continuously if you are at flaps 15+ without the gear down. Posts that are unsigned will be quietly removed without comment by the moderators, so to make your life easy- we recommend enabling your forum signature so that you never need to remember. PMDG 737 for MSFS. But the general impression is very good. You need to be a member in order to leave a comment. Can the PMDG be flown by the numbers? I suppose a cockpit is anything but a quiet place. Or if I adjust the bank limiter instead of the heading bug? We got to discussing the behaviour of the autopilot in good Flight Simulator add-ons and real aircraft. Is it even possible that this PMDG software can simulate a Boeing 737 realistically? AVSIM Online - Simming's Premier Resource! The only weakness I have found in this regard is the way the engine loses thrust when the fuel lever is closed. Look for "Edit Post Signature." What is clear, though, is that even the NGX is not immune to such errors. No requests for older versions of an add-on, this is pointless almost always due to new features/fixes. Tom Allensworth, And this is a good thing after all, there are already more than enough other freeware and payware options for novices .This is not a game, this is a simulation of a working environment. I have to say, though, that I dont have any real aircraft experience to compare to, nor do I have the time to climb into one of the fixed-based simulators in my vicinity. All of this, in combination with the high-resolution textures and the well-executed model, gives the aircraft an incredibly realistic effect. No jerkiness whatsoever! For FSX, this is a real quantum leap and the system is perfect for the PMDG 737 NGX. It seems all the more understandable, then, that such a calculation can, on occasion, go awry To be quite clear: The absolute majority of customers do not have any problems with the product, and PMDG has already released a hotfix to help customers that are suffering crashes. It's easy! I tried pressing the master caution and warning buttons, but the alarm kept going off. We do this in order to keep conversations personal and familiar. What use is the most detailed systems simulation if I have to click through three sub-panels in critical phases of flight with high workload? With winglets or without. And if the nitpickers now go searching for non-functional switches or panels, they will quickly find something in this area: The radar image, which can also be overlaid on the ND, does not exist. Founder of AVSIM Online. In the system requirements, PMDG even writes something about i5 processors .In my view, that should be considered a warning. When I cant fix those I take out my headphones and just make a vroom sound to keep up the immersion. Stefan: In PMDGs forum, Robert S. Randazzo, the head of PMDG, confers the highest accolades on his sound designer, and I would like to echo this praise. "A latent failure of both pressure switches could result in the loss of cabin altitude warning, which could delay flight crew recognition of a lack of cabin pressurization, and result in incapacitation of the flight crew due to hypoxia (a lack of oxygen in the body), and consequent loss of control of the airplane," the agency said. There are a lot of things happening in the flight deck that can cause a warning. But please give PMDG a bit of time its not even two weeks since the release yet. Holger: Complexity is a term that is hard to define precisely in virtual aviation. Information Developer: Precision Manuals Development Group, PMDG Distributor: PMDG Home page:http://www.precisionmanuals.com/ Price: 69,99 US $, available through PMDG, Authors: Oskar Oski Wagner Dr. Stefan Benzinger Holger Kistermann. What is your take on the sound, Stefan? When I browse various forums and seeinexperienced simmers asking questions on the level of what button do I need to press to take off, I do have to say that a certain level of expertise is required. Created by the most recognized and experienced team in desktop flight simulation, the PMDG 737 for Microsoft Flight Simulator is an incredibly detailed, feature rich simulation of the ubiquitous Boeing narrow body. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Thursday warned of a risk that pilots and other crew members could lose consciousness if the cabin altitude switches failed. Valve Corporation. No doubt there will always be some room for discussion whether the trim sound, say, is too quiet or whether the spoiler extension on landing sounds quite so or a bit different. The aerodynamic purpose of this is not quite clear to me, but it is definitely beautiful to watch. Any modern flight guidance system can handle it though only of course if the initial situation is correct. Who knows, maybe an update will address this. 2 0 obj Finally, Holger Kistermann. I'm not up to speed on the pneumatic system as I'm not a 737 pilot IRL, but I suspect this is because you have the isolation valve set to open instead of auto. We do so because we feel that forums in which users must engage one another personally are generally warmer, more collegial and friendly. Not too lazy and not too agile. Precision Manuals Development Group (PMDG) has followed suit and recently released their interpretation of the Boeing 737 NG. Oski: To a certain degree: yes! To what degree the data conversion performed by Navigraph is responsible for this cannot be determined. This really applies to all of the working space of the captain. There is no