The first 737 flew in 1967. Boeing retained the six-abreast fuselage width familiar from its earlier jets while placing two engines under the wing. The aircraft subsequently developed through the Original, Classic, Next Generation and MAX generations.
Engines, displays and systems differ between the early 737-200, the 737-800 and the 737 MAX. Simulator products add another layer of variation, from bundled aircraft to specialist implementations with their own failures, options and documentation.

A cross-country flight in the MAX 9
Bedell’s MAX 9 trip begins with a familiar cockpit wrapped around noticeably larger displays. He describes the same confined working space, overhead switches and trim wheels he knew from earlier 737s, alongside quieter engines and small practical improvements such as extra cupholders and glareshield buttons. The longer engine-start sequence and stronger idle thrust were immediately apparent during preparation and taxi.
Once airborne, he found the initial climb unhurried, although intermediate level-offs prevented a clean comparison. Cruise was where the newer aircraft impressed him: he recorded lower fuel consumption, a quieter cockpit and an arrival ahead of schedule with more fuel than planned. He also preferred its behaviour during full-flap approaches. These are observations from one flight and his operating experience, rather than a controlled performance trial or a general assessment of every MAX variant.
Trading the fighter mission for an airline flight
Wooten describes a striking change in what occupied his attention after leaving the US Air Force in early 2022. In the F-15E, he had concentrated on tactics and employing the aircraft. In the 737, the conversation centred on departure, arrival, weather and giving passengers a smooth journey. He remembers the surprise of making his first actual 737 landing with a cabin full of passengers after the airline’s simulator-based preparation.
That experience did not mean there was nothing left to learn. He was still developing familiarity with the avionics and a new set of cockpit habits, helped by the airline’s mentoring process. The working relationships felt different too: a captain and first officer might share a trip and never meet again, unlike a close-knit fighter squadron.
Learning a lighter touch after the MD-80
The author recalls arriving for the first 737 trip after weeks of ground school, simulator sessions and checks, aware that the passengers could not know it was their pilot’s first flight in the actual aircraft. A check airman accompanied the three-day period of initial operating experience. After many years on the MD-80, the move had been a deliberate search for a new challenge, and confidence grew noticeably between the first and final approaches.
The greatest handling adjustment was learning to use smaller, lighter inputs. The author also welcomed the electronic displays and automated loading of route, weather and loading information, while admitting that the data-entry sequence still required care. Landings took longer to become satisfying, especially as the instructor varied flap settings and the sight picture changed. The account describes the process of becoming comfortable in a new type; its comparisons are the writer’s personal impressions.

The first 737 flew in 1967. Boeing retained the six-abreast fuselage width familiar from its earlier jets while placing two engines under the wing. The aircraft subsequently developed through the Original, Classic, Next Generation and MAX generations.
The factory starting point selects Boeing 737-800 across MSFS 2024, X-Plane 12, X-Plane 11, MSFS 2020.
Spring resistance builds with the selected airspeed response. Directed aerodynamic loading is omitted.
Pitch-trim relief is off. Autopilot following is enabled for supported control references.
Questa revisione esatta non è ancora abilitata per l’installazione pubblica.
Controls and trim
The 737's aileron feel uses a cam, roller and spring-centering unit with breakout and gradient that stays constant with airspeed. Pitch artificial feel differs, so the total pitch-to-roll effort balance can change with speed. PMDG's NG introduction also distinguishes electric-trim limits by model and flap state, and CWS from CMD. Those NG details are not automatically MAX, Classic or early-737 interface evidence.
Pitch and roll feel
The aircraft’s documented roll spring is speed-independent. This revision uses a shared profile airspeed response where enabled; it does not provide a separate measured pitch-versus-roll feel schedule.
About the values
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
Master gain & control system
Master gain100%
La scala finale complessiva applicata a tutto ciò che il modello produce, prima del limite del dispositivo.
Più: tutto (molla, carichi, effetti) si rafforza insieme.
Meno: tutto si ammorbidisce insieme.
Perché qui: Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.
Forces
Spring strength20%
La forza di centraggio di base che riporta la barra al centro. Ogni altra forza si somma a questa. Troppo bassa e la barra sembra molle in volo normale; troppo alta e combatte la mano, mascherando i segnali più piccoli sovrapposti.
Più: un centraggio più fermo che resiste di più alla mano.
Meno: una barra più molle che conta solo sul carico aerodinamico.
Perché qui: The fixed roll-feel mechanism and separate pitch artificial feel motivate distinct axis balance; an aerodynamic scale alone cannot describe total pitch/roll effort. The baseline spring is 0.2. Low-speed spring blending is off.
PMDG 737 for MSFS - Introduction (PDF)Spring deadband0%
Una piccola zona neutra attorno al centro dove la molla resta silenziosa, così i micro-movimenti a riposo non vibrano. Più larga è più tranquilla ma più lasca; più stretta è più precisa ma può fremere attorno al centro.
