Okay, this just started happening the other day to me, and I dunno what exactly started it, but whenever I launch FS2004, it immediately loads-up the default flight at Meigs Field. I'd kinda like to be taken to the main menu like it's supposed to do ... any ideas on how to undo this?

In your fs9.cfg configuration file, make sure that the settings in the STARTUP section are as they appear below:DEMO=0LOADSIM=1LOADWINDOW=1SHOW_OPENING_SCREEN=1STARTUP_DEMO=

Yep, that resolved it. Thank you for your quick reply. =)
