Does anyone have an accurate climb, descent rate and approach speed profile to feed in PF3 preset for PMDG 777-200LR, 777-300ER and 737-800NGX?

Best wishes

I suggest googling that info because so many people have various suggestions on weight and climb outs and what's best for your aircraft.
Their are websites out there...Avsim, Flightsim to name some..and try Boeing's official website for specs.

For climb/descent rate check Appendix A (Aircraft Information Fixed-Wing Aircraft) of the FAA "Air Traffic Control" document (7110.65):

Thanks a lot everybody.
The information is so variable on google there is no simple answer to it. I wanted to check what everybody on this forum puts in PF3 to have smooth climb and descent instructions. I use 2000 for climb and descent rate and 160Kt as approach speed ( 160Kt to 4DME is what many airports advise) for all these aircrafts. Am I doing anything wrong?

Well, Ash, whatever works for you is right. It really doesn't matter what others do. I'm sure most would laugh at the way my flights are handled these days, but it works for me, so that's good enough! ;)
