I just tried to watch this video and it hard locked my pc and rebooted it. Be wary all who try.

Ran perfectly for me - no issues at all.A beautifully concieved and executed presentation.

There is no way on earth I would ever click on 'Download this' in a forum message no matter who provided the link. But I still have Tongass X on my wish list. To be honest it was my least favorite part of the great Misty/Tongass/Glacier Bay FS9 trilogy. I will be much more excited when Glacier Bay FSX is eventually released and will then get Tongass to extend the range of that. But it is a marvel to be sure. (And it is all Holger and Bill Womack by the way - Mr Dumas just provides the fluff and the packaging).

Hi David,Thanks... That was quite enjoyable. By the way, the music was fantastic. What is the name of the group? I first thought Stevee Ray but did not remember him doing that song. Bob

The theme music to Top Gear is an Allman Brothers track called 'Jessica'(I'd provide a YouTube link but then I'd contradict my earlier post :()

Prompted by this beautiful video, I took the Orbx enhanced Goose for a flight out of Bella Bella.. This is a lot of fun!Just a basic question regarding the HD textures.. is it necessary to edit the fsx.cfg file each timebefore a flight to set the maximum texture size to 4096 (from 1024) or is there a better way?

Shoot.... I was thinking of them but could not remember their name. I havent listened to them in decades. I really need to head back to the past a little bit. ThanksBob

You only have to do it once unless you change anything in the display settings again while in FSX. As long as you don't change anything 'in game' after you have altered the cfg then it will stay at 4096.

Steve Frost, one of our fellow forumer has created a small utility called Texture Max Load Editor.It does the change for you automatically.Make a search here , you'll get it easily.

David,Took your advice on Tongass. I bought it and am on my 4th attempt to download it. Don't know why it's so difficult from SimMarket, but it is. I'll keep trying.Stan
