after the update 3.0.93 b737 and specifically on the 700 and 900 the tablet and all keys and switches are missing in the cold and dark what has happened does anyone else have this problem?
I only have the -600 and it is perfectly fine, just landed at LEAS and everything looks ok.
Not in 737 but have the same issues pre/post balkans updates. Still for the Alps/Adriatic/Balkans
Full reinstall and still Xbox powered off after a few minutes. No issue anywhere else.
Canāt even do the bush trips in that area.
Yes, it is not exclusive to the 737 - I had issues there with the Cj4 and the A310 as wellā¦ ridiculous.
This has been my concern with the 777 from the start. Anyone that buys it (me included) will be stuck at whatever AIRAC cycle PMDG chooses to ship with it.
As we have seen with the 737, weāre still no further ahead with the AIRAC cycle update. At the very least if there was a disclosure of this information on the Marketplace, it would be a matter of being informed that this was the case.
Either way, the matter exists that Xbox users cannot update their purchase(s) from PMDG. This is a major sticking point for me because weāre paying top dollar for the product(s).
Was this issue not identified before release to the console?

I like the fact pmdg told the navdata issue would be looked at after the uft release, after that it was announced after the 777 release. Maybe they will tell us that it will be worked on after the 737 max release in 2025

Pmdg has my money for the 737 so not really in a hurry to get the navdata issue resolved itās been two years now so I wonāt be making any new Xbox aircraft purchases from pmdg until the issue is fixed who knows how long that will take as they probably concentrating on the the 737max

Apparently they are working on it with Navigraph to get it sorted - but yeah - not got a lot of faith in it happening any time soon
Nothing, couldnāt load the PMDG 737 going from Riga to Tallinn and no go 4X this morning so I gave up. The EFB wouldnāt even calculate and give me numbers and then no buttons could be activated.
I tried tonight and same thing, but at least the EFB calculated the numbers when I switched from CYUL to KBOS. More CTDs though so after 3X I switched over to the A320 v2 and after 4 loads with no EFB and BSs everywhere, I gave up, again.
Any other simmers having similar problems? Iām on Xbox series X so may be I should direct the issues to
that audience.
Lately, my 73s - I have the 6, 8, and 9 - quite often have been starting with yokes tight in a left turn attitude, no power, and no EFB. I have to restart the scenario and most often the plane starts up as it usually did when I first bought it.
I use PC, so you might post on a page with the PMDG as its discussion topic
Hi. Iām on Xbox Series X as well. I do occasionally get problems loading complex airliners - black avionics/EFB screens usually.
I then need to close the app from the home screen and reboot it. (home button, remove MSFS from quick start and then reload).
Iāve also found from experience that removing 3rd party add-ons can help reduce this issue. Particular offenders tend to be airportsā¦
The PMDG planes are not generally a problem in my experience - my 737-800 is the best performing complex airliner in my hanger both from a FPS and stability perspective.

I havenāt tried PMDGās 737 yet, but today I tried Inibuilds new A320 and although it did not work from CYUL, I had success launching it at CYWG. Both airports are from 3rd party developers and who knows thy there was a glitch yesterday. I will try the 737 later from CYWG and keep my fingers crossed.
I hope that with the launch of the 777 and its subsequent arrival on Xbox, PMDG will work more extensively on updating the AIRAC for their products on Xbox with the help of Navigraph.
Flying a medium-haul aircraft with an outdated AIRAC is somewhat tolerable. However, undertaking long-haul flights must be quite uncomfortable if the pilot decides to manually input the route and the FMC returns āunknown airwayā or ānonexistent waypoint.ā
I know that Mathijs Kok (one of the PMDG leaders) is doing a good job being active both on the PMDG forum, which is their main hub, and here on the MSFS forum, and will relay our demands to the PMDG development team.

Just look one of the plenty Videos on youtube. It is easy to find
So far the PMDG 737 has been stellar, no idea what went wrong the other day!

Iāve done 2 flights to test it out so far and both times for some reasons the plane keeps going into super sonic mode, like the sim has been sped up but Iām not pressing anything
Anyone got any ideas ?
