  1. Folks, if you found bugs, send them over to Carenado. Their operation isn't big so things take time to get fixed but they do listen.
  2. I see, But I do recall that the NDB had 2 needles before. The green and an orange Look at the second photo closely in this topic http://www.avsim.com/topic/488515-revised-ac500-interior/ Perhaps this was an error?
  3. Isn't the green needle the NDB? there were two needles before. The NDB and the VOR2
  4. For some reason with v1.1 I am not seeing the Needle for VOR2. Anyone else have this problem?
  5. All you have to tell them is that the buttons don't have clickspots when the cockpit lights are on. Tuning knob is the only thing that works. When the cockpit lighting is off, everything works as normal. I reported this to them as well.
  6. The ADF works but when the cockpit lights are on the clickspots go away in the VC.
  7. I suggest sending Carenado a report on the autopilot because they are compiling a list of bugs to be fixed in the first SP. I was told that the Autopilot has a custom coding to break away from the FSX limitations. This is why if you push the Z key or your assigned AP on/off key it won't work.
  8. Yes, the SVG livery is a bit of an acquired taste but its one of the only Aero Commanders besides Mustique Airways that operated in the Caribbean. Here is another. Unfortunately this airline isn't around anymore but it was based out of Barbados. 8 P-BJK http://www.planepictures.net/netshow.php?id=160946 J8-MQS http://uk.flightaware.com/photos/view/959532-ad0dc7f5e36bee5b5556502605bcc17622e81365/aircrafttype/ https://flightaware.com/photos/view/959532-9f4da7945f7f368a9251772c4f92de66e3febdfd/aircraft/J8MQS/sort/votes/page/1 https://flightaware.com/photos/view/959532-87381e073d8f005956bfde2874fe2f407e162541/aircraft/J8MQS/sort/votes/page/1 Also, J6-SLU http://www.jetphotos.net/photo/6201302 http://www.pictaero.com/en/pictures/picture,32279 http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/photo/000553675.html As for the other Mustique Airways livery, if you can, try painting J8-KIM since it may be a much easier paint. http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/photo/000559389L.html https://www.flickr.com/photos/25695066@N00/4137159885
  9. Hi Folks, I was wondering if any of you talented painters would be willing to give this livery a try? http://www.jetphotos.net/photo/6196384 A google search for J8-VAY and J8-VBG will show some more detailed photos. Also, Mustique Airways is also another good livery. http://www.airplane-pictures.net/photo/645781/j8-pug-mustique-airways-aero-commander-500/ http://www.aviacioncr.net/foto.php?id=43555 As with SVG AIR, a search for J8-PUG and J8-MQS will show more photos.
  10. Quick question, 1. In this mod, will the FMA show ALTS in white to indicate that Altitude Select is armed when a new altitude is dialed in? 2. Will these mods work with the Hawker 850?
  11. Hi, I recently made the switch from FSX boxed version to FSX steam and when installing the G430/530, I got a message stating "The Windows Registry points to FSX Steam and Microsoft FSX in the same folder. This installation cannot continue until this is corrected" Any suggestions on properly fixing this problem?
  12. After setting up a flightplan, is it possible to select DTO a particular waypoint? the last time I tried this the entire flightplan disappeared.
  13. Platform: FSX/P3D Developer:iFly Aircraft: B747v2 Comment: This is definitely a great 747 product and an FX package would really take it over the top.
  14. Thanks, I sent the poster a message a few days ago but no reply...
  15. Just so we are clear, this post is only about P3D not FSX-SE. The review was on P3D which is on a completely different level to FSX-SE..
  16. Just curious, has anyone been able to integrate the ISG gauges into he PC12?
  17. Hey all, does anyone have the netjets livery for the 850?
  18. Topics like these interest me quite a bit since I honestly believe that in a few years the FS market will reach a stagnant point where we basically have all the commercial airliners we would be typically interested in. Now and in the future, business jets (if done correctly) may see a significant increase in demand when everyone is bored of the typical Airbus and Boeing avionics. Flying a 747 or 777 for 8-13 hrs can be a little boring and the options for flying shorter flights are still limited if you want a high end aircraft. As for the best business jets on the market, I think everyone has summed up the fact that Carenado has the newest products...they may not be the best products, but they certainly are new in a visual sense. I have not tried the CJ2 but I have tried the Phenom 300 and it is pretty good. The G1000 actually has more features than the Flight1 Mustang but when it comes to accuracy and overall presentation, the Mustang wins hands down. As for Eaglesoft, their CX is old but quite honestly if you can put aside the dated exterior and interior model, the systems are outstanding and way ahead of their time. Perhaps the developer or a talented enthusiast should have updated the paintkit to an HD paintkit to extend its life span until v3 comes along. If I had to recommend a product tody, my personal recommendation is the Phenom 300, Citation Mustang, ES Citation X and the Flight1 Kingair. If Ray also recommends the CJ2 then it has to be good also. Ultimately, I think that this topic would be much more productive if there were more options to select from. I am hoping that ES releases the XLS this year and maybe even the 605. If Wilco also puts out the 7X and Milviz finishes up their Avanti, B350 and Learjet 60 we will truly have a wide array of options that will more than meet our expectations. For the sake of mentioning it, It would be nice to have a realistic Learjet 45 - (let's face it...no one flies the default version and it IS the best looking learjet...) Global Express - (If the G5000 is too much to simulate, why not try the Honeywell version..that should be much easier and it would finally usher in the era of long haul business jets for FS..)
  19. Anyone still doing paints for the Phenom 300? I was wondering if anyone can give the Flexjet livery a try? Photos of these registrations can be found on google. N358FX N360FX N361FX
  20. Are the FMA indications on the PFD correct? For example, when FLC is selected, do you see the ALTS indication in white showing that ALTS is armed?
  21. Thanks for the comments guys, keep them coming. I will post a link to this topic in my review so everyone who is considering P3D can see what others think about it.
