Really nice shots there Scandinavian 407, & that cockpit view is so good, the detail around the window is excellent... Cheers, Dave.

Hi math341c, I have both FSBuild & vroute premium, and to be honest I find that I use vroute more than FSBuild, as vroute premium can create & export flightplans for many aircraft including the PMDG ones directly from the planning tab & this is the main reason that I use it, I think a trial version is available for download. Kind regards, Dave.

I wouldn't get too concerned 'bout the flightsim coverage from the networks, if MH370 is still missing a week from now, the whole story will most probably have slipped out of the hourly/daily updates anyway. As of the last few years I no longer watch either CNN or Sky news, no mattter what event is been covered, as I found that sensationalism was the main driving force behind coverage, trying to draw in extra revenue for the advertisers by sucking in more viewers. In my opinion, the biggest danger to simming is probably a lack of interest/awareness in the general populace, leading to fewer developments in the area long term, maybe because people dont have the time, interest, or concentration to spend an hour or more with the sim, rather than spending a few seconds on FB playing angry B's & then switching to something else. Regards, Dave.

Good story there 3mta3, it sounds like touch & go's in a jet are the business! Regards, Dave.

Hi guys, Just following the story with regards to the disapeareance of MH370 and I came across this sensible & interesting blog post from Chris Goodfellow. I think it helps to cut through all the conspiracy theories out there in the media & cyberspace. Below is a link to the post.

Well done Tom. Its good to have Avsim back up & running... Felt like I had given it up for Lent! Well done Tom. Its good to have Avsim back up & running... Felt like I had given it up for Lent!

Hey Moumout, Maybe you could try a Western Union money transfer or other similar company, or perhaps contact a bank, but beware of the charges involved. All the best, Dave

Not out yet...

I am so sorry to hear that about you Dad,Our condolences, & God Bless,Regards,Dave.

Hi Skinsalon,Good stuff!Glad to hear it worked, This is the way I get it to go...dunno why as well, but hey, it goes! Thats what matters!Cheers,Dave.

Hi Skinsalon,I had a similar problem with RC as well.For me what cured it was to ensure that I went through the various screens each time I wanted to use RC. Loading up the flightplan, then checking out the Controller info screen, followed by the General screen & then keyboard & voices where I usually left 'em at the default settings. I still follow this process today, but for the main 'in sim' RC selection keys, I have 'em prefixed with the CTRL key so as not to confuse the LDS 767 fuel filling chappie, who seems to work of the same actual digit choices. Sometimes the little RC menu box does not appear when I run RC & FSX, so I usually exit back to the free flight menu and exit outa RC and then re run RC, get set up as above and run the flight on FSX. RC always works then for me the second time around if it fails to run on the 1st time. excellent program though, looking forward to V5.Cheers,Dave.

Hi Guys,Thanks for the help,Cheers,Dave.

Oops! I meant to say how to import a flight plan created in FSBuild, for use with Radar Contact?Any advice is much appreciated.Cheers,Fisky1.

Hi Guys,Just a quick question, I dont know if this has been covered before, but how does one convert/import a flight plan created in FSBuild for use with the Level D (FSX) 767?Any advice is much appreciated.Cheers,Fisky1.

Thanks Guys for the advice,But I've decided I am going to give acceleration a little more time, 'cause I want to double check that all payware planes are patched up to date, and installed correctly.Cheers,Fisky1.
