I have a question. When I handed the controls over to Otto, and we were vectored for traffic, she did nothing. I found out that if I would switch the Ap from NAV to HDG, then she would adjust heading as needed, and would continue to fly the GPS flight plan via the heading bug. Is this the way it is supposed to work? The manual really didn't say.The other thing that didn't work right was the save feature. I saved while on downwind at 7000ft, 090, and 200kts. Well of course FS2002 locked up just as I was touching down. When I restarted FS and loaded the saved flight from RC3, it put me on final, and the controller was telling me I was supposed to be at 7000ft and 090, which is where I was when I saved. I slewed and adjusted and landed alright, but ol' Bill was waiting for me. :-eek I had a great flight up until I had to reload. Any ideas?Thanks.

AP settings should be HDG hold and ALT holddid you have the debug button pushed down?did you save a flight while on final?

>AP settings should be HDG hold and ALT hold >>did you have the debug button pushed down? >>did you save a flight while on final? Ok, so I need to have HDG selected. That works. Are you talking about the debug on RC3? I don't believe I had it down. what does debug do exactly?I have auto save enabled in FS2002, but set for 60 seconds and I was almost landing when it crashed, so the autosave updated from where the RC saved flight put me. In fact I tried restoring the autosave file, and it did put me much closer to the runway, than where Rc did.

Jerry,Setting auto-save in FSUIPC does not save RC's state. You have to have RC's save function on. If you press the Debug button in RC, it'll save everytime you are handed to a new controller - like Tower on final.You can also manually save with a jey, or from the interface.

Just to clear the save flight up, I did save the flight using the save button on RC3 on my base leg, and that is the one I restored that put me in the wrong position on final.What file does the Debug save to? That sounds like a good option. :) Will it also save the FS2002 situation like the normal save function?edit: OK, what is that default key after the ctrl/shift for save? :)It has a number of 999, I can't find it. I'll change it, just curious.

If it didn't then something else happened.>What file does the Debug save to?

Thanks Scott. I'll see if it happens again. It maybe was just a sh!t happens type event. :-hahOther than that; nice program. It's really nice to get real AI traffic calls now. Now if MS would just let you really get at the AI traffic so ground, takeoff, and landing traffic could be accounted for, and it would be perfect.
