October 19, 20178 yr Excellent "Pilots' Guide". And some terrific videos -- just captivating, really. The sunsets at Salar de Uyuno are truly worth the price of admission -- to see these in high quality 4K video is a treat. And in the Potosi street scenes ... the man in the white Bengal tiger suit? Look forward to this. --Mike MacKuen

October 22, 20178 yr After the flight, I bought the ($50) a2a C182 for P3D and installed it. Looks just like the FSX version that I already own, and after fixing the broken beacon light, it runs just great!! Bert
October 23, 20178 yr After the flight I went and kicked the dog! Remember I came back and said my connection worked! Another lie. I found out via a post in JoinFS forum that the method of connecting to my own server was to use the internal IP i.e. 192.168.0.5 which works a treat. I think I'll try using the Hub method. This will make it easier for new guys to join without the angst of IP addresses etc. Simply go View\Hubs\Find 'AvsimRTW'\click Join. Simples. The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
