April 19, 201610 yr Used for all flights; 1) SIMstarter NG 2) SPAD (Saitek multi, switch, and two radio panels) 3) HID macros (used with USB keypad for GPS or 2d panels) 4) FSUIPC4 Used for most flights; 5) ASN 6) Plan-G (crashes frequently on my system, but still somewhat useful). The above doesn't include REX, FTX Global, etc. or any other scenery or texture enhancement package.
April 19, 201610 yr Author What the heck is FSTramp LOL - I will check this out Keep em coming. Everyone is so into this hobby. Wow Thanks Bob Officially retired
April 19, 201610 yr Regarding Fs-FlightControl: Will it work on Full Screen Mode (will stay on top of sim), or do you need to resize your sim? Hi, I asked the author of FSFlightControl this morning and the update I just received has the option already implemented. BTW, FSFligthcontrol provides a trial version. If you look for this function, it's under Settings|Not Aircraft related Settings|Show FS-FlightControlWindows Always on Top. Kind regards, Michael What the heck is FSTramp LOL - I will check this out Keep em coming. Everyone is so into this hobby. Wow Thanks Bob FSTramp is what FSNavigator was for FS9 (or was it even earlier?). The F9 key. It has pretty cool functions and maps, but the author refuses to make it network-enabled making it useless for me. F9 times are gone.

April 19, 201610 yr After all these years, I have become a firm KISS believer. I only use what I consider the bare minimum : ASN, MTX 6a, the GTN750 . For planning Plan-G (non connected to P3D as it crashes in a networked configuration) or Skyvector. No FSUIPC, no substitute texture set à la REX, no launcher, etc. I have bought MCE but don't use it as I find it eats up frames. I look, from time to time, into a trial ATC. Still to be convinced. Maybe VoXATC one day if i can unload it to a networked laptop.

April 20, 201610 yr Fsuipc The obvious answer. Perhaps start another topic with a question of favorite other than FSUIPC.

April 20, 201610 yr FSUIPC ActiveSky Next for the weather. Navigraph Charts for the approach charts PFPX for the flight planning TOPCAT for T/O performance calculations. FSiPanel for approaches training.
April 20, 201610 yr Navigraph Charts for the approach charts I like the Navigraph charts but I was surprised how spotty it was...seemed like even some smaller regionals weren't available. FSiPanel for approaches training. A PITA to set up, not a great GUI, but once it's working...great app. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane.

April 20, 201610 yr The only really essential ones (I'm talking of FSX): 1) FSUIPC 2) Active Sky Next 3) Ezdok Without those you don't have a proper sim in "working order".

April 20, 201610 yr Awesome Michael- Awesome! Then guess what? I will purchase FS-Flight Control. I tried it last night and it is a brilliant piece of Software !!! At $50.00 it IS worthy!
April 20, 201610 yr Commercial Member For me my fav's are: FSUIPC SPAD (original version) FDSFX panel Super Traffic Board crgsim (full blown networked glass panel for tubeliners-free!)
