Hi,I just recently uploaded the freeware TU-154 froma a Russian (Russian AVSIM?) site. I am so intrigued and eager to fly this plane that I have even begun to learn Cyrilic. The problem I am having right now, is that everytime I change to the engineer's panel, the engines shut down, and I can't re-start or cold-start it either since I get a message saying I have to register FSUIPC (pay). I have no problem with paying for it, and will, but for the moment, I was wondering if anybody who visits this forum, has had a chance to play with this amazing bird, and knows a way around the engines shutting down problem. BTW, FSUIPC site says that there is no need to register (pay) if the software is freeware, so this is why I thought there might be a way around this. I am specially intrigued by the "HBY" navigation system.... looks delicious ....thanks for your help in advance,MacSite link below, if you want to check it out.:

Hello man :DYou're right, it's a really amazing plane !!!For your "problem", that happens everytime you open the engineer's panel. To restart engines, you effectively need a registered version of FSUIPC. Of course this plane is a freeware, but it needs to pay for FSUIPC.The site of this plane is : tu154.avsim.ru, you'll find a very good english tutorial about this plane there.I really advice you to get this plane flying, it's really interesting !!!
