long pauses on departure

That's just confirm the fact that what you are experiencing is simply too much addons, too high settings (and the combination of them), too much memory allocated, and Windows trying to recover it in order not to crash, possibly using the swap file, which of course will result in slowdowns.

So since this pause only occurs at the same position over the fsdt runways... I'm wondering what the scenery or Add on Manager is doing that triggers this? And can this be adjusted?

The Addon Mananger doesn't have anything to do with this, especially if you set the anti-pop setting to the maximum value, which means *everything* will be loaded when you are 16NM from the airport, and nothing will be loaded/unloaded anymore. With the anti-pop up on its minimum value, the largest objects will still be loaded at 16 NM ( in case of KDFW ), but the smaller objects will have smaller ranges.
However, even at the minimum settings, the usual effect are *slight* pauses of 0.1/0.5 seconds at most, nobody ever reported a 10 or even 30 seconds pause, ever.
At the maximum setting, you can safely discount anything related in any way to the Addon Manager. Of course, you'll have a somewhat larger pause (by "large" I mean 3-4 seconds) AT *exactly* 16.0 NM out, but that's to be expected.

Additional info. Did a windows reinstall followed by FSX/Acceleration, UT2, & FSDT scenery. Same effect. Only seems to occur with the PMDG NGX and not the MD11?

At least this would safely discount the scenery being a problem.
