Success With First FsP Flight w/PMG 747!

[Joeflyer]

Completed a flight from MEM to La Chinita Intl in Venezuela and somehow got the aircraft up to a final cruising altitude of FL340. Had to
nurse that big baby on up there. There for a while that nagging stick shaker sound drowned out ATC calls Got into quite a bit of
turbulence while enroute to La Chinita and it was amazing that this aircraft's wings stayed on! Loved watching the wings flexing like crazy
though Here are some screenies from the new PMG 747 adventure:

i think you forgot to switch over your altimeter to STD one of the screens shows the yellow indicator on the PFD 29.92in

[Cactus757]

oh yea and another thing.....i dont know if its just me but when i cruise in the pmdg 747-400 i cruise at .85 mach. Now of course this all
depends on winds and all that so im not bashing you. Every pilot flys differently. It just seems like your creepin along at 445 gs. next flight
you should try opening her up and stretchin her legs

I'll take any constructive criticism I can get It's much appreciated! After all, I want to make sure I'm doing EVERYTHING correctly. Silly me,
I'll pay more attention to that on the next flight.

Since there was quite a bit of turbulence along the flight, even at different altitudes, I slowed the beast down. I'd rather be safe than sorry
Any time I fly across the "pond" to S. America, I can always count on getting knocked around quite a bit by the turbulence...mostly due to
the thunderstorms I encounter on every trip.

Thanks again for your input!
