Excellent guys, but can you advise how it can be implemented now that the 800/900 are available? The panel config files have changed significantly for the 600/700.This would be greatly appreciated.

The big change is the invisible simicon which is positioned on the PMDG "WX" panel button and pops up the WX500 as a separate window.It is an old thread that I revisited after reinstalling FS and all add on's and hence the comment.Kyprianos Biris :-cool
