Hi Josh, I asked that very same question a few nights ago. I am told it is a programming error that they are in the process of correcting. I was also informed that by adjusting the screen resolution up, it might help although it did nothing for me. I am sure they will let us know when they have corrected the problem as the DVA team is great at fixing problems and getting information back to us. Anyway, welcome to DVA!!

The next-generation 737 installer is almost complete. I spent some time after getting home fixing a language issue that plagued all of the "almost-ready" installers (CRJ, CV-880, DC-8, 727, 757, 767, 7E7) and then downloaded the latest Kitthawk 737-800. You should get not just a better panel but a better model, too.
I know you PMDG guys will probably turn your noses up at it, but I hope to have a really first-rate freeware fleet.
Cheers!

I can't remember. Let me dig around - I know it's the Robert Versluys model, with the Kevin Mitchell panel with a few hacks and a custom XML gauge of my own (nothing huge, just a yaw damper switch).
I gave the Kittyhawk 738 a test flight today, but it's seriously FS9-only; doesn't even appear in FS2002. I might stick with the old IFDG 738. Other than that the 737 Fleet Installer is looking really, really good. The 737NG panel works just fine in FS9, and I was able to take a great screenshot for the installer splash screen.
Cheers!

The 737-800 is almost there. I took her out for a spin out of KBFI last night and all was well except duplicate altitude callouts on descent.
Cheers!

Hello All,
I would like to know if the 737-800 is fixed. I haven't flown in a while and I was wondering if Luke has finished it. Please let me know something.
