I crossing my fingers. Any improvement to the weather system would make me happy.Ian.

At the "Select A Flight" option, in the list, almost to the bottom of the "Category" box there's an option for "Short Flights (Kiosk)".. Select that and it'll open up the list of flights used in Kiosk mode. Select the "Barnstorming" one. Yer in a Curtiss Jenny, so you may or may not want to change aircraft. I usually change over to Owen Hewitt's Bell JetRanger. The barn is right ahead of you.Good luck.

Not sure. Just a quick thought after reading the topic posts.;-) >Regards,Mark.
