Was wondering if anyone has created a Leo Maddog panel merge with either a SGA or JCA MD90? Anyone?

Why BB Airbus, both 320 and 330 are so pricey ? Are they really so much better to justify that price ? How is comparison of 320 made by BB and Aerosoft - which one is better ?

Hi all, I actually bought the F1 B200 at release, but took a refund due to some initial issues. I want to re-purchase now that the product is more mature, but have one question, that I didn't get as far as discovering, the first time around; The Flight 1 Mustang and T182 both have INI files that facilitate the use of Keyboard commands for the custom functions; things like the FL CH mode on the autopilot, for example, which doesn't have a standard FSX key assignment. Does the F1 B200 have this function ? Or if it doesn't have an INI, is there an alternative way of assigning custom keyboard commands (eg... FSUIPC Mouse Macros, LUA script, etc) ? Man…

I have just discovered a problem with my FSX. I have tried this with the Flight1 CT182T, Baytower RV-7, Carenado Baron B58, and the default C172. I'm assuming it will happen with the other planes too. I have the plane completely powered down but if I switch on the landing lights or panel lights they will turn on. The nav and beacon lights on some of the planes will also turn on too. I really am at a loss on where to start looking to track this down. I don't know if this is related but sometimes I will also hear ATC even though the airplane I'm flying is completely powered down. I have a lot of addons from planes to sceneries and the RealityXP Garmins but none are common t…

i just downloaded the freeware mauritius aiport. the problem is the airport is in the air

I have recently experienced some of the worst after sales service I have ever come across with two companies. Some of you may have read my posts regarding an MCP that went faulty on me after only 8 months. I can now report that I have just received a replacement unit... after returning it almost ten weeks ago. I don't wish to expand on my experience any further only to draw a line under the affair. I would like to publicly thank Flightstore, and in particular, Sarah, for taking ownership of my issue and sorting things out for me. However, I would draw everyone's attention to a company called Proviation and suggest if anyone is considering making any purchase from them tha…

I have the fsuipc and registered it but Widefs will not register because the key was from a previous download. Does this mean I have to repurchse fsuipc again?

I was visiting Mcphat Studios Facebook page this morning and they're offering never-seen-before PMDG 737-800 liveries for anyone who makes a donation for cancer research. Has anyone here got those liveries? Are they as good as the first free ones?

I was on approach and pretty near the ground and was sucked into the ground and crashed as seen in the recorded video below. Hoping to find a solution. Is this a terrain bug?

When I spawn my Airbus to a ramp at my airport, it is parked much too close to the terminal and the jetway is unable to maneuver into the forward door. The rear landing gear is at the top of the gate's parking line, where I assume the nosewheel should be. Is there a way to go about tweaking things to ensure that the aircraft parks at the correct spot at the gate?

Does anyone have this aircraft? I purchased,and downloaded the installer,and get a not connected to internet error. I have contacted Just Flight and black Box,and have received no response going on 17 days now. Getting ready to dispute this purchase to my credit card company real soon.

I don't know much about P3D but could somebody explain the differences between P3D and FSX? Is P3D like a newer version of FSX just called something different or is it a totally brand new flight simulator like all new coding and has no ties to FSX except for developers are making there products work on both?

I did not know there was a limit to the number of times one could install FSX. When I try to activate my Product Key I get a message that I have exceeded my number of installs. If I try to install the Acceleration Expansion it will not let me because I have not activated my FSX. I never thought a software would have a limit as to the number of installs. I know the price is far less than when I first purchased it but I don't want to buy another FSX. Any thoughts Richard Hill

Running FSX on Windows 7, GEX and UTX installed (latest updates), UT2, SP2 over an otherwise vanilla install. CH peddles, stick and yoke after yet again another reinstallation. Also Have FlusiFix 2006 v.5 installed. Made some adjustments to the sim through it. Upon getting everything in order, took my first flight during the day and wow...everything looked and ran beautifully! Finally. Be forewarned - this gets weird! Installed a freeware fix for the ugly ai gas globes in FSX roaming the skies. Came with a.bmp image and changed some configurations within the .cfg file. Okay, no big deal as I had everything backed up "just in case". Started at dusk with the sto…

I'm sure someone somewhere must have done this already, but I haven't come across it so I thought I'd give it a go. Using NotePad++ (a free download), I've set up a custom language definition for panel.cfg and aircraft.cfg files. All it does is automatically highlight keywords or headings or comments in different colours in an effort to improve the readability of such files when dealing with them as raw text. Examples are probably better than a description... I've been messing with this for the past hour before it occurred to me that surely I must be doubling up on existing work. Is there already something like this for FSX .cfg files? Is there a…

I use vroute to plan a route. where do I export the route to or what is the path to where FSX flightplans are saved? thanks Paul Got the path, thanks.

