Thanks for the reply Thomas. I had tried without the CH Control Manager but couldn't get the CH Quadrant to calibrate properly. The first two levers actually show up in the Windows API as a single joystick with an X and Y axis (have not idea why). The calibration would trip out when I tried to calibrate those two levers. That's why I thought the CH Control Manager was necessary. This morning I started all over. I uninstalleld CH Control Manager, reinstalled FSUIPC, calibrated in the Windows API (the first two levers still show up as a single joystick but it worked this time) and yes

I have the latest registered version of FSUIPC installed. I just installed a CH Products Throttle Quadrant and I have been struggling for days to calibrate the throttles. I have calibrated the throttle quadrant device with the CH Control Manager software per the instructions. When I do, all 6 levers show a smooth continuous change in output value as I move the levers from full back, through the detent to full forward. When I then assigned the two left levers to Throttle1 and Throttle2 and calibrate in FSUIPC, Throttle 1 shows a smooth continuous change in input/output as I move it

My first installation of Super traffic board worked properly. Clicking on an AI would go to an external view of the AI in flight. After a complete reinstall of FSX, reinstall of Super Traffic and update to latest version of Super Traffic now clicking on an AI brings up a Flight Data window instead of showing the flight. How do I correct this?

Thank you one and all for clearing this up. I hunted high and low in forums, documentations etc with what I though was reasonable key words and could not find this information. I have come to the conclusion that getting a stable FSX simulator with acceptable performance and figuring all of the stuff like this out is 10 times harder than learning to fly the PMDG 737NGX.

Volker, I'm not sure I understand you response. The dialog box you quote gives me the option of "YES" or "CANCEL" (I think). So I was assuming this was asking for "permission" to save the SID's, Stars etc....which I did. But there are no SIDs or Stars I did note that I had not added any airways (the SID and STAR where close to each other and automatically connected). I added an airway and the STAR shows up in the FMC...the SID still does not. Does it have to do with the fact that I am not first selecting the Runway in the DEP/APP function before loading the flight plan into the FMC...I'

Okay, thanks (I just purchased NGX so there wasn't a separate SP1b to install (it was built in to the download) but I'm assuming the notes are available somewhere)

When I create a flight plan in FS Commander with appropriate SID and STAR and then save it to PMDG format I get the dialog box which reads " Saving FlightPlan include SID's, Star's and Transition for PMDG?" I select "YES". For example I create the following flight plan in FSC: KSEA HAROB4.HISKU PYE1.ENI MENLO KSFO and save it in PMDG format. But when I load the flight plan into the 737 NGX FMC I only get two waypoints, ENI and MENLO. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone help.
