At th emoment I'm struggling to find sceneries for th eAfrican nations. I have the Aeroworx ones for South Africa but not many others. Any links for sceneries will help prolong my stay int he continent of Africa.As for the A320. I'm using the patch which was withdrawn. The only "bug" I have is the autrotrim on the ground. It's easily solved by manually setting take off trim. Other than that i can't see why so many people made so much fuss.The Dash 8, same setup, the withdrawn patch. Again only one minor problem. The engine torque gauges are inoperative, very easy to live with.I'm sure the guys at PSS will release those new patches as soon as they can. I'm aware there are a few unexpected complications they are trying to work around. Side note: If they need an additional beta tester for any patches or "new" toys then I'll gladly help them out. I'm an experience PSS aircraft flyer, I hold a real world PPL+IFR+TWIN rating. Also, I work in ATC so have an extensive knowledge of aircraft and aircraft performance.......its worth a try ;)

Hi ChrisGreat series realy loving the pictures...and planning on following you around on your trips...dont know if you remember the days of the world flight that was done back when PSS had just relesased there 747. They were great fun and added that something extra to FS..used to lonf for each sunday to come round.Anyhow to get to my point...I'd be interested to know more about your system, and add-ons you have etc...what you use for each flight etc.James Carr

Leg 25 - nice shots.But one question: you landed, and before you put down your front gear, you engange reverse thrust? Man, you risk a lot :)Afaik, usually, one first idles the engines, where speedbrakes automatically deploy, then after the main gear has touched down, you slowly put the nose down and THEN engage reverse thrust. If not like this, you seriously risk plunging nose gear into the ground from the reverse thrust. And I also think that autobrakes are engaged when reverse thrusting, but I might be wrong on this one...So all in all, correct me if I'm wrong :)

"but I might be wrong on this one..."It depends what the company SOP's say, the thrust reversers can be opened while the nose wheel is still in the air.
