Just picked up the 50 Yesterday and I immediately loved it. Still learning systems a bit but one thing I noticed is that My Com 2 and Nav 2 radios have no digits. (Nav 1 and Com 2 as well but the functionality is covered by the Stock GNS) ADF lights up as normal but not the rest of the radios. I'm running the bird in P3d V3. Any ideas?

Late to the Game. PM sent

I had purchased the S330 a while ago but hadn't installed it. I just got my new system up and running and installed the 330. It shows and I ran the model tool to set up the radio/gp[s compatibility. I shows in the select vehicle list but no airplane in the preview. Any ideas?

Or just hit the "B" key to set it.

There used to be an effect file (That I can't find anymore) for FS9 that made the red lights on the antennas brighter and daylight visible. Does anyone have this file and does it work in FSX?

I remember a file a long time ago that made the default red lights on various antenna towers visible in the day and for longer distances. For the life of me, I can't remember the file. Anyone have any ideas?

Here's my situation. It seems my FSX looses it's ATC. For example. I create an IFR plan, get my clearance, taxi out and take off. Sometime in the flight, either before ATC has vectored me on course or slightly afterwards, when I get a radio call to increase altitude or whatever ATC wants me to do. When I pop up the ATC screen, the numbers at the bottom have gone away. The ones you use to acknowledge the ATC request. ATC then keeps calling on me to reply, then cancels IFR . At that point the numbers come back and I can reopen the flight plan and it seems to work. Any Ideas?

Tim Conrad did a nice freeware Porter. Available over at flightsim.

Has anyone ever been able to get the autopilot to track a heading? The altitude hold on mine captures and tracks fine but I think I have a faulty roll servos on my birds. I select a heading and hit heading hold and it will turn in the right direction then keep turning... and turning... and turning. Until it rolls near vertical and then either stalls or tries to go the other way since it overshot the heading bug. Love the plane other than that... but it's damn near unflyable in an IFR situation without at least the heading hold. I even tried pasting in the autopilot section from the default lear and it didn't help Any Ideas?

Thanks! I also happened to spot another upload from this person that looks suspiciously like Dee Waldron's AI IAI Westwind as well. Set up as a flyable aircraft.

Hey guys... I just noticed that a file in the "New Files" of the library today (air_tractor_pr-fog.zip posted by Diogo Luiz Ceccon) is my original Air tractor 801 (at-802a_duster.zip)The Read_Me with my original release specifically states, "This aircraft is released as Freeware. As freeware you are permitted to distribute this archive subject to the following conditions:- The archive must be distributed without modification to thecontents of the archive. Redistributing this archive with any filesadded, removed or modified is prohibited, except for repaints. If a repaint is uploaded it must be textures only.

Please have this file (air_tractor_pr-fog.zip) removed.Thank you,Brian Gladden

I do wish that there had been a Cargo/Gravel kit or Combi/Gravel kit model. In this day and age, most of the 200's working the north are so equipped. I suppose I could repaint the Passenger GK bird with the cargo textures but I wouldn't have the opening cargo door.

Done a bunch of searches and I have not been able to locate one. I know one exists but I don't know where....Thanks,Never mind... found it in the Tinmouse support forum....

Looks like the Avsim Crew have been busy. Congrats guys on getting the forums back up and running.Brian

Just a note. You guys have the best customer service!!! I got a new download link within hours.Thanks Guys.Brian

I have the MAAM Sim C-47 download file somewhere hidden in the labyrinth that is my computer. Since I re-installed FS9 I can't find it!!!!! Can someone tell me the file name so I can search for it?Brian

Don't forget Jimmy Buffet has several airplanes. He regularly flies his Falcon 50 on tour pluss he has a Caravan on Amphibs as his "goin fishin" airplane and also has a Stearman he flies quite a bit. Do a search on youtube for Jimmy Buffet and you'll sea video he did that features his Stearman.Brian

Anyone got a good low frame impact fence library for use in Ez-scenery/Runway 12? something with an LOD so it disapears at some distance from your aircraft?Brian

Awesome tip John... I now can fly Joe Binka's Cessna 195 without getting the blurries :-)Brian

If you're talking about the Basler DC-3 Turboprop conversion I haven't seen one for FS since FS 98.... Maybe one of these days I'll get time to make one.....Brian

Alphasim had one of their own... I downloaded it when I bought the package right after it came out... But I lost it.Brian

Anyone interested in making a Alaska Airlines Salmon thirty Salmon paintjob on the SGA 737-400??ThanksBrian

Anyone still have the Alphasim C-130 paint kit? I had it at one time but I seem to have misplaced it when I transfered files to a new computer.ThanksBrian

Every taxiway line at the airport where I work is yellow and black. yellow by itself contrasts well on new asphalt but within a year or so the asphalt turns gray so the yellow isn't as visible. and on concrete it's even less visible.... Sooo they paint black lines on the outside of the yellow to make it more visible.Brian
