Hi there. I checked all the forum subcategories and I think this is the appropriate one to post in. I went to Roatan last February for vacation, and was lucky enough to talk to the pilot of my B737 flight about the approach. I knew there was no ILS there, and I asked him what approach he used. He told me it is an RNAV approach complete with GPS guidance in the FMC. Anyway, I'm still relatively new to flight simulation (about 6 months). I never used a 737 yet, but decided to try landing at this airport (MHRO) using the default FSX Airbus that I ported to P3D. I'm more familiar with this plane, and while I know it's probably not nearly as good as Aerosoft equivalent, t…

Hello, My first sim experience was Microsoft Flight Simulator 98, and I continued as a member of several virtual airlines over a period of around ten years. I stopped flying virtually shortly after the release of FSX due to the time commitment required to get my career where I wanted it. A few weeks ago, I learned that Flight Simulator was in development and feel it’s an excellent time to pick up where I left off. Over the next several months, I’ll be reading as much as I can to learn about everything I’ve missed.

My 12 year old grandson has recently shown interest in becoming a pilot. I purchased a yoke and pedals and have been running FSX on a MS Surface. I am looking very strongly at upgrading to a faster computer and monitor setup. Can anyone provide input on what would work best, particularly monitor wise? Multi monitor vs extra wide monitor? Any minimum levels to start with processor and video cards? Any other pitfalls to watch out for during purchase? Thanks in advance for any assist.

So I bought the Reality XP GTN 750 for FSX Steam and I had it working for a day but then something happened and now the screen is just black. I have been through the manual and the this form but I cant seem to find a fix for my issue. I have tried uninstalling every item I had in FSX SE and starting from scratch and it still does not work. I uninstalled GTN as well to include the trainer and then re installed it as well. The addon button in the menu still works but the actual items do not work. Here is my rxpGTN.gau.log 20/03/06 01:45:57.149 03764 - ] # rxpGTN.dll version 2.5.22.2 20/03/06 01:45:57.149 03764 INFO ] and here is my rxpGtnSim.dll.log …

Glad to join the community! I have only started using a flight simulator this year, so my question may seem a little naiive. But here goes..... Just wondering if others have seen this issue, and any advice that could be offered. I have the T.Flight Hotas 4 Joystick which I have been using on FSX (Steam Edition) on Windows 10. I just purchased the TFRP Rudder Pedals, which I have plugged into the joystick with the RJ12 connector, as directed in the manual. When using FSX, the rudder pedals work fine and actuate the rudder on the aircraft properly, but I do not get toe brakes to do anything on either pedal. The switch on the front of the joystick continues to operate …

Hi, I'm new to X-plane since January & I have latest version 11.41. I have been learning to take off/fly & land etc and all cool, but I have noticed recently after about 8-10 minutes of flying, my Garmin 530/430 screens on the Cessna 172 just go blank! I have the alternator switch turned ON along with battery switch - I have a Honeycomb yoke. Very annoying having filed a flight plan and going along nicely...then boom...screens go blank and plans are up in smoke! Any help, ideas why this is happening? Many thanks Wedman

Hi, I flew flight simulators all my life until about 10 years back. I flew mainly military flightsims but started my flightsim career with MS FSII. My biggest passion was Falcon 4.0. At that time I had one of the biggest Falcon 4.0 websites, www.f4hq.com. (does not exists any more) I saw of course the first MSFS2020 video and was immediately interested to commit to that. So I want the whole experience, including online flying and if possible a local flightsim group that I can join. Still a huge amount of questions and that is why I joined this forum.

Hi guys. I registered early this morning. I have a few flight sims, but I am actually more of a space sim nut. But I have stopped waiting for Star Citizen. Long ago! Hah. Seems like a vibrant community. I will enjoy poking around... Cheers, Hudson

I am new to the forums so hope I have the correct one have been using FSX (not steam version) on my desktop for many years but have lost the ability to take off! I proceeded down the runway, flaps at 5 degrees, lift off at 140 knots, lift gear and climb at a steady rate my joystick sometimes allows me to control the rate of pitch but when I engage the autopilot for the preset altimeter with a reasonable feet per minute setting the nose of the plane goes virtually upright before spiralling out of control and crashes to the ground sometimes just after take off the joystick does not allow me to control the pitch and the nose of the plane goes virtually upr…

I believe that I read in one of the fora that there is a forum focusing upon Alabeo aircraft. Is that correct? If so, how do I find it?

Good evening to all! You may adjust that statement to suit whichever time zone you're reading this in 😂 Flight simulation has long been one of my hobbies. Other things in life have captured my interest over the last few years, leading me to not fool with sims as much. And now I'm back! As the title would suggest, I have lurked in these forums for a very long time. Figure that tonight is as good of a night as any to stop being a stranger, so here I am! My primary sim is P3Dv4.5, but I have experimented with XP11 in the past. My goal is to simulate day-to-day operations of airliners; with most of my in-sim flying being done in North America. To that end, I purchased th…
