    I build my FS9 flightplans via fsbuild and use gatekeeper to position the aircraft at the proper location (gate etc) when I enter FS9 and load the flightplan. Usually everything works fine. However, I just installed Shez's KLGB (long Beach ver 4) and while I see the gates, parking spots in gatekeeper, when I run FS9, load the flighplan with the parking spot identified (eg, gate 8), it ends up placing me mid-field on the runway. KLGB was installed correctly into my addon folder and activated in the scenery settings. I also tried moving the AFCAD (AF2.xxx.bgl) file to the addon scenery folder (like I do with all my airport addons) and it still positions me mid-field.…

  4. Does anyone know of any new/upcoming scenery for Rome Ciampino and Madeira airports? I have the very old scenery of these airports made by Cloud9 and Aerosoft but ever since I upgraded my computer 2 years ago I never installed these sceneries on the new computer. Now I am thinking about reinstalling them, but I don't really want to if new scenery for these airports will be made.

  6. I've been away from FS for a few years and thought I'd get back in. I have a new Dell XPS (i7-3770) running Win 8 (64bit). I thought I'd start back with FS9 as I was familiar with this system. I installed FS9 on a SSD and everything seems to work OK, except that when I go to Create a Flight, the Airplane display box is black. Any ideas? Thanks, Jim Driskell

    Is anyone using VASFMC? I've been trying to master it with FS9 for sometime but have an on-going problem with speed control. I've followed the standard tutorial but find during every take off that the aircraft speed keeps on increasing and resulting in the aircraft accelerating to > 300 knots triggering the overspeed warning before I've reached 3000 ft! I've got A / THR Mode set to VASFMC and Airbus A / THR set to yes in the settings. Have I missed something else? to add to the frustrations I now have a new problem. In the standalone version both the PFD & ND displays are lost when FS9 becomes active. The image in both windows is replaced with "ATT" in r…

  10. This is my first post here, though I have been very deep into FS9 for many years, and usually get help with any issue just by scanning the forums, without need for posting myself, but I haven't seen anything here today about this, soooooo, here goes. I have FS9 on two completely separate XP machines (one in my home office, one on a "purpose-built machine for just FS), and since about two days ago, the real-world weather has been "stuck in time". I've followed all the usual recommendations...I have emptied the temp-internet folders, cleared the internet cache of files and cookies, looked to see if I can access the weather website (fs2k.zone, I can), switched on and off r…

    Hi folks, Is there a way to increase the radius of UT night lighting around your aircraft? I finally tried it out last night using the MD-11 from KLAX to KLAS. Very impressive, especially when I was doing my final in to KLAS. Would be nice to have more lights in the distance when flying higher up.

  14. Hello, I am having problems with my Saitek throttle quadrants ; the throttle levers are not synchronised at the same positions. For Example, I could have them In the exact same position (physically) on the quadrant, but on the simulator I get different output, It may only be 3-4% of a difference in throttle but asymmetrical thrust Is actually quite a problem in the simulator. The two throttle levers that aren't synchronised are both on the same quadrant which makes it even more strange. I have FSUIPC installed and I have tried mapping the throttle controls into there to see if It makes a difference, but it remains the same. If someone has a workaround for this in FSUI…

    I just did my 4th flight with g3d.dll crashes. 3 of them crashed when establishing 4000-5000 feet before capturing LOC . The other one crashed when I looked outside the left window which exactly where Frankfurt Airport is located. Those flights were supposed to land on rwy 07L, from Aerosoft Arlanda using Leonardo Maddog. I tried everything I found from the internet. The only things I havent done are eliminating addon one by one and reformatting my OS (re installing FS9), I simply have no time. The last time I did that, my 'co pilot' was extremely unhappy I read on FSX forum that Pete Dawson's new module seems to be the cure for g3d.dll, but it was not for FS9. …

    Hi folks, I have downloaded the Swedflight Pro Pack3 (ESNN, ESNU and ESPA) which is now freeware. However, there seem to be no AFCAD files available anymore. I am sure that there were some released as a separate download (when Swedflight was up and running still) but the only one I can find now is for ESNU. If anyone has AFCAD files for the other two (ie ESNN and ESPA) and is able to send them to me, please contact me by PM for an email address. Thanks! Geoff

    Hey everybody, The main qualm I have with FS9 aircraft is that the gauges in the cockpit move in a jerky motion. In addition, they only move whenever I push my yoke a certain distance. In fsX, say the RealAir turbine duke, every movement I make on my yoke is immediately shown on the AI, Airspeed etc. I hate "guessing" how much I moved the aircraft and would much rather it show on the gauges themselves. Is there a way to fix this and/or a good turboprop aircraft that has smooth gauges? I love the PMDG Beech 1900 but again, it suffers from the lack of smooth gauges. Thanks

Does anybody please know how I can get the horizon level across the three screens? I am using undocked views for right and left, and the horizon is much lower than the center cockpit view, but I can't find a way of raising the horizon level on right and left screen. I can raise the aircrafts window frame etc, but not raise the outside scenery. If I hit full screen it all turns very pear shaped, and I cannot get back to my menus to shut down and have to do alt ctl del to get out of it. Any suggestions gratefully receiv…

Or is there a problem in the merge? I did change joystick at the ground and I set the simulation speed at 4X while taxiing(so both on the ground). Maby that has something to do with it. Hope someone can help me! Greetings Luuk
