You'll find some in this long thread:http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=36607&page=1Now - if anyone can point me to a working link for an Isles of Scilly Skybus repaint I'd be very happy......Stuart

Thanks very much, lamont, vulcan & kingair315 for your helpful replies. I'm sure that the remaining stutters can be resolved on my system with more time to fiddle so I shall go ahead with FSNav. SIDS & STARS are not an immediate issue anyway (given my current level of ignorance) and from what you say I can see that they're not likely to be very significant for the majority of flying I do.Thanks for pointing me at the FSNav forum - most useful.I'm very impressed by the loyalty people show to FSNav - even in the face of the support difficulties of late. That say's a lot for a product's inherent quality.

New poster here, looking to step up from years of casual simming to a slightly more thoughtful approach (as typified by members of this forum - thanks for all the information I've gleaned from browsing it).I'm about to buy FSNavigator, but I'd appreciate views on a couple of points:1) Is there any other source from which I can download the file of SIDS/STARS for FSNavigator? I'm aware of the support rumours, and the difficulty that the author has had in providing support for some months, but www.fsnavigator.com has been down all week so I'm worried this may be more than just a Christmas outage. And can I download a file without using the FSNavigator update option to do it? (My internet connection is not on my FS9 machine)?2) When I open the trial version of FSNavigator (4.6) from FS9 I get short but regular stutters in the sim (jerky frames, sound "burps" etc) that seem to correspond to the moving map update interval, whichever page is displayed. This happens even when using settings that allow FS9 to run between 50-70fps in a window - the average framerate display oscillates quite a lot. The effect is reduced if I set a lowish maximum framerate, but is (oddly) more pronounced when FSNavigator is set to replace the sim window than when I undock FSNavigator and run it on a second monitor! I've reduced the effect to a tolerable level but would like to solve it completely before I buy the app. My 20 free sessions are expiring fast, so can anyone suggest where I should concentrate my investigations?I have tried alternatives like FS Commander, SFP etc but FSNavigator feels like the right solution for me. I could use a networked laptop and WideFS etc with alternative apps, but would rather not. Surely FSNavigator runs very smoothly for most people or it wouldn't be so popular?My system is a Dell P2.8, 512Mb, nVidia Ti4600. Not new, but quite respectable! I run FSUIPC (registered) to manage home-made pedals on the gameport (and Active Sky in offline mode) but no other background/ancilliary programs.Just bought Misty Fjords. Stunning! FSNavigator is intended to help me find all those cabins (and, at risk of offending the purists, to fly the plane from time to time while I just look out of the window :-)Thanks. A very happy New Year to all.
