August 23, 20214 yr I am currently using Self Loading Cargo which includes cabin announcements. Is it possible to use both SLC and FS2Crew together? Does FS2Crew make SLC not necessary? Thanks.
August 23, 20214 yr Commercial Member FS2Crew is a primarily a dedicated flight crew simulation that tries to be as authentic as possible within the constraints of a desktop computer. It's about checklists, flows and procedures - the stuff you do in the cockpit. Self loading cargo does nothing like that. Self loading cargo seems more like a "fun" type of addon, kind of like the old FSPassengers. I see no reason why you couldn't use both together at the same time. If you want to turn off the FS2Crew Cabin PAs, just set the volume slider to 0 for them. Cheers, B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
August 23, 20214 yr Author Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately I have never used FS2Crew before. I tried watching the available you tube videos and read some existing reviews, but I am still not completely sure exactly what the new version for FBW enhances in the sim, and how the various features can be customized by the user. Without a manual to read, or a more in-depth demo trailer its tough to see all the add-on has to offer. Perhaps a time limited trial version may help unfamiliar users like me decide to pull the trigger on a purchase. Just my 2 cents...

On YouTube, there are 100s of FS2Crew videos that'll give you a sense of what it's all about. We have have a small tutorial here: But in a word, it's a flight crew simulation. The First Officer does his procedures, you do your procedures. You run checklists together. It's a multi-crew simulation. B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
August 24, 20214 yr You wont regret! Im using both FS2Crew and SLC and they complement themselves well. Just mute Cabin PA volume in FS2Crew!
August 24, 20214 yr Author I will definitely give that a go. So far I just tried FS2Crew and their announcements, just to try and get a handle on how it works. Definitely a bit of a learning curve! Thanks for your reply.
January 9, 20224 yr Hi, Just came across this SLC software and seems to be quite interesting but was wondering if it will complement FS2Crew, so I googled and reached here. Good to know that SLC complements FS2Crew but I am wondering how to get them to jive and what is the learning curve like? Will Pushback Express complement as well? If I can get it sorted out, I might pull the trigger as well.... :) Any advise is much appreciated. Thanks.

They're not either/or type programs. I know many of our users use both at the same time. Cheers, B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord

January 12, 20224 yr I use both FS2Crew and SLC. They work well together but you might want to turn the volume off on cabin announcements in FS2Crew. Richard

Richard Hi Richard, I bit the bullet and went ahead with SLC and so far, I have been pretty satisfied. Adrian Edited January 18, 20224 yr by drgnkid
