Just curious as some people like to fly one type/same family, some like GA, others only fly cargo, some fly only one airline/for one VA, and the rest do everything in between. Myself? I fly pretty much anything I can get my hands on (atleast once), and I love to fly to new airports or arrive/depart from a new airport. Also curious on what sims yall use, I fly mainly on XP12 and MSFS2024 but I also have FSX for the PMDG 747-400

anyone know of a crack for the PMDG addons to FSX?

Hi all, ive got Kai Tak and the old procedures loaded into the various DAT files and such for XP12 to a point where 3rd party FMCs will recognize VHHX and see the procedures. However the default laminar FMC used in the 737 and the MCDU in the a333 refuse to recognize VHHX as an airport, however it is still present on the ND. ChatGPT says "What I suspect is happening is that the Laminar FMC builds its airport database from an internal compiled airport index and is stricter than third-party FMCs. There are examples where third-party avionics can use procedure data that the default avionics won't handle."
That being said, is there a way to get VHHX to load into the default FMC/MCDU? Thanks!

I have flown this shitbox of an aircraft exactly twice and both times have ended in disaster. First off this thing turns like a fruit fly, im talking one milimeter of yoke movement and your at a 90* bank angle. Secondly the VNAV refuses to actually decend or follow. I should have to have the spoilers at flight detent for the entire decent including under 10000. And finally, 3rd, the engines take atleast 9 days to spool up. Yeah, I get it, aircraft engines are slow to spool up, but instead whoever programmed the engines decided that anything under 1.20 epr (using PWs, ive not experiemented with any other engine variant.) is virtually equal to idle. This also bring up another point, why does the autothrottle actively spool the engines up even when the SPD is commanded lower than the current airspeed? Because the flight model is so deeply flawed that the engines need to be spooled up so it will loose speed... somehow...

Anyways, maybe someone else has had a better experience flying it. Ive flown the 747 by Felis extensively, and my opinion is its one of the best addons for Xp.. maybe im too used to flying that? I dont know.. I desperately want to love it because the 747 as a whole is awesome and the -400 and -800/8I doesnt deserve to be left out, but until a professional developer makes a high quality one ill be unhappy.

No hate towards Sparky or any of the devs who helped, it has some great features sure, but in its current state the flight model and autopilot is too deeply flawed to love it.

Hello all, I fly a lot of the Felis 747 and im hoping to broaden my classic abilities. I know about the FJS aircraft for 11, but I dont own 11 (although I do have enough .org points for the 737). I dont particularly care about what the aircraft is as long as its commerical and not general aviation (GA is fun and all, but I want airliners.), so pretty much anything withought vnav and lcd displays. Thanks!
