Hello Paul, thank you for this bright idea and your work. I have installed the folder as per your instructions but even though I have several hundred hours of flight over the globe, no new postcards whatsoever:-hmmm :-hmmm I have re-installed my logbook and GrantedRewards bin files as well but to no avail, still no postcards.Any ideas??Thanks.Laurent.

Hi FolksLaurent -Cheers.Apologies if I didn't explain it sufficiently clearly -It's not enough to have flown for hundreds of hours,and any "GoTo Airports" or "Takeoffs" do not count.You need to earn the rewards,by landing at all airports in a particular country/state.In which do you think you've landed at all the airports ?Please explain what you mean when say -"I've re-installed my logbook and grantedrewards.bin files""Visit Series" rewards are granted dependent on the landings recorded in your logbook.Empty logbook == No landings == No "Visit Series" rewards.You can quickly confirm the rewards are working,by performing a landing at any of the following -e.g.AnguillaArubaAscension IslandBarbadosBermudaGambia, TheGibraltarJohnston AtollMacao SARMaltaMartiniqueMayotteMidway IslandsNauruNiueNorth KoreaPalestinian AuthorityTuvaluWake IslandEach of the above will give single reward for each location.Please check at least 2 of the above,and report back whether their rewards are displayed.Don't expect to earn Texas easily,as you'll need to land at 1,475 airports there.You can check where you'd successfully landed,using Jean-Christophe Arnulfo's nice FSX Logbook Viewer (fsxlogbook 1.00D)There's a sortable list of airports you've visited.Available here at AVSIM - http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID...til&DLID=119627HTHATBPaulResized logo pending ;-)http://www.fs-odg.com

Hi Paul,Thank you for your answer. I had not understood that it was needed to land at all the airports of a particular country to earn the postcard :( . I have tried two of the single airport countries and it worked :-yellow1.Thank you.
