  • Page 7 INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE PMDG MD-11 The MD-11 is the third “from scratch” product that PMDG has produced for the Microsoft Flight Simulator Community. In the five years since the release of our first Microsoft Flight Simulator based product, the PMDG 737, we have spent many hours investigating and learning from reports made by our customers.
  • Page 8 The PMDG Sounds menu is used to customize some options related to the sound set installed with your PMDG MD-11. The PMDG menu provides you with access to a wide array of options that you may use to customize your PMDG MD-11 experience. These options are described later in this chapter.
  • Page 9 INTRODUCTION PMDG Sounds Menu: The PMDG Sounds menu provides a simple to use tool that will allow you to balance the volume of sounds produced by the PMDG aircraft (such as GPWS and TCAS callouts) with those produced by the simulator. The tool works just like a volume control knob, and is pre-set to Mid-Level, which should be acceptable on most hardware configurations.
  • Page 10 0.00.10 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION The PMDG menu is selected from the main FSX menu bar by selecting ADDONS, then PMDG. The following menu is then presented: This menu gives you access to the interface from which the you can customize your PMDG MD-11 equipment, operation and reliability. The user can also save and load cockpit states from this menu after saving flights while they are in progress.
  • Page 11 PMDG MD-11. Save Panel State Menu: The PMDG Save Panel State Menu is used to save the current state of the panel, switches, aircraft systems and FMS data from within Microsoft Flight Simulator.

  • Page 13 In this instance, you can reload a saved flight and the PMDG MD-11 panel state and resume the flight normally. Note that loading/saving a panel state alone (with no corresponding MSFS saved flight) is to be used mainly on the ground to switch between standard states, like “cold &dark”...
  • Page 14 System Failure List: There are more than 175 mechanical failure scenarios that can be triggered by the user in the PMDG MD-11. These failure scenarios are presented in the menu on the left side of the Failures Menu.
  • Page 15 0.00.15 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION Activating Failures: There are three ways that a user can fail systems in the PMDG MD-11: Immediate Failure • Timed Failure • Random Failures • Activating Immediate Failures: Immediate Failures are mostly self explanatory. Select the desired system component from the left side of the Failures Menu, then check the ACTIVATE box on the right side of the menu.
  • Page 16 “Category” on the failures menu. Next, select ALL from the menu list, and you will be given the opportunity to set a random, global failure rate for your MD-11 simulation. Determine the Failure Rate: Random failures require that the user select a “rate”...
  • Page 17 0.00.17 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION failures will average 1 failure for 10 hrs of flight time. (Example: 2 failures that occur 1 minute apart might be the only failures you see during 20 hours in flight. As such, they fit the 1/10 failure rate.) When setting a global rate for failure events, you are telling the simulator to provide you with a random mixture of four different types of failures.
  • Page 18 0.00.18 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION In the example graphic below, you are setting a relatively high rate of nuisance failures, meaning that the rate of incidence is going to approximate 6 events in 10 hours of flight time. However, you will only receive 3 incidents.
  • Page 19 0.00.19 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION You will also find that the Quick Reference Handbook is an invaluable tool when abnormal conditions arise in flight. When reacting to an alert or message, you should immediately turn to the QRH for guidance on trouble shooting and addressing the problem.

  • Page 20: Options Menu

    The PMDG Options menu for the PMDG MD-11 is shown below: On the left side of this menu are listed six categories. Each category contains a range of options that the user can modify to change the PMDG MD-11 experience as desired.
  • Page 21 • Colors: Modify the colors displayed on the PFD/ND/FMC-CDU. • Fuel: Adjust the fuel load on your PMDG MD-11. Airline Options - Displays: The Airline Options – Displays menu page allows the user to select from many variations in the way information is displayed to the crew via the cockpit displays.

  • Page 23 Cost Index, winds and aircraft weight. Navigation Data: Since the MD-11 is not reasonably operated from airports with short runways, many operators only include information in the Flight Management System airport database for suitable runways.
  • Page 24 There are a number of options that allow you to customize your simulation experience to suit your tastes. Panel Window Management: The PMDG MD-11 uses a unique new panel control logic feature to simplify the process of finding information in the cockpit by allowing you to open only those 2D panel sections that you really need based upon what you are looking for.
  • Page 25 Synchronize CAPT and F/O baro settings: The PMDG MD-11 provides an incredible level of realism in that two separate and fully functioning autopilot control units have been implemented.
  • Page 26 This option allows the user to enable the ability to override the autopilot and autothrottle through use of the user’s hardware flight controls. In the MD-11, the pilot can manually override the autopilot/autothrottles by exerting a specific amount of force on the controls while the autopilot is engaged.
  • Page 27 CLAMP mode. Please Note: PMDG receives a significant amount of email from customers who report that the autopilot occasionally disconnects “for no reason.” Upon investigation we usually find that the user’s joystick is out of tune and/or exhibits signal spiking behavior.
  • Page 28 Colors Options Menu: PMDG has pre-selected the correct colors for use on the displays of the PMDG MD-11. In the instance that the user wishes to modify the color settings to suit their display monitor or personal tastes, we have provided the ability to do so through the color options menu.
  • Page 29 The arrow up/down buttons are useful for small adjustments. When you press the APPLY NOW button, the PMDG MD-11 will be fueled to the quantity specified. Additionally, the fuel management card logic will correctly distribute fuel in accordance with standard operating procedures for the MD-11 and correctly configure the fuel system for the loaded quantity.

  • Page 44 0.00.44 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION Disabling VC Head Latency: In FSX, head latency (movement) is turned on by default in the Virtual Cockpit. This can create problems for some users. If you wish to disable head latency in the VC, you must make a minor modification to the Views.CFG file that is installed by FSX.
  • Page 45 The essence of the PMDG MD-11 2D Panel Control schema is based around click spots located at strategic locations throughout the 2D panel-set. When the user moves the mouse over one of these click spots, the mouse cursor changes in order to help the user understand what options are available via the click-spot.
  • Page 46 0.00.46 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION Close Panel Cursor: This cursor indicates that you can use the left mouse button to close the current panel window. The mouse click spot is usually located on the top-left corner of the panel window. Close or Isolate Panel Segment Cursor: This cursor is used for overhead panel components or the entire overhead panel is displayed.
  • Page 47 0.00.47 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION A left mouse click when the “+” cursor is displayed will open the display unit on a new window of larger dimensions. This window will initially be displayed at the bottom left corner (over the PFD) but it can be dragged to any location.
  • Page 48 0.00.48 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION This image shows the mouse click hotspots that are primarily used to control the 2D panel, as well as the cursor the user will see when the mouse is moved over these click spots.

  • Page 80 0.00.80 PMDG MD-11 INTRODUCTION The MCDU on the PMDG MD-11 operates significantly differently. Here are a few items to keep you from making mistakes: 1) After entering your origin/destination, if you are building the flight plan by hand it is generally recommended to work from your destination forward.
  • Page 81 One other area where Boeing centric pilots will find some interesting chin-scratching moments is the Autopilot Control Panel. The Autopilot on the MD-11 is just as capable as that on any airliner in the sky, but operates with a different design philosophy. It might take you a few flights to get used to how it operates, especially if you are used to having multiple mode buttons such as on the PMDG 747-400.
  • Page 82 If you accidentally go into a manual altitude control mode, simply press PROF once again. 5) Autothrottle on the MD-11 is designed to be a full flight control. The autothrottle system is armed on the ground by pressing the autoflight switch.
