October 1, 200718 yr Does anyone know of a good tutorial / basic step by step guide for going through an entire flight from point a to point b on the DC-9 for a beginner.I was hoping for a guide for a sample flight to go from a given airport to another. I think they have an auto startup option, or one that eliminates some of the steps in the dark startup, but I still need help beyond this.For example...Click on this button, enter this number, fly up to xxxxx feet, when this happens descent to xxxxx feet, line this up on this gauge, extend flaps, etc.I'd like to to be basic, yet specific enough for one of my kids to go through without getting in too much depth at this point. Somebody to actually pick a starting airport, destination and go through the exact steps to do it.Is there anything like this?
October 3, 200718 yr I'm a big DC-9 fan. I've had the F1 DC-9 for a long time. It's been awhile since I last flew her, though.To the best of my knowledge, there was never a tutorial written using this specific aircraft, other than what was packaged with the program.If your not familiar already with his site, Stellan Hilmerby, a real world airline captain, has THE site for DC-9 fans here:http://www.hilmerby.com/And of course, there are lots of knowledgable folks over at the Flight1 forums.

October 3, 200718 yr HelloHere is the forum for the F1 DC9 (and others)http://www.simforums.com/forums/forum_topics.asp?FID=10Follow the quick startup guide to get the aircraft set up correctly and get rid of all the warning sounds.Then it is just the same as any other aircraft that uses VOR and NDB for navigation, the only thing to watch for is that Auto throttle only works above 10000ft.The Operations manual that came with the Iron Knuckles explains the systems quite well.I still fly this addon quite a lot so any specific questions just PM me and i will try to help.http://www.freewebs.com/reading1871/30.jpg
