Just wondering if it is possible to manually load multiple waypoints (so as to create a full flight plan) in the KLN90B used in the F1 Pilatus PC12? I don't use the default ATC (I use radar contact v4 and FSBuild2) and as such I never have any need to go into the default flight planner. I know how to use the real KLN90B so I thought I'd be able to figure it out, but I failed. The only thing I can seem to do is a single GPS Direct waypoint. At this point it's looking like the only way to enter a full flight plan might be to load it in the default FS9 flight planner.

Can anyone give me the way to remove the interior cockpit views from the default FS aircraft?

Do you need to leave GE Pro running while flying your flight? After I've used GE Pro in conjunction with Active Sky to load my textures for the flight, is there any reason that GE Pro can't just be closed down (to free up memory and improve performance)? It doesn't actively do any texture switching while you're flying does it?

Hallo :)Did a flight in the Posky 737-800 V4 and only just noticed something as the autopilot performed a turn onto a new heading after arrival at a waypoint. The turn was nice and slow......*very* gentle wing-drop, slow arc around to the new heading then a slow and smooth wing level-off - just the way it is in real-life :)Im sure many of you have got flight sim airliners that turn like F-16s. Had a look at the Posky aircraft.cfg but couldnt figure out what entries enabled this behavior!How did they do it! Would sure like to tweak my other planes to turn like that! Dont know about the rest of you but my 50North 737s think they are Sukhoi-27s in disguise....Looking forward…

After a 4 yr absence, I wanted to know if there was a place to sign up/join a voice communication(s)group. I remember I recieved help, and enjoyed the group enviroment and most of all learned lots from the voice communication(s) Forum. The reason I ask is that I have sinced moved and for my own fault, let this great hobby take a back seat. Thus, I lost the note pages with the web sites and various groups ect..I realize now that FSX is out there and I am well, way behind. I do however hope there is still the chance to get me and my new pc (by the way the pc from 4 yrs ago is no longer with me, a bad drop in the move) up to speed with some folks from FS9 (w/ voice commun…

Hello,I was wondering if it wasn't too much trouble if someone did the Southwest Canyon Blue and Shamu Tan Liveries for the 50N 737-300/500. I have included some pictures:Here is the 300:http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0863633/L/ The 500:http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1225936/M/And maybe a Shamu Tan in the 500: (This one would look great)http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0832462/M/I hope I'm not being rude asking for all of these favors. All I really want is just one repaint. And that would be the Southwest Canyon Blue livery on the 50N 737-300. The others are just extra but would really be great if they were done. Actually just the Shamu Tan 500 and the Canyon Bl…

Anyone downloaded this superb example of great freeware?If so, is anyone having the insane tail flutter problem that I am suffering? It kicks in at about 143 knots, as you increase speed, and will only go away if you reduce speed below about 133 knots. It renders the plane pretty much unusable for me...I can barely keep hold of my joystick, as the force feedback tries to wrench it out of my hand!If you change to spot view, the elevator is flapping from one extreme of movement to the other, in a manner that would in reality rip the tail off!Just wondered if anyone else is having this problem?Its such a stunning model...Regards,Al.

I just installed some freeware AI traffic aircraft and I think I'm discovering the limitations of the default AFCAD files. I just did a flight from KATL to KMIA and noticed what I think is a lack of aircraft at the terminals. I'd say I saw 10 aircraft at each airport during my taxi which seems unrealistically low which I believe means I need to get new AFCADs to provide more parking spaces, right? Are there any AFCAD packs out there that modify the AFCAD files of many airports at a time, or am I forced to download a bunch of individual AFCADs? To clarify, I'm mostly interested in packs that would cover multiple USA airports. Maybe all the class Bs and some of the larger…

Hi,Can anyone explain what initiates AI jet engine sounds, flaps & wheels operating during take off, landing etc. The reason I ask is I have one 757 which has reverse thrust after landing and a 737 which does'nt. Rather odd I thought which then led to my think how are the varies actions controlled.Cheers Keith

