NAVRAD

It never recovered. I had to abandon the flight. Ground speed and DTG to next waypoint froze too!

Hello all Flying from EGGW-LPPT, at FL370. During the cruise approximately a quarter of the flight completed, there was no forward motion. I could descend, climb, turn using LNAV and HDG SEL in fact everything else was working, but no forward aircraft motion. The only thing I noticed that was different was the contrails were swirling like clouds around the underside of the fuselage and around the engines. Never seen this before. Any ideas? Thank you Alan W

Issue resolved simply by selecting the 'show opening screen' as suggested earlier so thank you all for your help. That's another issue ticked off the list! Thanks Alan

Hi Sorry I misunderstood you. I'll have a look now. Thank you Alan

Hi Thanks,I know what I've done now after seeing your screenshot, only problem is this window doesn't appear when FS loads! Regards Alan

Thank you I'll have a look and post my findings. Regards Alan

Hello I don't know how this has happened but the FSX start screen (the one where you choose your flight/aircraft/time and season etc) has disappeared! When I start FSX now the splash screen appears and then FS loads and starts at my default flight. Any ideas what may have happened and how I can rectify this issue? Thanks Alan W

Hello Dave Thanks for your reply. I've resolved it now simply by changing the console=1 to console=0 in the simconnect.ini file. Found that on this forum after I'd posted last night. Cheers Alan

Hello all For whatever reason, whenever I start FSX a 'Simconnect diagnostic' window opens and stays open with fast scrolling text. I can't close this window other than to end the programme with the task manager. When I do FSX crashes and each time the crash is caused by a different .dll file. I don't know how this happened so if anyone has any ideas how to cure it that would be good. Thank you. Regards Alan Hi all I've just found a post with exactly the same issue-looks like an easy fix!? Regards Alan

Hello all Not sure where I should post this but I thought a good place to start-I'll be happy to be pointed in the right direction to the appropriate forum! Does anyone know if Cockpit-for-You is still in business? I've bought several gauges from them and I have a very small issue, but after trying for some time, I am not getting any response to me e-mails. Just wondering if anybody had any news? Regards Alan W

Ok knew it wouldn't be long. Clicking on the icon does nothing but alt and enter maximises the window. It doesn't answer the question why it minimises in this way though. I haven't changed any setting so still a bit of a mystery. Thanks htuna Regards Alan W

Hi As soon as it happens again, which I suspect will be soon, I will post straight away. Regards Alan

Thank you Regards Alan

Hello all Urgent because I have someone coming to fly the sim and a new issue has appeared. FSX splash screen appears after I start the programme then disappears never to be found although it continues to load. I checked in task manager and shows it running. Can't open by clicking on the icon in the task bar either. Any suggestions welcome. Thank you Regards Alan W

I believe I tracked the issue to the pot for the steering tiller. Well not the pot exactly as it is brand new. The steering tiller handle is heavier than the device it is connected to (home made) and when released I'm sure this is moving the pot by the very small corresponding 'veer left' movement when landing. Off to hone my engineering skills now and put it right. Thanks for all the advice/suggestions. Regards. Alan