external tool for this, everything can be configured directly from the Flight Simulator session. The first steps are PPAA -> Power Performance Analysis Action to achieve safe single-engine flight; next, we want to restore system redundancy to the degree possible while of course not forgetting to navigate and under coordination with ATC to manoeuvre to a position from which, after re-programming the FMC, a single engine approach can be made to the departure airport, if this is possible from a meteorological and operational point of view. Holding entries are another sticking point for a precise FMC simulation. I see he was talking about something different now. Thought it was the other Horn he was talking about. The one that goes off when you forget to tu No I think thats different. Along with the advice above, may I recommend Emi's YouTube channel, which is a wealth of great information on everything 737. WebPMDG Failure Name in FMC: PRESSURIZATION -> PRESSURE HULL INTEGRITY Note 1: Trigger this failure above 14,000 feet Note 2: The Cabin Altitude warning horn is your There would be an audible alarm, though not cabin alt horn, but master caution alarm, if UNSCHED DES is present. Holger: Oski, you fly with a multi-monitor setup, right? 3 0 obj Virtual cockpit model, with ultra high detail textures, 3D rendering and reflective properties. Holger: Oski, why do you recommend that even experienced Boeing 737 NG pilots should use the documentation (at the very least parts of it) to familiarize themselves with this add-on? Where can I find HGS Settings to setup the approach? Holger: Stefan, if you look at photos of a real 737 NG and compare them with the PMDG copy, you conclude that it comes pretty close to the original. Hardcore simmers will surely be delighted to note that printed manuals are available covering everything from Crew Training to the Quick Reference Handbook. You also have the option to opt-out of these cookies. The bottom line is that PMDG has released a truly excellent product! Sign up for a new account in our community. Better solutions to this are possible, as A2A, for example, have demonstrated strikingly with their sound system. Quite simple: The better is always the enemy of the good. Obviously, George also has problems from time to time with leveling off exactly at a given altitude or predicting a descent point precisely. But I have every trust in the expertise of PMDGs team and in the communitys swarm intelligence. Here at the Benzinger home, it is customary that I build a Revell model kit for every new FS add-on I buy and in this case, the PMDG model clearly beats it! Powered by Discourse, best viewed with JavaScript enabled, is there a way to turn off this warning/alarm? By the way, the setup option in the CDU allows the acoustic backdrop to be adjusted to personal taste again, this is a real innovation and one of the strengths of the product. High complexity, good design and great sound do not necessarily guarantee that flying the PMDG will provide hours of fun with lots of ahhhs and ohhhs. I went to my doors page on the fmc and found that cargo hatch was left open and was unable to close it in the air. I don't think those will cause the horn to go off. Review : SXAirportDesign El Paso International Airport P3D5, Review : RFscenerybuilding Brussels South Charleroi International Airport P3D5, Review : Pro Flight Trainer PUMA X and Flight Sim Coach experience with MSFS, MLD Scenery LRIA Iasi Announced for MSFS, Configuration of the aircraft from the cockpit without a restart, Crash to desktop (CTD) on some systems (see PMDG support forum). . Today, he consults for and tests various Flight Simulator projects. Free customer support both at our customer forum and directly from our support team if necessary. As a result of this, the A pillar in these airplanes is more inclined, and the bulge does not remind me as much of the nose of my former Latin teacher as the one in the PMDG. Its very annoying and I ended up having to turn cockpit warnings volume to zero in the MSFS settings). Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. This page was generated at 03:28. You always stop PACKS for Takeoffs & Landings too in case of a Go-Around. Even a few years ago, flight instructors in airliner flight schools would have shaken their heads at the mere thought. But before we can award the reviewers choice to this add-on, PMDG needs to fix the CTDs for good and then we will follow through. PMDGs customized, flight model with enhanced physics augmentation. WebCabin altitude alarm on 737-800NGX, I dont know how to fix it 22 13 Related Topics X-Plane Flight simulation Sim game Gaming 13 comments Best Add a Comment Be sure to click the "Show Signatures" box. Did you set your cruise altitude on the overhead? By default its at 10,000 and if your cruise level is going to be 35,000 feet for example you need Feb. 2018 um 9:58 Ursprnglich geschrieben von It makes the transition to single-engine flight much too harmless. A marketing and sales director in real life, he is also a beta tester and project consultant and has been with simFlight for ages. Honestly speaking I would feel very uncomfortable about this in real life, particularly if you consider that one of the main purposes of a go-around is to regain altitude quickly. Native PMDG datalink simulation compatible with simBrief integration. Stefan: No, on the contrary: To start the engines, youhaveto switch to the VC to open the fuel valves.
