The FLY General Discussion Forum

as we have announced after our "congress" in last december, we had decided to translate all the simvol site in english. It's a very hard task and a group of bi-linguist flyers works to help us (thanks Jan-Paul,Michel(2), Franck, Jean-Marie, Roman).At this time we are over the middle of this project.A great numbers of pages are translated and offer to you the possibility to download add-ons which have never uploaded on other sites.Direct access to english site at this address: http://fly.simvol.org/indexus.htmHow to know if the page is translated: there is a dot at the end of its name on the left index frame.Exemple in this pic:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/75773.jpgE…

Hi Guys,I know this question may appear to be a bit stupid..... (I....probably am!).............but I'm trying to understand aircraft proticol and systems.Can someone explain to me the difference between the COURSE display and the HEADING display on aircraft glare panels.??????On the DC9 panel (for example) .......although I can change the COURSE digits on the Glare Panel, I don't quite understand how this relates to any aircraft system???When I change the HEADING digits the aircraft responds and changes direction. Could someone please explain to me what the function of these COURSE digits are and how they should be used to aid navigation. I hope you understand what I me…

G'day Alejandro,Have done some testing about what Pascal said re RMI's.Yes you are correct. The pilatus RMI will work backwards IF THE PILATUS IS THE DEFAULT STARTUP AIRCRAFT. ( there may be other offending aircraft ) What's more this bug is then passed on to ALL subsequent aircraft changes! The default aircraft must set certain parameters (eg DOR of pbg's or more specically the compass card of the RMI) for all aircraft that follow. Even the Cessna 172 DG card worked backwards.However if either the Flyhawk or Kodiak is the default starup aircraft, (and possibly many others - I only tested these two; unfortuately due to exceeding 55 aircraft I was unable to test the TBM70…

If you use Barts Katana and my airfield-scenery FlyII crashes as soon as FLY!! tries to load my static Katana-model, because we both use a file named KATANA.RAW. On my PC this happens also if you the Katana in your AIRCRAFT-Directory, but use an other aircraft.Harald

Hello: Is this just me or did TRI goof up the name of the plane they call it a 172sp flyhawk but in real like its known as the 172 sp SKYHAWK what gives?Paul

I've been tweaking the engine file and, when testing, I noticed that the Saab can pullback very nicely in Reverse throttle. Can someone tell me if the original saab is able to as well? thanks.tony

after a crash to the desktop?I am still puzzled as to why occasionally FLY2 will crash to the desktop unexpectedly. When I try to restart FLY2, I get the "can't find valid video mode" error. The only clue that there's a video mode missing after FLY2 has crashed is that when I click the right mouse button on the desktop to access the "properties", all the text is grayed out.The only way to restore it is to reboot the computer. I've searched for clues on video drivers, video card related issues, WIn98 issues, and FLY2 issues. Yet, since it happens only with FLY2, I have not been able to make any progress. So far, these are my theories:1. FLY2 does not like Antialising2. FLY…

Thank you Gilles and Fred for this great (small, or even tiny) plane.I have to be honest and tell everybody, I had a little advance.Gilles and Fred gave me the opportunity to play with the tif beforethe release of the Corduan.Nevertheless it`s not ready yet , the final version was also a mistery to me.Here some shots.I hope it will be ready in a few weeks.Your FLYII!-friend,Leenhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/73835.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/73836.txthttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/73837.jpg