I am experiencing an issue with Taxi Signs HD sporadically showing up in my commercial add-on sceneries (FlyTampa Boston, for example). I've tried demoting HD signs to a lower scenery layer but it seems the only way I can keep them appearing in unwanted places is to disable them from the scenery library altogether which is not an appealing option. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a viable solution? Thanks, J

Hello FSX community! Since I've installed the up to date Nvidia "game ready" driver (WHQL 331.82) I am obviously experiencing a kind of sudden "afterburner" in my graphics pipeline. Nvidia mentions in its release notes (pdf): (quote:) Performance Boost Increases performance by up to 19% for GeForce 400/500/600/700 Series GPUs in several PC games when compared to the GeForce 327.23 WHQL drivers. (quote end) I am actually very grateful for this enhancement (hidden bottle neck removal?!), because it lowers my "need for speed" (and the therefore required step towards sim and hardware change) a lot... Probably you have noticed something similar? Greeti…

O.M.G.! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!I'm just about to take off from a magnificent taxi-rubber necking of the ships, boats, airport detail....WOW!Thank you to the whole development team. Unbelievable.......now to take off in the Bonanza and see what else blows me out of the pilot's seat.......wow......Mitch

Hi, I’m new to Flight Simming, but I’ve wanted to get involved since about 1990. Finally, after several flying lessons, I’ve decided to go for it. I have a high-spec computer arriving soon, and both X-Plane 10 and FSX Gold on order too. Question is, is FSX worth getting into for someone in my position? I’m no tech head, I’m not cracking that computer open ever, and I’m unfamilar with command prompts et al. For a newbie like me, would X-Plane give me the experience of FSX with the add ons? I don’t mind laying out some money, I want to avoid software clashes, bugs, errors and programming!!! I have definate ideas about what I want to do with my sim.

As per request of Raymar who is a mate of owner John Urquhart. ZS-KHA (ex N4943M) was built in 1978, spent it's first year in Wichita Kansas before emigrating to Lanseria, South Africa (FALA) north west of Johannesburg in February 1979. It was repainted in .......don't know! Very pretty though. :smile: We've all seen this picture before: Now my bit: n.b. the blue in the screen shots is lighter than the finished article. I just couldn't be arsed to go take more screenies. :rolleyes: Uploaded to AVSIM @ 20.25 GMT 18/11/13

I just downloaded the V3 from avsim. Copied all the directories according to the PDF but my problem is I don't Gauges in the virtual cockpit. I have also installed VasFMC plugin but the gauges were not showing up before that. is anyone using this bird ? Do they have gauges showing up. BTW I HAVE UPDATED MY GPU DRIVERS TO 331.82 (this is the laptop GPU GT525M). In fact the gauges have also disappeared in my A380. And VasFMC works. Thanks.

Just curious on how many of us are holding off any additional investment into FSX or FS9 and waiting on the new LM Prepar3d 2.0, which from the last I heard is supposed to be due later this year. +1 -Ray

First of all thank you realair for delivering this beautiful version of the Duke v2. What I like most about it, unlike most other developers, the products performs right on par out of the gate. No tweeking or complaining about this or that. You get it!!!!!!!! Most developers, are in such a hurry to get a product out, that within the first few days of release, bugs are coming from all over, and before you know it, everybody is requesting a patch update. The great thing about realair and its important to me, its like taking a car out of the showroom, and knowing with great satisfaction the vehicle will perform as advertised. You guys get it right for t…

I started getting this message out of nowhere. can some explain how can i fix this? My FSX: -is not loading flight plans from REX 2.0; -is not getting replies from atc after reading back flight plan clearance; -is not showing the correct map on flightplanner (central europe showing up instead central usa) need some serious help.... regards, Rodrigo
