Version three is out! Could not wait for the anouncement. I really like it!

Welcome to: Virtual International Flying Club (VIFC) The Virtual International Flying Club is not a Virtual Airline. We are a virtual flying Club that offers to the flight simulation enthusiast of the age of 17 years old or older, the opportunity to enjoy Virtual Flight via automated tracking systems, rosters, and pilot reports, while making links with people from the whole world. Fly for fun and friendship is our goal. To achieve this mission, VIFC, offer you various flying activities and will promote multi-player sessions to establish and maintain contacts and friendship between the members. The Flying Club will also offer to its members all kinds of activities, including Air Traffic Control, Search and Rescue group missions, free flights solo or in groups, cross country flights, or charter flights on a solo basis, or on simple flight schedules, or no schedules at all. You may pop on the internet and see who is flying, and simply join in. Nobody will ever be told that this is a private flight. Everyone is ALWAYS welcome. We now have a new section called VASARA. This stands for Virtual Aviation Search and Rescue Association. It is equivalent to the CASARA association in real life. Here you can participate in emergency alerts and participate in Search and Rescue Missions. More details are available on our website and all files needed are also available. The virtual home base is located in Vancouver British Columbia, Canada with hubs at Bolzano, Italy and Fort Myers, Florida USA. Home base airports , and hubs , were selected because they offer all types of flying activities with many aircraft models: bush flying, float planes, mountain flying, jet flying, etc. However, you may fly out of your own base if you wish. Every pilot will be able to fly the way he enjoys flying. We also offer to our members the use of a dedicated Teamspeak server for communications and four multiplayers FSD servers for multiplayers sessions. You will be able to use our livery files, if you wish. You may participate in out ranking system. You can be a member even if you are participating in a Virtual Airline (VA). You can transfer your previous flying hours from VA’s, but you would need to provide accurate URL’s of that site for our review of all information necessary to verify your flight time. We are not a virtual airline. Everything you do here is in addition to, or instead of a virtual airline. We suggest that you have Teamspeak software on your system, to communicate with other members of the club. We are VATSIM approved. If you do not have a VATSIM ID, we suggest that you get one, but it is not mandatory to be a Vatsim member. You may fly any plan, flight, or time you want. Our ‘Flight Planning’ section of the website has many suggested flights. Our Activities section will suggest many different flying activities to our members. Among suggested activities, we offer Air Traffic control group sessions, weekly group flights, Search and Rescue group missions, cross countries and charter flights. Our flight board and our Vasara flight board will also offer you various flights. Or you may simply get online and fly nowhere or somewhere with or without a partner. Beginner or novice. There is a place here for you! http://www.flyvifc.o...0/welcome.shtml

Both. Missing numbers on all default planes, and the compass on some non-default planes.

And today, I noticed missing compass on some of my non-default planes. I have installed a Carenado plane lately, and it is fine. I have no idea as to where to start.

Thanks for your input Ben. I think the GTX 660 NON ti might fit the bill and budget here. I now have an ATI X1300, so anything will be an improvement.

I have just built a new computer using the Intel i5. Looking at the specs fot this videocard it would seem that it is the best bang for the buck. Is that so? Any help is appreciated.

I just find that the pages are WAY to slow loading. So slow that I usually go to another site and not visiting Avsim at all. Used to be my first choice.

Game Booster is not "a gimmick" to all people. It has been the only way that I have found to make FSX enjoyable and not a slide show. I have a moderate computer and it works very well for me.

Study the control functions of a real helicopter a bit. Then go to Hovercontrol.com. Chances are, if you do not know how a helicopter works, you will not understand the computer control equivalent functions. Such as, in a helicopter you lift the collective to go up. In the computer, you will advance the throttle slider which is used as a collective. Not the throttle. Sounds confusing. But is is not really. Most folks jump into the Jetranger and try to fly it without any research. Then they get frustrated and quit. Do a little research, then fly NOTHING for 30 days or so. You will get the hang of it.

I found that if I just drag it to the center and shut it down, it will be there when I restart.

Check out this link:http://flightsimonline.com/Milton and team website. Lot of information here.

Are you sure the file name is right? I put that in Google search and found several converted Barons, with a similar file name. Is this an FSX plane?

Or is weather downloading every 15 minutes or so?
