How about the CSS 733/4/5? Andy

Tried to install 0.7.9 - informed me I needed .net 7.0.4 but the link I was sent to only has 7.0.2 which I already have. Then tried to install 0.7.8 - informed I needed to update my SD app to v6.0 - I already have 6.1.0.18521. Grateful for any hints as to how to proceed. Cheers, Andy

As far as I'm aware it's always been an issue that Voxscript won't accept a command like 'flaps twenty'. 'Flags up' and 'flaps down' seems to be OK. Is there any chance that this can be fixed? Andy

Same here...it's a complete pain in the proverbial. I've reinstalled every voicpack I have, but it still does it. Andy

Cheers, Gerald. Andy

Brilliant. Don't I need to copy fsinsider.dll somewhere within \FS9?? Andy

Hi, I have both FSX and FS9 co-existing happily on the same machine, and MCE is installed for FSX. Is there anyway to be able to install it to and use it with FS9 on the same box? I suspect not, but I'd be interested in a definitive answer. I don't believe it would breach the license terms since there would only be one instance in use at a time. Cheers, Andy

Were you under the GS? Usual procedure for any ILS interception is to capture the LOC first while you're well under the GS and only select APP once the LOC is captured. Check the manual for AFDS operation and the following is helpful. http://www.smartcockpit.com/download.php?path=docs/&file=B737-Automatic_Flight_Systems_Summary.pdf What are the Flight Mode Annunciators on the ADI reading when you're intercepting the ILS? Without more info or a screenshot, it's hard to know what you're doing wrong. Andy

Both NAV radios set to the ILS freq, both course read outs set to the inbound ILS heading per the FMS approach page, APP set on the AFDS and both A and B autopilots selected. Andy

The nav radios default to AUTO mode for INS updating - select the AUTO button to manual and you should be fine. Andy

...which is the command to, er, disconnect the GPU. Except that when I try it, following a successful "cockpit to ground dialogue", the only word that's recognised is "Disc" as in the power lever setting. Accordingly, the command to the ground crew is never delivered and I have to remove it manually. I'm probably missing something fundamental, somwhat am I doing wrong? This is with 1.5 BTW. Andy

I was referring to the PRO version replacing the panel.cfg rather than FS2Crew. The PRO install overwrites whatever panel.cfg you had before the install. One effect being that there are now no longer any FS2Crew entries. The PRO version is released...I'm flying it now. My question remains; does 1.3 work for the PRO version in FSX:SE without modification? Andy

…and what about FSX or FSX:SE with the PRO version of the Q400? Hardly surprising, but the install replaces the old panel.cfg, taking out the FS2Crew entries. I could just reinstall the panel.cfg entries but I'm a bit reluctant since there is so much that has changed from the PILOT version. Andy

Dave, thanks for your work. Just an observation, not a criticism - in reality, the sound through headsets used by flight deck crews to talk to ground engineers is far less distorted than this given that the other end is plugged directly into the flight deck audio. It's broadcast audio and far clearer than ground to air comms. I was doing this in the 80s talking to RAF transport crews, and I would imagine the technology is far better now. Cheers, Andy

It does make you wonder why anybody actually asks for any advice. Andy
