Thanks guys... the venetubo worked. Not sure what it tweaked but I'm no longer the 8th generation stealth airliner.

I just purchased and installed NGX. Everything looks and works great from virtual cockpit... but if I go to an outside view the aircraft is invisible but leaves a shadow on the ground. Anything illuminated by lights is there (the tail and windows) but the rest of the aircraft is like Harvey the Giant Invisible Rabbit. Any ideas out there?Thanks,Joel

Tried that, no success. Still no device listed in FS9. FSX and everyother application runs fine. Tried that too, no success. Still baffled, Microsoft Tech Support is equally baffled. I'll probably have to delete everything again... I get tired of this. Every time I change monitors or update drivers FS9 gets stupid on me.

How do you get FS9 to "re-find" the graphics device? None are listed for selction in FS9 graphics options. This has happened before and I've always simply deleted it and reinstalled FS9. Is there a way to get FS9 to re-learn the available graphics devices?JoelIntel Core 2 Quad 2x GeForce 8800GT 1gb2x 1TB hard drives

Thanks, I'll do that. I thought the C40 was the 737-800, I read that on a site yesterday. But that could have been wrong.

I'm looking for a USAF C-40 repaint of the 737-800. Does anyone know of one?Thanks,

I've been looking for a sim that does the B52 justice. So far haven't found one. Any suggestions/links?Thanks,Joel

What? Actually read manuals and fly tutorials? I'm far too impatient for that. :) In all honesty, I did begin a tutorial but RC seemed so user friendly I stopped and just began flying.

118.80 worked like a charm. Shouldn't RC tell you what freqs in its little box when you're using FSS?

Just looked at those pages... hey, it is in there. Thanks for the clarification. I now understand the difference between FL (use standard) and altitude in feet (use BP/QNH).

Thank you for the additional information. Everything seems to work just fine for the larger airports. All worked fine when I left Cork and returned to Truro. I'll try to avoid the small airfields. Maybe this will help matters. I understand that you could not possibly include every permutation of comms in your great program. Thanks again,

In the next version of RC may I suggest adding a confirmation if a pilot accidentally selects a number that will automatically close RC. For example, if you accidentally select Cancel Flight Plan while airborne, the controller cheerfully says OK! and closes RC. A simple, "please confirm" would alleviate accidental closing of RC. This applies to any selection that closes RC.

Ok, I know I've seen this somewhere before. Can you explain the difference? Right now I've got this controller chattering away at me to watch my altitude... assigned is FL70 and I'm at 7000ft. My QNH is set correctly and still there's a never ending warning about my altitude. It's a cardinal sin but I've chosen to simply ignore this guy.I searched the manual and can't find any reference to the difference.

Ok, tried the CENTER freq (118.77) to no avail. I still have 1-FSS WX, 4-CLR by FSS, and Main-0 listed but nothing happens when I press any of them. I know these used to work but the last time I was at a small airfield and remember them working was about 2 months ago when I was in Australia.

That's interesting. I looked on the controller page in RC and there aren't any FSS freqs listed. Wait... is CENTER the FSS frequency? I didn't try that one. (see, I'm new at this) Also, I cannot get to the extended menu (9). When I press it nothing happens, so I cannot select direct next checkpoint.
