Just-Flight are currently selling all RAZBAM products at 50% discount. I'd be interested to hear from users about Steam compatibility. I've searched for the information on their website but no luck. I'm especially interested in the Metroliner, A-7D/E and Harrier, though the Buckeye also looks pretty good... Thanks Ian

I am trying to get various Stars/Sids . I used to use Aeroplanner but don't seem to be able to bring up the program. Any suggestions?

Hi guys. I am having an issue with airport elevations being either below or above the surrounding terrain. This makes the airport either sit on a plateau or sit inside a hole. I believe this issue is caused by FSGlobal changing the elevation of the terrain surrounding the airport. FSGlobal provides and airport elevation fix tool in the for of an AFX demo, but I can't seem to work out exactly how to use it. I load up an airport and go to the properties page and simply change the elevation to match the surrounding terrain. However, all it does inside FSX is change the elevation of the runway and now the whole airport perimeter. Is there any way to raise t…

Flying out of my home airport (KABE) in Allentown, Pa., I noticed all the fall foliage starting again. Oh well, it was a nice spring and summer. Here comes the winter and the barren landscapes. Time moves on. Stan

Flying over the Gulf of Mexico today on a flight between Phoenix and Tampa, I found that their was no water texture for the Gulf. What was supposed to be water was land. What could the cause be? I use REX 4 Direct, GEX, UTX Canada v1.0 and UTX USA v2.0 My basic scenery structure reads like this...

Amazing Night Landing At Dallas Fort Worth, TX

1. On one cruise with 737-700 (cruise weight 56 tons) with light headwind (10kts), engines were keeping N1 around 86% at M0.77. On other cruise with 737-800 (cruise weight 60tons) and pretty strong tailwind around 45kts, N1 was at 88%, keeping M0.76 for economy cruise because of tailwind. It wasn't econ cruise at all. I'm still confused why that happened. As stated on Wikipedia, all three models have exaclty the same cruising thrust (5,480 lbf (24.38 kN)). It's logical that 737-800/900 will struggle more to keep cruising speeds. And on top of all engine buzz sound was there during the whole cruise, like it was on climb. Is it normal that in the real life 737 you'll he…

Hello everyone! I am thinking of buying a new payware add-on for FSX, and am interested in a Turboprop General Avaition plane. I was wondering what add-on you guys think is the most accurate for me to buy.I really want a plane that is perfect for routes of about 500 nm. I am strongly considering the Carenado TBM-850, but was wanting to make sure that I am making the right move. Thanks! -Josh M

Hello, Anybody could suggest a good sound for Mike Stone´s Cessna 404? Thanks!

Hello, When I turn off one of the Areas in scenery.cfg by just editing Active=FALSE line does FSX still read bgls in that area/location at loading? How is it different from completely removing [Area*] from scenery.cfg? And while at it: what is Required=FALSE/TRUE line for? Thanks, Dirk.

Hello, Guys! This is my same topic in another forum. Look at Flight Planner: I want to draw a very correct line towards every runway minimum 20nm away from it but you can see in picture that FlightPlanner's Window is too small to draw a big line like 20nm away from Runway. I can only draw 5 or 6nm away line from runway accurately. So, Window is small and I want big line. Can you please give me some idea to draw a big line for landing manually? Regards, AP,

Having uninstalled FSX-MS, cleaned the registry using CC Cleaner and even given the registry the once over manually as well, I am still faced with the problem that FTX Global wants to install into my FSX-MS directory and not FSX-SE. Do I need to rename the directory? It still has a few directories/files I want to keep until I have fully migrated to FSX-SE. Right now I have no FSX installed that really works and it looks like a fresh Windows install and start all over (not motivated to do that though)

I just received an email from Flightsimstore, informing me that the product has been released: - Hand crafted landclass for 12 million sq km. - Thousands of superb new textures. - Greatly reduced texture repetition! - Full five seasons support. - New 3D night lighting. - Made for FTX Global and Vector. - Accurate cities, towns, villages. - Each geographic area feels unique. - The second of seven Orbx "mega regions". - A vast beautiful area to explore!

Hi I've had to uininstall my aircraft in FSX, including the Skysim "Sea Vixen" . I'm now trying to reinstall the "Sea Vixen" but I've forgotten the registration code. Skysim are no longer in business but I do have the receipt for the boxed DVD from Skysim. Any suggestions how to deal with this registration code requirement? Ray

For the past couple of weeks I've noticed that once I land I no longer get the "turn at next taxiway message". I can hear the slight hesitation where it should be, it just isn't. All other ATC messages appear to work. including "contact gound" after exiting the runway. The message always annoyed me, so I can't say that I miss it, but its absence indicates does indicate something is broken. Thanks,. Ernie

When I programmed the FMS, is there a way to do a step-by-step walkthrough of the entered route, on the PFD?

Hi, updates about the release dates from Aerosoft forums from today, 2 Sept 2015: Aerosoft CRJ "It means we are 28 work days away from release (and we count with 7 work days a week). So if we have no unexpected issues Sept 30 it is. If you see 28 again tomorrow it means we hit an issue that needs an additional day!" http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/33966-aerosoft-da-crj-preview/&page=182 ----------------------------------------- Aerosoft Airbus A330 "I still plan with 2015 but I am not going to force the dev team. This is one of our biggest projects and it needs to be done right." http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/92340-a330-preview/…

I am only asking this in the forum because there is no unofficial forum and the main website is down. My question is am I able to use REX essentials Plus OD for water textures and use REX 4 texture direct for other textures at the same time? There are very few water textures in texture direct and there is no difference in inland water. My rivers look like coral from the ocean. Any suggestions?

I've been flying round the Pacific rim in my RealAir Duke V2, with added GTN 750, and all was going well ... until I did a leg from UHHH to ZYCC. Now I rarely "fly" out east but it came as a bit of a shock during my approach to find (or not) that the airfield wasn't where the GTN 750 said it was. In fact in FSX:SE it was about 25 miles west !!!! Have the Chinese moved the airfield since FSX was first compiled or is there a big typo somewhere ?

Would very much appreciate if anyone that has FSX steam only, could help me. I use to have DBS walk & Follow on FSX but cannot install on Steam is anyone out there they may have a solution or is there another program or anything you can use to walk around airports and planes without having to be in another sim object.

How does Opus camera and buttkicker distinguish between lite and heavy aircraft? I assume it is weight but where does it look for that info and what is the cutoff point? Thanks, gb.

Hello Stephen, It is a very good idea to give this information. we have also it on the Live Weather Assistant Map. (not mentionned) Thanks Regards Claude

Hello Is it possible to delete unused aircraft files from within FSX SE in order to save disk space?? Clive alexander

Have read on some forums, like Aerosoft, that a new ( or updated ) version of EDDF is in the make. But I believe others are doing the same. Has anyone any idea which companies are doing an new EDDF, as I would not like to buy a version and miss out on a better one.

Anyone knows where can i get this airplane? Thanks in advance
