    Sorry if this had been asked before but I did a search in the forum and did not see this specific question if its in here. I had a problem with my aircraft pulling to the left while on the ground during taxi or takeoff. I have a ground handling gauge on my aircraft panel that controls the taxi speed (Ultimate boeing Panel), so the throttles to both engines were getting the same power so that wasn't the problem. I finally resorted to recallibrating my joystick (Saitek X45) and that seemed to solve the problem. However, after starting a flight, I switched to spot view during taxi to the runway and the problem surfaced again. I determined that switching to spot view someho…

    mine is somewhat outdated, and I feel like redoing my real life flight in the cirrus this time in FS :) I just wanted to know if I could update the airac somehow though

    Has anyone who flies the Captain Sim 707 figured out a "fix" for the grossly incorrect fuel flows? In the screenshot I've included you will see what the main panel gauges say is fuel flow, for each engine...around 2550 lbs/engine. This is what I would expect for a b707-300B flying at FL310 and M 0.78? BUT the actual fuel coming out of the tanks (and, therefore, the REAL fuel flow) is around 3,600 lbs/engine. This is verified by my FSFT ACARS text you see in the Screenie...or maybe not, it's hard to read but take my word for it. Has anyone who flies this "aircraft" x( figured out how to correct this? From what I know, the 10,000 to 12,000 fuel flow should be expected for …

    Hi guys, am assuming others are flying this glorious bird besides me! I have really enjoyed it, except for one problem. I find that when I plot a flight plan into my RXP GNS530 GPS (I know...non standard equipment), when I get to a VOR waypoint, the Autopilot kicks off of its VOR track. I cant get it to go to the next waypoint without manually reactivating it. Whats the best way to make it track? Granted its an older plane and this probably isnt how it was designed, but I figured to give it a better autopilot than the lousy GPS 500 from FS9.Eric

    Hello everyone,I have the scenery referenced in the subject line and it seems that it didn't come with AFCAD files, because my sceneries/navaids/runways, etc, are misaligned from the visual scenery, which I can only assume means that the AFD is still referencing the default for these airports. Does anyone else who owns this scenery have this problem? If so, do you know where I can find AFCAD files to correct this?Thanks.

    I've noticed that AI aircraft seem to push around the same time at hub airports. For example NW at DTW. Is there a way to change this? The results of the pushes is unrealistic and aircraft taxi through other aircraft that have pushed back in the taxi path.

    Is there a cfg. file tweak for more trees? I tried the treegen file in the Avsim library that gives you more trees and reduces their size by 40% but I didn't like it. I just want more default trees if possible.I'm mostly doing bush flights and my FPS is very good. I want bring the detail up another notch.Thanks.

    Hello I just brought and installed vista last night reinstalled everything inculding FS9. I went to do a flight today and setup the keys like I had before I set the views(cycle) up to the S key and a button on my joystick however when I push either key or button it does not change the view. I have checked and it is accepting the keys to change the views but nothing is happening. If I click on view I can change the views that way and cycle back though them with the joystick button. When I get back to the flight deck view it will not change by pressing the button I have to go back to view.Anybody have this happen to them?Mike

    Hello. I'm hoping someone can help me out here.I have just noticed that my UPS AI aircraft (mostly PAI but 1 or 2 Aardvark) are not moving. They never leave their parking areas.I have checked several airports and none of them are moving at any time during the day. They show up just fine but they never move.As far as I can tell it's only my UPS stuff. Everything else seems to be okay. I could have sworn that these guys used to work.Has anyone ever seen this before and/or can give me a clue as to what's going on?Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

    Hi,I was wondering if someone could point me to the place in the panel.cfg file that adjust the "view" from the 2D.I mean the view, if your looking from the 2D and hit SHIFT+BACKSPACE/ENTER etc, how it moves up and down. I don't want to move it the full UP or down, so i'd like to edit it in increments to give the desiered look.Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!!

I can't find the airplane to save my life!I sorted my Aircraft folder by date and it doesn't show up for today. Tried searching for Simmer, Overland, MD-11 ... no luck.What am I missing?

    Hi all, I've been looking for some good Chicago scenery payware or freeware, but it needs to be downloadable, since I buy on impulse and want what I buy when I buy it. FS9 default ground textures are so ugly compared to FSX, but I don't have any complex airliners to fly in FSX yet, so I was hoping to get a hold of some good scenery for Chi-town. I noticed that really there are no good airport sceneries for O'Hare, I know flyTampa has Midway, but Simflyer's O'hare is outdated and kills performance. Also, I see Horizon scenery has Chicago VFR, does anyone know if it is available anywhere in a downloadable version?Thanks,Jeff
