    Hope I'm not breaking any of the rules by posting the link below, however NLS are running a poll to see if they should make their A380 for FS9. You can find it via AirdailyX http://www.airdailyx.net/fsnewsbreaker/ Surely worth a vote even if there's the slimmest chance it's ever produced!

    First of all I have tried to contact the panel creator and the person that updated the panel, with no response, etc. I am using the Project Airbus A-380 with a 2D panel by Ken Mitchel and updated by Wilhelm Hudetz. The issue is with the Heading (HDG) knob on the Autopilot Control Panel (on main and zoomed panels). It is a clickable knob and when mouse if hovering over it you do get the + and - signs show up but remains at 044 degrees. Could some kind soul assist me with this as I do not have the facilities to alter XML or bitmaps. I note that the downloads a380wspnl.zip and a380wsupd01.zip have both beem downloaded several thousand times respectively so someon…

  4. I started to load fs2004 from scratch. Some disc 3 scenery files will not load; i.e HP919090.bgl, HP920060.bgl, and HP919060.bgl. These files hung up and did not load except for .9090 and 9060 only after 10 or so tries; once I got to 920060.bgl I tried 25 times to "Retry" and it just would not load or copy to C drive....?????

  8. I got the carenado c90b for fs2004 and the trim wheel indicator was misaligned if there is a fix somewhere you know of please tell me, but anyways I went into the texture folder and fixed the problem texture with gimp and saved it in the same bmp format as the origonal using DTXbmp but when I load the plane the textures in that were in that bitmap are very blurred, is there something I did wrong because I have repainted a whole plane before and did not encounter this issue.

  12. Hi, just a question: I'm looking for either an AI model or a light flyable model of the Robinson R22 and R44 helicopters each with a handful of repaints to replace my old Just Flight Traffic 2005 models. I have so far replaced all of these models with exception of these two helicopters; commercial air traffic for long now by AIA/DJC and later FAIB models and GA traffic by either AI models or simple flyable models. A point to where to get a simple R22 and/or R44 would be fine, testing it under AI conditions would be my turn. So far I only found the R22 for FS2002 by Gilles Arlove - it would be worth a test, but unfortunately there are no repaints (I need three or four …

  13. Hi guys, hope your having a good weekend. I downloaded the PA A380 to do a flight between SIN-NRT with the Singapore Airlines livery, but when I go to change the fuel it still says 100% and still says my aircraft is overweight, I also can't change all of my fuel because I keep getting an error message because of numbering (see screenshot) the fuel just will not budge at all,I don't want to fly with 100% fuel tank! It's really pissing me of P.S I use http://fuelplanner.com/ for my fuel.

    I was always thinking how to fix this, I really love the Airbuses by CLS, but the only minuses they have, is the touchdown effect, you know that the A330 and A340-200/300 on touchdown, sort of touches twice, first the rear wheels and than the aft ones of the main landing gear, the CLS models has the smoke effect only on the rear ones and than the aft ones touch the runway, but with no reaction, my question is, is it possible to add that effect to the aft wheels too ?

    Hello all. I've been lost in a couple of WW2 books recently & rather fancy buying a Lancaster to add to my hangar. There seem to be two payware available but it's difficult to decide which is best from the rather sketchy info available. Hopefully the Lanc isn't popular enough to start a squabble so if anyone here has experience of both, or either of, the JustFlight and the First Class Simulations offerings, can you summarize the differences between them? I'm not so fussed about having dozens of paintjobs but good sound, working VC, a decent airfile and lots of detail to look at are probably most important to me. Thanks very much. Dave

    Im looking for a PC12, I am a huge fan of the pilatus product. I noticed that flight 1 has one which looks very nice however I also noticed that there is one here on avsim. I beleive its made by AFG(allied flight group i think). Im just curious as to wheter the freeware pc12 compares to the payware. I would like to get the PC12 from flight one as I praise flight 1, I never had a problem, never had a bad product come from their site, and they are very easy to deal with. But the problem is that for a PC12 I would rater get one freeware instead of payware but I want a somewhat good PC12.Any comments

I'm getting around 3-4 frames when on the ground with payware scenery combined with PMDG 737. I know that previously I had a system with much less specification yet it ran at approximately 20 frames a second with exactly the same settings. Just wondering if anybody knows the answer?

    I thought I would try to flatten the water around T. Kwong's VHHH. The airport is really nice, but sits on a large rectangle, so you get a 19' wall of water around large parts of the airport - very visible as you approach from the west. I am assuming that this is not just my setup? I have had the scenery for a long time, so don't remember how I installed it, but I am pretty sure I did it according to the instructions. If others don't have this wall of water, please let me know! I have the flatten line in the scenery.cfg file - though if I remove it, I don't see any difference! I tried creating a flatten with FST flatten - I think this still works in Windows 7 - th…
