Now that I've got the DC-9 panel into the MD-80 I've spent quite a bit of time loking at it and I can't find the EFIS power switch anywhere. Can someone point me in the right direction please.Andrew Luck18 miles SW EGSH

just wondering if someone would be willing to do a repaint of the 737 in the usair colors???? please! thanks!

hey everyone!!!i would like to ask everyone's opinion on the PMDG 777, and 757....i would like to know what the people who have these two planes are, and what they like most about them!!!i just got my new computer and got fly!II reinstalled and working wonderfully, so i was wanting to know which one i should buy, but i wanted to know what others who had them thought of the aircraft. i really love the 777, big, and advanced, but i like the 757 cuz it can get into smaller airports and so on....so please feel free to share your opinion on the two, or others which you might sugest! thanks for all the comments!!!p.s. did anyone have any problems with either one of the aircraft…

Hi all,I've created and uploaded a DLL that will map the Mixture axes to the PCLS of the Pilatus PC-XII, the Socata TBM 700, the Aurora B200, and the Barracuda B200. This version only supports a static configuration, but will at least, get everyone going. Except a dynamically configurable version in the days...hmmm, err...probably weeks...to come. For now though, enjoy!Cheers, Tony

I want to add a few eye candy items but this is basically done. I'll wait to get permission from PMDG before posting and baring any unforseen circumstances I shoul have it up on the server by this time tomorrow.Now off to tackle some more 737's!Pete

Dear Pete,I uploaded the B737 V2.0, but like I said you, you must edit your previous repaints for this updated version again!!Anyway, this is the updated version you asked me.I wait to see your beautiful next works!A dear [email protected]

Hi all!I've uploaded a much improved version 1.1 of the Advanced Logbook. This one is chock full of features including multiple logbook support, better flight recognition, Fly! II internal logbook viewing and more. It slices! It dices! It even makes julienne fries! Well, ok. Maybe not. Anyway, have a go at it, and let me know how it goes. Hopefully, we'll get everyone up and running on it with less bother this time around.Cheers, Tony

I would love to try to factor more realistic winds aloft for my flights since the METAR info does not really account for anything but ground winds.Thanks.Chris Catalano

KFFAFirst Flight Airport, Kill Devil Hill (Kitty Hawk), North Carolina.This was where the Wright Brothers first achieved powered flight. The paved strip was obviously added later. Too bad it's not in the Fly database. I flew in there about a month ago and managed a few photos in the haze. The runway is lined with 40' trees, which makes for a handfull in windy situations. It was docile for me.http://www.nonmusic.com/FlyII/KFFA_final20.jpghttp://www.nonmusic.com/FlyII/circling_monument.jpghttp://www.nonmusic.com/FlyII/nags_head_1000.jpg-----------------------Scott CannizzaroPPASEL-KTEB

Inspired by Randall I had to grab the PMDG Greek scenery :)I took the Warrior for a trip from LGAV to LGAT.Here are the pics in the screenshots forum :)http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/DCForumID47/8165.htmlJohnny"I'LL BE BACK"[div align=center]http://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/josve/fly2/vas.gif][/div

I've just done up the olive Soutwest 737. As you can see the rudder texture mapping is the main issue with doing liveries like this. I'll release this as is if anyone wants it.Pete

First cut on this repaint. After I complete this repaint I'll seek PMDG's blessing and all the required documents, then post it if it's meets their quality control.Pete

Hi Giorgio,.............I'm just letting you know that I have attempted to send you several emails, but they have been returned stating that your email quota box is full.Regards John

Hi all,I can't get the PCL to map to any of my yoke's levers. Has anyone successfully done this or are the PCLS simply not mappable?Cheers, Tony

I have just uploaded a Colorado Adventure No. 1 Flight Plan to the FlyII Scenery Directory. The flight takes you through the mountains between Grandby and Denver.My first attempt at this and if you want more let me know. This may be a good thing and then maybe no one cares.All comments are appreciated. Good or bad.

I did some research on the use of Fly!II. Here are my findings.DownloadsFeature update # 4 is an update that every user needs, whether he has the American version or the European version. The number of downloads of this update is 21.049.So if everybody has updated his sim, there are at least 21.000 people who bought Fly!IIFeature update # 1 was only for the American version (or European downloaders) and the number of downloads of this update is 10.370.Also an update that everybody should need is the update to version 230. However this update was downloaded not more than 7.948 times. Although it is not available for Macs, I cannot imagine that there are so many of them.AVS…

First there was only...runways and one land type.After 4 hours work with Colin`s Terrashape and a CAD program...I had all roads & rail corrected, waters, farmlands and missing cities rendered in. A few Terrascene sessions later I had it almost right. Just a few touchups needed in my paint program, taking 30 minutes now, not a week.Want detailed Euro scenery made quicker ? Use Terrashape and a good map !Pic is Gardermoen (ENGM), Terrashaped & Terrascened with my crude old beta airport scenery :)This Terrascenery is made for Roy`s upcoming Airport scenery.

Flew into LSPM yesterday (Ambri). I love this approach - very difficult. But, I noted that runway lights didn't come on. How does one get the lights on? It made the approach a bit more challenging!Also, as I was parking the plane (see second shot) and "crashed" into an invisible object. Thought I should point that out. How does one correct this?-DK----David KohlFly! II v230Dell 8200 P4/1.8G, 1024MB RAM, Nvidia GF4 Ti4600 v29.42, WinXP Home Edition.CH Pro Pedals and Yoke USB.

A technical friend of mine, seeing my "winrun.cpp" errors (I get them just about 1 in every two or three times I fly) suggested that I try running Fly!2 in Windows ME compatibility mode. I tried it tonight using the B777 (PMDG) on a flight between KDEN and KSLC. I also used C4TO.The above "formula" almost always creates a WINRUN.CPP error (flying with the 777, C4TO and scenery with lots of TM's).To my surprise ;) I got no errors - landed without incident!Its too soon for me to tell, but figured I'd pass along the suggestion. Anyone else with these errors - please see a related post] and contribute your suggestions. I'll, of course, keep you all posted as I try this techni…

I've assigned the vertical trim to my steering wheel but the range of movement is somehow restricted from "full down" trim to "neutral" Is there a way to use an analog controller to move the control all the way. Thanks

I need help with the flyscripts for FLY!II. I have done everything correctly but they still do not work. If anyone can help me please do so.
