If you like flying in Minnesota, Wisconsin and South Dakota, go check out the Avsim Library! I've just uploaded scenery for 26 airports: 18 in Minnesota; five in Wisconsin; and three in South Dakota; bringing some much-needed life to this part of the United States.In the library, click "What's New" or search for:northern_minnesota_airports.zipcentral_minnesota_airports.zipsouthern_minnesota_airports.zipwisconsin_regional_airports.zipsouth_dakota_regional_airports.zipAll sceneries have been made using the RWY12 object libraries. These packages represent nearly five months of work; after years of enjoying the many fine files in the library, I thought it was time to give bac…

Does anyone here use this hardware? I have a strange problem in that when I am testing the flight controls, everything centers correctly (ie, I turn the rudder, let go, it centers itself).However, when I power on the airplane, it always pulls strongly to the right no matter what I do, I have to constantly keep fighting the rudder.This happens in all airplanes (default and 3rd party). When I calibrate the joystick, everything centers properly.Any ideas on what to tweak in FS to make this work? Do I need a different joystick?I only bought the Logitech because I found out Microsoft EOL'd the Sidewinder series :(Thanks

I keep seeing references in scenery downloads(recently,Yeager airport) to Rwy 12 object library and the program exists here at AVSIM as a free download. I can not seem to find it. Could anyone help,please? Thank you, Bob K.

Hello All.I have suddenly experienced CTDs when loading FlyTampa's KMDW. Previous to today I have had no problems with it. On their forum I found a suggestion to delete and re-install, but that did not help.Are they any of you out there that could lend some advice? I also just realized that I cannot load a flight from Kord or Meigs field either. Could this be a corupt file in my standard FS9 scenery file? By no means am I a computer wiz so any suggestions would be great. Thanks,Scott

how many airbii is this now? I'm not saying most of them won't be great, I just find the Airbus itself a bore. A severely limited hal9000-like computer. We are missing whole fleets of bizjets, high quality PMDG like kinds. Learjets, Falcons, Citations with FMCs, Gulfstreams, BBJs.Or how about freight dawgs who enjoy planes like the 1900c, B99, 402C, C208. How about PMDG-like (not express) quality from them?GA aircraft are also missing, many peoples favorites are gone. How many companies are making airbus now?

hello, my problem is this: start FS9 splash screen appears then disappears. Have read all the the posts about spalash screen errors, or all those that i can find. Still no joy.This is how it started: had an issue with memory. Could run three sticks of memory but if I put a fourth in, my system crahsed (I had always initially had four sticks of ram in my system 2GB ut that's another issue resolved). Anyway, I took my PC to a shop, they ran tests on the memory, even ran FS9 in the shop, and would you believe, 4 sticks of memory ran, no problem, typical after having dragged my PC to the shop. Anyway, I get back home looking forward to running FS9 on 2GB of ram again and…

Hi,I've used FS9 from the start and the MRAI installer from it's release. Never had problemsI lost my HD about two years ago and have only recently got back into FS.So I re-installed everything and all seems OK......except I now frequently get a run-time error 364 object will be unloaded on the MRAI installer.Installer version is 1.24 and never posed a problem before.I unistalled and re-installed it, I installed the latest and the oldest visual basic files, no joy. (thought maybe an issue with those)Has anybody else had this problem and if so how did you solve it?The thought of adding FP's (and special liveries) without the MRAI installer fills me with dread.:-(Chrz in ad…

I just downloaded the skin pack, but it installs everything into aircraft/a320pic folder, which doesnt exist! every type has its own aircraft folder, so I have no clue why they did it like this... I would move everything manually but not sure where they go...any help please? :(also I'd like to make a turkish airlines skin, where can I find a base skin pack if there is one?:)

Hey guys I'm having a problem with FS9 and default airports in FS9. Maybe I haven't noticed it after all these years, but all of the airports have city streets and crop textures under them:Basically the problem is that the textures surrounding the airport continue underneath it, making it very unrealistic. FSX fixes this problem (albiet with ugly desert textures) but does anyone have a fix for FS9?

Is it me, or is the general level of support for payware aircraft getting worse and worse.Take FeelThere for example. The release of their Airbus has been a disaster - many people are still having major difficulties downloading a product they have already paid for. FeelThere are washing their hands of the situation, stating it's Wilco's problem, not theirs. If I had released a product, and the publisher had completely cocked up the release, I'd be working frantically to try and sort the situation out for my customers. FeelThere's response is to say it's not their problem. In fact a new post has appeared from FeelThere stating that anyone complaining that they can't downlo…

Well, I installed her and she works fine. Only thing is I fly in the VC all the time with my Th2G setup and it's always raining on the windshield even in clear wx! I understand there is a patch for this bizarre effect (which did not exist in their 727) but don't know where to find it.The forward panel on the VC is clickable but nothing else in the VC is. I read tonight that other parts of the VC are or can be clickable depending on the panel you have active. Do you know anything about this?Thanks!JS

A blizzard is raging right now (14:22) EST around Southern Michigan! For fun, crank up FS9 and do some touch and goes. Great Cat III stuff...:)Use ASV 6.5 and crank in KDTW. You'll love it....Mitch R.

Hi all, Im flying the level d 767.Normally I let the autopilot control the throttle and descent rate and i stay lined up with the runway. I can do this with the default FS planes but not with the level d 767.Ive tired turning off wing leveler and disabling it but that doesnt help. Please can someone help me?Thanks

GentsDownloaded 85MB worth of Airbus 2-days ago (take @2hrs to download due to system traffic). Despite its price tag ($50), in my view well worth the investment. This is not the overly simplified PSS version Airbus--this is the real deal.I've flown the 318 and 319 versions for nearly 10 hours now with Active Sky 6.5 and Squawkbox 3.1 with no interface problems at all.The Airbus Vol 1 comes with a voluminous operating manual (which is required reading before lighting the fires). I'm a proud Boeing driver but really appreciate the detail and system complexity associated with the Airbus (318-321)--some won't.As with most glass cockpits--but especially with Airbus--the pi…

Does anyone have any pictures they can show us of the new airbus, mainly VC and interior cabin?

Hi all,Due to a recent computer meltdown/OS re-install, I have lost all details of my FSNav reg details. Anyhow, rather than go through the hassle of trying to recover these, I thought I might try another similar program to create my flight plans etc. as I have had FSNav for a very long time.I was wondering if anyone can suggest a similar app that has the functionality of FSNav and perhaps goes the next step, whatever that may be.With thanks,Chris Porter:-outtaPerthWestern Australia

Hello Has anybody recently managed to get there counter reset??Cant for the life of me work out why they dont just disable it to enable people to complete there downloads ??Looks like feelthere has washed there hands of this !!ThanksSimon WardNZCH

After recently finishing a reinstall, i realize i'm still missing some scenery.....It provided a large (moving) naval fleet, exiting San Diego Bay. I can't even remember if it's freeware or payware.Anyone any ideas please?

I am considering upgrading from Win XP Pro to Win Vista Ultimate. Being a devoted Flight Simmer I want to make sure that FS9 and some add-ons keep working in the new system.I normally run FS 9 with FS Meteo and Radar Contact 4.2. I use FS Builder for flight plans and fly PMDG 747-400/400F most of the time.Do I have any reason to worry?My hardware is OK according to upgrade advisor. /Lars