Più: un centro più calmo ma più lasco, con più gioco.
Meno: un centro più serrato che può fremere a riposo.
Perché qui: Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.
Forces · Center starting force0.08
Perché qui: Adds smoothly ramped resistance outside the centre deadband. Zero removes this preload.
Overall aerodynamic load0%
Una scala maestra su entrambi i carichi d'asse sostenuti, applicata prima del loro bilanciamento indipendente. Di norma i profili la lasciano stare e regolano i due carichi d'asse.
Più: entrambi gli assi caricano più forte.
Meno: entrambi gli assi si alleggeriscono insieme.
Perché qui: The 0 gain omits sustained directed airspeed loading. Spring resistance remains independent.
Spring engagement full122 kt
La velocità a cui la molla raggiunge la piena forza. Tra l'inizio e questo punto il centraggio si irrigidisce progressivamente man mano che il flusso cresce sui comandi.
Perché qui: Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.
Centre firmness vs speed100%
Quanto il centraggio stesso si irrigidisce con la velocità, oltre ai carichi da deflessione. Zero mantiene costante la sensazione del centro; di più fa centrare la barra più dura in crociera e più lasca in circuito.
Più: un centro che si indurisce nettamente con la velocità.
Meno: una sensazione di centro costante a ogni velocità.
Perché qui: The high-speed spring-stiffening gain is 1. It strengthens the permitted spring response above 122 KIAS, with the squared-speed ratio capped at 7.8.
Centre stiffening cap7.8
Il limite superiore all'irrigidimento del centro dovuto alla velocità, così il volo molto veloce non può caricare la molla senza limite.
Più: più irrigidimento totale concesso ad alta velocità.
Meno: l'irrigidimento si ferma prima.
Perché qui: Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.
Aileron load180%
Il carico sostenuto di rollio da deflessione degli alettoni e velocità, bilanciato indipendentemente dal beccheggio. Insieme al carico dell'equilibratore fissa il rapporto di armonia dei comandi di cui parlano le recensioni.
Più: sforzi di rollio più pesanti.
Meno: alettoni più leggeri e scattanti.
Perché qui: Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 1.8 and 0.9, respectively. These stored weights do not create directed aerodynamic loading while that term is inactive. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled.
Elevator load90%
Il carico sostenuto di beccheggio da deflessione dell'equilibratore e velocità, bilanciato indipendentemente dal rollio. È la leva principale dietro il peso di beccheggio di un tipo. Non tocca alettoni, molla, trim né forze di buffet.
Più: sforzi di beccheggio sostenuti più pesanti in velocità.
Meno: una profondità più leggera, meno muscolosa da tenere.
Perché qui: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.
Max output force70%
Un tetto su ogni forza stabile di beccheggio o rollio prima che raggiunga il dispositivo, a protezione da colpi o saturazioni dell'hardware nelle manovre energiche.
Più: picchi di forza stabile più alti prima del taglio.
Meno: un tetto più morbido; le manovre dure si appiattiscono prima.
Perché qui: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.
Forces · Center starting force transition0.05
Perché qui: Sets the travel used to ramp in centre preload. Wider intervals make its onset more gradual.
Airspeed blendingFalse
Attiva la finestra di innesto della molla a bassa velocità (nodi di inizio/pieno qui sopra). Spento, la molla è costante a ogni velocità.
Perché qui: Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.
Low-speed spring floor55%
Quanta molla sopravvive da fermo, prima che la velocità possa generare forza aerodinamica. Un pavimento alto tiene salda la barra parcheggiata; uno basso dà la sensazione lasca, da cavi allentati, di un aereo leggero in sosta.
Più: una barra più salda in sosta e al rullaggio.
Meno: una barra molle da fermo che si sveglia solo con la velocità.
Perché qui: Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.
Spring engagement start0 kt
La velocità a cui la molla comincia a salire dal suo pavimento di bassa velocità verso la piena forza: i comandi che «prendono vita» in corsa di decollo.
Perché qui: Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.
Velocità di regolazione della forza280
La velocità indicata a cui il carico aerodinamico raggiunge il livello pieno di progetto. Ancora l'intera curva di carico al reale intervallo di velocità dell'aereo: un 172 carica verso 110 nodi, un jet molto più tardi.
Più: i carichi arrivano più tardi; la barra resta leggera fino a velocità più alte.
Meno: i carichi arrivano prima e la crociera pesa di più.
Perché qui: Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.
Trim
Trim relief (elevator)30%
Quanto il trim di profondità allevia lo sforzo di beccheggio mantenuto e sposta dove la barra si assesta. Al 100 %, un aereo trimmato bene non richiede pressione mantenuta: il flusso di lavoro trimma-via-il-carico del volo reale.
Più: il trim toglie più sforzo mantenuto; al 100 %, trim pieno lo annulla.
