I AM CURRENTLY 74, AND HAVE BEEN FLIGHT SIMMING SINCE 1997.

Thanks. That was the answer I was looking for. Thanks again.

How can you raise the eyepoint or view to permanently look over a 2d panel. I can raise the seat to look over the panel by pressing Ctrl and Q, but when I look out the side window views, it goes back to original view in the front panel view. I use to know the way to do it, but have since forgotten. Any help would be appreciated. czweig

Excuse my ignorance, but where can I find the MSXML Library i need to intall in order to run Runway 12, and in what folder is installed into?

I uninstalled the old Catayst drivers using the Uninstall Utillity available in the ATI website, and installed the new drivers and Control Panel. I also installed the BlueSphere textures. In my system I got a 10% increase in frame rates, plus it is more fluid. The visual quality is much better and I no longer have the shimmer in buildings and trees. I am very happy with the oversall results. The new drivers are keepers for me. Now the screenshots look like actual photos.

Hi Mark:In my computer it downloaded to Program FliesUbiSoftEagle DynamicsLock On Demo.

Hi BobL:In my AFCAD the fault finder is under the Tools menu and not the View menu. I am using AFCAD211.

Also, if you made any changes in the parking spots using AFCAD, bring up the airport in AFCAD and under tools, use the fault finder to find and correct any faults found.

Hi Ulisses:I have a high end system and have AI traffic set at 50 percent, and never fly into an empty airport with ultimate traffic. I fly alot in Central and South America and see airlines like Varig, Lacsa, Taca Peru, Copa Airlines, and many others. How is the weather in Brazil?

In today's downloads is an FS9 utility called Ground2k4V5.1 by Christian Fumey. Can anyone tell me a little more about what this utility does in FS9? I read the readme file, but it does not tell me much about it.

Try this to see if it helps.Press and hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys. While still holding them down, press the Num Lock key in the number pad to turn off the green light above the number pad. Continuing to hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys, press the 8 key or the 2 key in the number pad to adjust your landing lights.I hope this helps you.

When I start FSMeteo, under Options, I check DISABLE WIND TRANSITIONS, and I have not had that problem again. I know this is a workaround, but it works for me.

Luigi:Be sure you start FS2004 first, then press the Alt and Enter keys and then minimize FS2004. Then open FSMeteo and use downloaded weather and wait until it finishes loading. Then click on FS2004 in the minimized toolbar and press the Alt and Enter yeys together to get it back in full screen mode. Works for me.

Peter Dowson is a magician. I know he says that FSUIPC does not affect FS2004 in many ways, but after installing his new version of FSUIPC I am now able to use the Alt Enter keys to get into windowed mode and minimize, and am now able to go back to full window mode without getting the black screen. Thank you Peter for your great work.I have also increased my frame rates without doing anything other than install the new FSUIPC.dll in my modules folder. Go figure.

Still have both on two seperate drives. Sometimes I fly the 767 PIC and other aircraft that do not function in FS9. With 240 gigs of hard drive space, I will probably keep it for a while.

Hi Turbinator:Please e-mail me, and I will help [email protected]

I tried to fly a Cessna 172SP from Norfolk,VA (KORF) to Richmond, VA (KRIC) this morning with real weather. No luck, the high wind gusts kept flipping my aircraft over on the taxiway. Looks like I am grounded for a while.

Mike Stone's Aerostar 700 is one of my favorites, and it is free.

I forgot to mention that you must be holding down the Ctrl an Shift keys when you turn off the Num Lock in the keypad otherwise it won't work. Keep holding down the Ctrl an Shift keys and press number 8 or 2 in the keypad. You can also center the light beam by using the 4 or 6 keys. Good luck.

I also had very bright taxi and landing lights. I corrected it by pressing the Ctrl and Shift keys, turning off the Num Lock key in the number pad and simultaniasly pressing the number 2 key or the number 8 key while also holding down the Ctrl and Shift keys. . This lowers and raises the landing lights, but I found out it also lowered the intensity. I hope it works for you also.

I find that if I minimize FS2004 while I am still in the setup screen and minimize, I can start FSMeteo or any othe program and be able to go to full screen on FS2004 without any problem. If I press the "GO FLY" button and try to minimize FS2004 while at full screen by pressing Alt Enter and minimizing, I can no longer get it back to full screen, but get the black screen also.I know this is a workaround, but it works for me.If anyone has a better solution, please post it. We would all be greatful.

Hi Alaister;Yes there is a gameport to USB connector. (Picture attached) Maybe your old driver will work, otherwise you may need to download a new driver.

Hi again Mike:I hope you did not over-ride the original Traffic030528.bgl file when you added the new PAI files for Southwest. To check, right click on this file and check properties. The file should be 13.8MB. If it is much smaller, you will have to get the original Traffic030528.bgl back. Let me know if you need any further help at:[email protected]

Hi Mike:This is what I did, and I have lots of traffic.I created two additional traffic.bgl files using the new TTools.One for all the traffic I had in FS2002. I named it Traffic.bglThe second one was for all the AI aircraft in Ultimate Traffic. I named it Traffic2.bglTraffic.030528.bgl was the original FS9 traffic.bgl file which is located in Flight simulator 9SceneryWorldScenery. I left it there, and added the two Traffic.bgl files from above into the same Scenery folder, and now I have lots of traffic. You can have many traffic.bgl files in this folder as long as they are named differently with no problems, and they all create AI traffic with no problems. Hope that helps you.

On several aircraft that I have transferred from FS2002 to FS9 the prop is not visable. Is the prop a part of the Model.mdl or is there a way to correct this. Any suggestions appreciated.
