There are many 744 flights of the length you preferred in Asia i.e.from Hongkong to Tokio.For myself i like to fly more longer routes, so I can relax and study for my ATPL while cruisin... ;-)

like you Jon, i hope to get into aviation. hope to get into southern university in Illinois and become an airline pilot one day.Adam

No problem. I'd just write a small app to handle that through FSUIPC, then I wouldn't even have to set the alarm ;-)http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/747400.jpgPelle F. S. Liljendal

Peter Dowson (author) of FSUIPC have written a small app. that handle auto-save for you (however not saving the PMDG state). Look for "AutoSave 1.50" at: http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.htmlhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/747400.jpgPelle F. S. Liljendal

Delta Connection Academy or bust for me. They are the only school that gives the possibilities I want.
