Make sure you check the tick mark next to the PMDG FLIGHTPLAN and
PMDG WIND UPLINK entries.
Now follow these simple steps.

request.
Tips and Hints
Before you request WIND data for the PMDG 737 aircraft make sure your
PERF INIT page is complete and EXEC’ed. Furthermore, there must be a
valid FMC position available which in turn means that at least one IRS
unit is fully ALI|GN’ed and in the NAV position. The 737 FMC unlike other
Boeings will only read data for one defined cruise altitude and only cruise
waypoints. Hence the need to have PERF INIT complete and EXEC’ed
and an FMC position valid.
When you request descent forecast data for the first time (the relevant
CDU pages contain no data), wind data will be retrieved for a predefined
set of 3 altitudes and need to be EXEC’ed. You may subsequently
manually edit any or all of those predefined altitudes with values of your
choice. In the latter case you should post another DES FOREACT
request. The FMC will then automatically load wind data for your new
edited altitudes which you have to EXEC again.
In general be aware of the fact that unlike previous generations of FS,
forecasted data are generated by software that has no direct control over
the internal MSFS weather. Forecasted values may thus vary from actual
in sim weather. Fortunately the FMC just like its real world counterpart will
