Was really hoping the above would be working.
Is the pressurization working properly on your model? I may not even install this update. User tweaks and performance tables found on the internet work OK with this plane.
CS installers are like rolling the dice every time. Run as Admin, AV off, Reg clean, all the usual's, still a crap shoot. Possibly my original installer won't work again if 1.6 fails. I had to pull teeth to get this thing working with the last version. Too paranoid to delete what I have.
Not really all that disappointed though. I've lower the bar and my expectations considerably for this company. I wasn't excepting much from CS in the first place.

Mine has not crashed at all when programming the PDCS (in FSX, FSX-SE and P3Dv2), and I do not get the spooling up sound in FSX either. I do get a sound in the 737 in both FSX-SE and P3Dv2, but not all the time. It doesn't sound like the engines or the APU spooling up. Undecided

If you like to try 1.6 but you are worried about your modes, liveries etc., you can do the following:
1) rename /FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes/CS_B737-200/aircraft.cfg, e.g  _v1000__aircraft.cfg
2) rename /FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes/CS_B737-200 folder, e.g  _v1000__CS_B737-200
3) run csp732_1600.exe, install and try v.1.6.

If you didn't like v.1.6 and decide to go back to v.1.0
1) Uninstall v.1.6 ( Control Panel -> Uninstall a program -> 737 Captain (737-200) 1.60 FSX)
2) run csp732_1000.exe and install (it will work)
3) delete /FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes/CS_B737-200 folder
4) rename  _v1000__CS_B737-200 back to CS_B737-200
5) rename _v1000__aircraft.cfg back to aircraft.cfg

At this point you will have your v.1.0 version with all your modes and liveries.

Well, thank you CS. Quite a contrast to the customer support of old- reaching out personally to a concern with a potential solution, rather than referring customers to an irrelevant knowledge base item and leaving it at that. Is there someone new within the organization who may have re-thought your customer service approach? Not my imagination- this would have never happened a couple years ago. This is the kind of support I get from just about every other developer I do business with. Better late than never as they say. Keep up with this type of approach. Although it's a little more tedious, and you have to keep answering the same questions over and over again until it drives you nuts, it's all part of the job. Although customer problems are redundant to you, they're not to the person who is experiencing the issue. No matter how many times a question has been answered, I always receive a personal note from the develop for a solution, not just a canned response.  Reaching out to your customers in this manner will pay dividends very soon.  You guys have some catching up to do to in putting out fires and gaining a positive public perception. This is a great start and good to see.
Yes, I'll give your solution a try.

Best,
Brian
