    For anyone who is keen to add an additional Irish airport to their setup, Eiresim have just released the first payware version of this airport. EIKY is a small regional airport in Co. Kerry and was formally known as Farranfore after the small village near where it is situated. Aer Lingus Regional operate twice daily ATR-72 flights from Dublin but Ryanair is the biggest user with flights to Stansted, Luton, Hahn, Faro and Alicante. The county of Kerry is itself a major Irish tourist destination, with wonderful, mountain. lake and ocean scenery which is replicated quite well in Orbx FTX Ireland and certainly makes for a few pleasant hours of VFR sightseeing flights.

  2. I have Saitek radio and Multi panel, and although the radio frequencies scroll and change on my Wilco CRJ Nextgen, the radio panel causes the actual radio in the plane to freeze up after a few minutes and the multi panel doesn't even work. Is there a fix for this? Can anyone confirm what payware aircraft they have and that these panels both work no problem? Preferably jets like eaglesoft citation, pmdg, etc.

  3. Okay guys, So i am stuck in a big dilemma that has been on my mind for a while now. The question being, should i run FPS locked at 30 in the sim, or lock it with NI at 30 and set FPS to unlimited in the sim... Here is the dilemna FPS unlimited - I get better FPS with it set to unlimited, but i find i get more stutters and also blurry scenery with unlimited FPS, but i get more frame rates, and it makes flying into ORBX Brisbane do able, and also having good fps is enjoyable... But again i am getting the blurries and stutters FPS Locked - It seems with it locked in the sim i dont get as many blurries and also the stutters go away. But i dont get as many FPS loc…

    I have trackir 5, not the pro clip. When I try using it, I cannot see my gauges very well because the centre is too high. I would have to zoom out to about 0.4 to have the gauges reasonably shown, but then it is too tough for my eyes to see. I cannot look down far enough also because then the track clip losing signla as well. Also would the track clip pro help more for this.

  9. Hi; I am looking to purchase the Aerosim 474 and was wondering if anyone has purchase any of their product and the impact to FPS.

    Hello, recently I been experiencing this error. I haven't touched FSX for a month and once I came back from holidays OpusFSX refused to work. Before that, I have never experienced a trouble from OpusFSX in almost two years of using it. I read various topics/FAQs I found on the Internet, tried some thins (obviously I could have missed something as well), yet nothing seems to work. Additional info: Internet connection - for the past 1,5 I'm using university Internet, meaning I have proxy setup. Before this week it never troubled OpusFSX to download its weather. All other programs (Internet browsers, Windows Update, FSX own RL weather, Steam, etc.) work fine. Fid…

    I just downloaded the paint kit for my AeroSim FSX 747, and as with all the other painkits, it asks for a password from the product manual, in this case page 27. I've successfully done this in the past for the AeroSim 777 when installing that paintkit, but there is no password described on P27 of either of the B747 manuals, so, does anyone know what the password is, or where I can find it? Is it even in the manual?Al

    For those of you who use SweetFX an experience crash when going through the menu or when creating a flight plan or using any Menu option, this is a simple solution that i did to solve those crash . First of all if anyone has there GPU Overclock i suggest you guys revert it to default setting. I discover that my crashes with sweetfx was due to my GPU being overclock with high temperatures. I never really thought that was the problem , but ever since i reverted my GPU to its factory setting with no OC the crashes with sweetfx has stop for good. I have been using sweetfx for several months now an no crashes. I go through the menu option all the time even minimize the scree…

  15. I've been thinking about how things continue to get better across FSX/P3D lately. The better devs are adding some really nice stuff and I thought it'd be good to list what I like and see what others are thinking about. Perhaps some of the devs might want to think about adding them to other airplanes and get a feel for what the community likes. Here's my favorites... FDEs getting better. A bird told me that we'll be seeing more improvements in the light aircraft. Be nice to see better behaving turboprops and mixture fixes, right? A2A's throttle handling on the C172 continues to impress me. Saved state. A2A did a great job of this on the C172. Not just the wear an…

  17. I am looking to fly the Dash 8-300 and especially the Dash 8-200 to a couple of fields where the -400 is too large. What is the best Dash 8-300 and -200 for FSX? In FS9 I used a merge of the PSS panel with the Dreamwings exterior model. What's the best solution for FSX? No payware that I am aware of? Dreamwings will probably work in FSX, but what panel to use? Thanks! Chris

    Hello all, I have had stutters with all the updates (including the new v.1.011) and after trying adding affinity mask entries, I have finally seemed to have found the culprit. The moment I unload OpusFSX, the Q400 runs smooth as silk. I though it may have been OpusFSX's weather engine but no. As long as Opus runs with the Q400, I will get terrible stutters. ​So the easy solution is not to run Opus but it is an integral part of simming for me. Anyone else have this problem?

    In October, my Wife and I are traveling from New York to Viet Nam. I'm an office equipment dealer/owner, and this year's dealer trip (if you qualify...and we did) is to Viet Nam and Cambodia. I've heard that this is now one of the world's most phenomenal new "destinations". I would never have believed it, if I didn't research it. However, it looks like the best flight is from JFK on Korean Airlines to Seoul (Incheon), and from there to Hanoi. Flight time looks like about 19 hours (whew!). Korean Air is flying the Airbus A-380, and I'm going to book Business Class Seats for my Wife and me. After a few days there, we will be flying to Cambodia, and in a few more d…
