I'm a new X-Planer, and I've been having a lot of fun flying various aircraft from Spitfires to 747's to and from Vancouver International Airport. I'm now able to land more or less safely most of the time (depending on the aircraft), but I often have trouble stopping the aircraft after landing....

I haven't gotten the hang of using the GPS unit so far in FS9. My problem is I set up a flight plan and it gets loaded in the GPS unit and I take off and ATC directs me, etc and everything is fine. In route I find the active runway that I will be landing at. How do I get the localizer info then...

I'm fishing for ideas. I want to make a low cost multiple display airport vehicle simulator to drive around an airport. Good scenery and visual presentation are more important than vehicle dynamics. My first thought is to get a sim like STI vehicle simulator and build or have them build my airport....

Hi, running MS FS 2004 on multiple screens is cool. However, I was not able to figure out how I can save a configuration for this. I always have to reopen the extra windows when I restart FS 2004. Is there no chance to save (multiple) configurations for this so I can start with my last setup...

Has anyone tried this Elite Pilot V8.0 yet?? I have IP Training 7 and On Top 8.0 but it's not really impress me at all.. THANKS

Will some one write some new flight sim software so I can go out and spend a ridulous amount of money to upgrade my 2.8 Ghz computer in order to run it. There is no incentive now to upgrade as my present box runs everything to my satisfaction. Remember the good ole days of software-hardware...

I keep failing in the same place: in the second segment of the flight where I have to lend at S43, after the lending the examinator says "breached at least two tolerances: did not set manifold preasure to 15" for descent and did not extend gear for landing", which is complete bullox: - the gear is...

Hi all. Just got this on Amazon for $27.00! wow great looking game! But surely there must be a way to use it without having disc 4 in the drive? The instx dont mention a way of course. Is there a patch that someone can point me to that works easily, as Im a computer hack.

I'm getting back to flt sim after a few years and I'm looking for a basic joystick, something similar to the old MS Sidewinder. I do not want force feedback. 1) I assume the above mentioned Logitech is a reasonable choice. Right? 2) I'm running XP Home. Is there software to install with this...

in 1970 national geographic had a computer issue (forget which month) that showed a flight simulator with graphics that looked pretty advanced for those days. does anyone know what system that was, and if it has been emulated?

Dear flight sim enthusiasts! I just bought a brand new CH yoke with rudder pedals few days ago. It's well done (for the price) and adds a new dimension to the game. However the big problem with the yoke is that i can't calibrate it properly. The result is that i'm fighting all the time with...
