How to get GA traffic when using AIG
ricka47 replied to Phantoms's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Yeah, that's why I keep the percentage low just to avoid empty small airports. -
I don't think that money and progression can carry over from NF3 since that system has been changed. At least, that's not what I read in Discord. They will be adding aircraft and other features over time though. Starting over from scratch has been fun for me so far. I'm getting to know the 152 very well!

I've been using it for a few days and it's great!

On the very small ones, I have to have a small percentage of ground aircraft just so they aren't so barren. -
FSHud - Air Traffic Control MSFS Beta

I just did it through the Flight One site. There was an option to request a refund. -

I tried this when it first came out and never had it working properly. I want to tray again from scratch - is there a step-by-step guide somewhere? -

It's right above your choices of what you can do. When you're in the air or taxiing, it will point in the direction that you should go and tell you how far you need to go. When you should be stopped (on the ground) there is a little stop sign there. -

Thanks - I have a longer one in my "box-of wires" in the garage! -
FSHud - Air Traffic Control MSFS Beta

Yeah, after purchasing and then returning, I felt the same way. I kept asking myself, "how is this better than default?" The answer was always that it was not better, just different and actually provided less, in some areas, than the default ATC. -

Honeycomb Yoke Buttons Randomly Unresponsive

Well. I think I may have my answer. I pushed in both ends of the cable that connects to yoke to the panel and I think it is OK! -

There is a little arrow that shows the direction that you should be heading. It's not as handy as the arrows on the runway but is probably more realistic. -
TRAFFIC IN SIGHT from SOUTH OAK CO : a new gem!
ricka47 replied to David Roch's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I really wish they would release this and the bird ones in larger geographic areas (i.e.bundles). -
Beech 18 available in Marketplace!
ricka47 replied to Todd2's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
That is true. I've had many Carenado aircraft over the years as they look good and have enough complexity for my tastes. But, if something is wrong, it often stays wrong for a long time or forever. Like one of their MSFS aircraft that I got in the marketplace (I don't remember which one), if you use a specific (red?) livery, the tablet can't be made visible. After a long time, that still hasn't been fixed.
