    Re: Climbing too steeply !

    Full version, I paid 18 euro's for it, although this morning I saw on Simmarket it was a little more, I just registered it from within program, it was worth paying for it just for the PM cdu to show correct figures.

    Cheers

    Re: Climbing too steeply !

    I don´t know why, but my free version is running when using the 737 POSKY model.
    There are some limitations for computing some figures, but I can use most of the program, and that includes the Loadsheet with the trim settings, Weight&balance setup, T/O and Landing computation of V1,Vr,V2, for the various runways available, all with downloaded current weather.
    Anyhow, 18 Euros is really not [I]that[I] much, is it?

    Re: Climbing too steeply !

    When it comes to flight sim my respect for money is somewhat downsized I fly the PMDG 737 mixed class as I have that as my prefered aircraft, not sure what Posky relates to, perhaps you could enlighten me please

    Re: Climbing too steeply !

    Posky (short for Project Open Sky) is a freeware product availabe e.g. here: www.avsim.com. Their 737NG models are - in view of many - superior to the FS9 default 737 flight model, but certainly inferior to PMDGs 737. Since PMDG don´t have an open politic concerning their aircraft model, especially when it comes to offsets and programming help with hardware interfaces, many homecockpit builders use the POSKY model instead. I don´t know if PMDGs attitude will eventually bank more than 45° with the upcoming 737NGX for FS X. But even if so, there will likely be problems with hardware interfaces of the various hardware manufacturers. You can add to the list of 737NG flight models the Ariane 737, and - only lately - the IFly737. I have no experience with these products, whatsoever, but I suspect, they will have their issues, too, namely the hardware compatibility. So what probably many home cockpit builders would like to have, is an accurate 737NG aircraft model, better than the Posky, maybe as good as PMDGs, but to date, there is no such accurate and pricey product, AFAIK.

    Re: Climbing too steeply !

    Just use CG between 18 and 20 , and this will give you the takeoff trim set up. Cost index between 25 and 30 .