Meno: continui a tenere sforzo anche trimmato.
Perché qui: Documented electric-trim limits vary with model and flap state; a selected trim response is a simplification and does not recreate every NG or MAX trim law. Pitch relief is off, with stored authority 0.3; roll authority is 0.09.
PMDG 737 for MSFS - Introduction (PDF)Trim relief (aileron)9%
Lo stesso sollievo per il trim di rollio. La maggior parte dei tipi di aviazione generale non ha un vero trim degli alettoni, quindi resta a zero; i tipi con trim di rollio ricevono un valore corrispondente.
Più: il trim di rollio toglie più sforzo mantenuto.
Meno: il trim di rollio fa meno.
Perché qui: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.
Effect gains · Ground
Runway rumble40%
Vibrazione di rotolamento da velocità delle ruote e tipo di superficie: asfalto, erba o ghiaia sotto il carrello.
Più: una texture di superficie più forte nella barra.
Meno: un rullaggio più liscio.
Perché qui: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.
Gear bumps32%
Colpi brevi e discreti da giunti di dilatazione, solchi e superficie irregolare, che punteggiano il rombo continuo.
Più: colpi più netti da giunti e solchi.
Meno: dettagli del suolo più morbidi.
Perché qui: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.
Effect gains · Airframe
Stick shaker90%
Il ronzio dedicato dello stick shaker di stallo, attivato dal sistema di avviso dell'aereo stesso. Solo i tipi con un vero shaker ricevono un valore; tutti gli altri si affidano al buffet aerodinamico e alla sirena.
Più: uno shaker più duro.
Meno: uno shaker più discreto.
Perché qui: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.
Stall buffet30%
Scuotimento della cellula in avvicinamento allo stallo e con l'avviso attivo: quanto forte quest'ala annuncia di essere scontenta. I tipi con distacco netto ricevono buffet modesto e lasciano l'avviso alla sirena.
Più: un tremito pre-stallo più forte.
Meno: un'ala più discreta; la sirena porta l'avviso.
Perché qui: Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.
Mach buffet44%
Buffet transonico in avvicinamento al limite di Mach. Significativo per i jet vicino a MMO, zero per pistoni e turboelica che non ci arrivano mai.
Più: un buffet transonico più forte vicino al limite di Mach.
Meno: un volo più liscio ad alto Mach.
Perché qui: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.
Flap buffet36%
Vibrazione a bassa frequenza della cellula con i flap estesi nel flusso, nella finestra di velocità in cui lavorano davvero l'aria.
Più: un volo più ruvido con i flap al lavoro.
Meno: flap d'avvicinamento più morbidi.
Perché qui: Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.
Gear buffet38%
Il tambureggiare della cellula per il carrello retrattile appeso nel flusso. Zero per i tipi a carrello fisso, dove la cellula non cambia mai forma.
Più: più tambureggiare col carrello fuori.
Meno: un volo col carrello fuori più pulito.
Perché qui: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.
Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag
Touchdown thump90%
Il colpo singolo quando le ruote toccano la pista, scalato dal rateo di discesa: un atterraggio di velluto sussurra, un arrivo deciso batte.
Più: un colpo più duro al contatto.
Meno: arrivi più morbidi.
Perché qui: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.
Reverse rumble50%
Vibrazione in corsa mentre lavorano l'inversione di spinta o le eliche in beta. Zero per i tipi senza reverse.
Più: una corsa più ruvida in reverse.
Meno: una reverse più discreta.
Perché qui: Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.
Engine rumble11%
Vibrazione continua del propulsore che segue i giri tra minimo e piena potenza, il promemoria sempre presente che qualcosa brucia carburante davanti.
Più: più motore nella barra.
Meno: un motore più discreto.
Perché qui: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.
Flap motion34%
Vibrazione continua solo mentre il simulatore riporta le superfici dei flap davvero in movimento. Segue il moto reale dell'attuatore e i guasti, non un timer stimato.
Più: più vibrazione coi flap in movimento.
Meno: corse dei flap più discrete.
Perché qui: Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.
Autopilot follow
AP follow authority100%
Quanto i comandi dell'autopilota possono muovere fisicamente la barra. Tenuto minuscolo in MSFS, dove un asse mosso può essere riletto come ingresso del pilota; zero disattiva del tutto il seguito.
Più: l'autopilota muove visibilmente di più la tua barra.
Meno: un seguito appena percettibile.
Perché qui: Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.

Chiacchiere da hangar

Thanks, and your PMDG issue is fixed (I think), I'm emailing you a new build to test shortly.
Will check out that video and also use the report an issue button. Didn't want to do that before I asked about it in here, thinking it might be an already known issue or something I did wrong on my side.
Thanks for the great feedback. You might be interested in this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOSg0tKhfr4 to help you really nail down the tuning :) And that PMDG thing seems like a bug. It should go away. hit the rep…