Ok... I've tried to be cool about it... I'm sure that if this is ANYTHING like the train sim that these things are known and have be debated to death, however as a newb I experiencing it for the first time...See the attachment for what happened when I started up a game I had saved where I was parked at the gate - I almost pushed back into him.How about the ATCs that play ping pong with you? Station A: Contact Station BStation B: Contact Station ARepeat...Crashing into an invisible wall approaching LAX... When it happened it said "BUILDING CRASH" in instant replay it simply said "CRASH" and on all other attempts there was nothing there...Am I just having a bad day/week …

(See Attachment) - Weather Radar in my gauges folder.... I have NO idea where it came from, I've only installed 4 or 5 aircraft, and I only kept 3 (B17, P38, HU16) So does anyone know where this came from? How to read it?The "Buttons" do nothing, it simply displays that "radar image" - it moves and seems to be related to the FS environment, but I haven't been in a storm with it to know for sure...Seems like it's more eye candy then a nav aid.

Maybe this would be better off being asked "in real life" but since I'm trying to do this in FS2004, I thought I'd ask here.Goal - To make an island hopping flight from LA to Subic Bay (Phillipines), the aircraft is an HU-16 Albatross.I've made the leg from LA to Maui and from Maui to Midway Atoll, but after landing there and seeing an odd undocumated triangle of runways right next to the one I landed on I started to investigate.A few searches later I found out that the runways were used during WWII, when the other one (that I landed on) didn't exist. I also found out that Midway is only in limited operation and mostly a wildlife reserve now...So - How does one go about …

Is it possible to have multiple joystick configuration files, or is there a program that can allow you to change the configuration of the fly within FS since you do not need to exit FS and restart it.Thanks for any assistance in this matterKroswynd

I have installed a lot of AI traffic and I love it. But the FS2004-ATC is totally insufficient to handle all this traffic especially on approach. I have tried AIsmooth, but this program ignores my plane completely and holds only AI planes when there are difficulties. Question: Is there a more sophisticated ATC program that can handle holds etc and avoid crashes between AI planes and my plane in dense approaches? Radar Contact? Vox ATC?

I saw the Dreamfactory webpage. They have like 4 screen shots. Yeah..thats right. 4 screen shot of their addon scenery of Geneva airport and they are basically crap. They also have some flash screen with 2.5 inch screenshot and some 2.5 inch size screenshot that does not display a bigger version when clicked on it. What are they trying to hide? http://www.dreamfactorystudio.eu/geneva.htmAny other addon vendors out there with a good Geneva airport scenery? Preferably with a plan to upgrade to FSX eventually?ThanksManny

I am experiencing a very strange problem with the Afcad 2.21 program.I have just reformated my hard drive, am in the process of reinstalling FS2004 and its addons. This problem occurs with just a fresh install and Afcad 2.21 (no other FS Addons). Afcad 2.21 opens normally, but when "Open Airport" is selected, the page just freezes.After a couple of minutes, if "Ctrl-Alt-Del" is pressed, the Airport selections appear, and the program then appears to operate normally until I want to open another airport, and the same thing repeats.I have started the computer in safe mode, and Afcad 2.21 appears to operate normally in this mode.If anyone can help fix this,it would be much ap…

Anyone know if there is a .cfg setting that can be changed that would give us a more realistic ATC climb/descent clearance in Fs9? As it is now, ATC will give us a "cleared to climb to" clearance 200' before reaching the last assigned altitude. This is totally unrealistic. In most cases ATC will give a climb/descent clearance 500' to 1000' minumum before reaching your assigned altitude, depending on a/c type and vertical speed.It's not a big deal, since I've found ways to work around it, but I was just wondering if I could make it a little bit more realistic for us.John M

When going from .Net 1.1 to ver.2/ver.3 is it supposed to simply update ver.1, or do you need to uninstall the previous ver. I,m on ver.3, but when I tried to install EditVoicePack3, it asked for ver.1.1. I then checked and saw I have ver.2 AND ver.3. It seems an awful lot of stuff on the HD.Russell. (confused)
