What a great site, Johnny. Keep up the good work!tony

Johnny, thanks for your great site.And Andrew, thanks for your hintsand tips.Nice to have it at one place.Great work.Andrew, now that you can make those lovely bridges, what about some nice BIG oilrigs? That can be landed on with choppers :)Jan

Jan,Now there's a great idea :)Colin

Hehehe...Gotta start my own design bureau soon :)I agree, it is a good idea. And I have been out there so many times that I have a lot of picture material. I am planning to make a Shuttle Tanker too, the one I`ve been sailing on for years. But right now the Lions Gate Bridge are coming up, and I have some other small bridges to model. After that, a few modern gates for terminals.BTW Johnny, nice working session last evening!

Johnny and Andrew,That's very useful and a great addition.I've been busy loading some of the scenery so I can now tweak settings and begin to really enjoy FlyII.Hopefully in the near future I should be able to e-mail you some tips or answers to questions I had during this process.3nm NNE NZGS:-wave

Johnny and Andrew,Thanks for the great FAQ, I'm sure we can add some more tips to the list: there are a many undocumented features in Fly! II as well as some bugs easy to solve.I start:Feature: Use CTRL + mouse to easily move the panel around.Bug: If you lowered maximum visibility in the scenery options and can't raise it again, do this:-open the weather-other dialogue and set the visibility slider under ten miles-in the scenery options, set the desired max visibility value-maximize visibility again in weather-other box.Cheers!Pascal

Thanks guys for the feedback and info!!Keep it coming,and we'll have a big database soon :)Johnny"I'LL BE BACK"[div align=center]http://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/josve/zone.jpg ][/div
