Simmershome Malta complete released
metalmike replied to simmershome's topic in General Freeware Discussions

I've only had this issue if I try to enter enroute winds while a STAR is not programmed. So basic solution: make sure you put in a STAR, or at very least an arrival runway/procedure if there are no STARs at that airport, before you start plugging wind forecasts in.

Longest Sim 737NGX Flight Without Refueling?
metalmike replied to mtrainer's topic in PMDG 737NGX | 737NGXu
Same here! It was quite a while back, so I don't remember the exact length. With almost zero weight in the back you can go quite a ways. -
Global, and maybe the landclass and vector products, is fine for the high altitude stuff. What you probably don't need are the full-fat regions.

I'm using a download manager. It's downloading, but incredibly slowly still. Been downloading Part 1 for the last four hours or so. -
fsx-ms What's Your longest Flight in FSX
metalmike replied to FSXCYYZEGLL's topic in MS FSX | FSX-SE Forum
Santiago - Sydney in the 77L, sometime last year. Clocked in somewhere between 17-18 hrs. There was a huge (100-150 kts), unexpected headwind over much of the ocean, almost twice what PFPX planned for. I suspected something might have messed up in ASN, but ASN restarts didn't change anything. Thought about diverting to Auckland for fuel, but threw the realism card out the window and chugged on. Still had about 9 tons of fuel remaining upon arrival. -
I have noticed more blurries.

It's going to be much more detailed than the 757.

FSX Steam and Level-D Installation
metalmike replied to Mike777's topic in The Level D 767 | Wilco PIC 767 Forum
Quick update, after sifting through the registered Level D forums, somebody suggested disabling windows error reporting. That seems to have worked. -
FSX Steam and Level-D Installation
metalmike replied to Mike777's topic in The Level D 767 | Wilco PIC 767 Forum
Yep, using W10. Seems futile to ask, but is there a way around those problems? I just wonder because apparently some people have this plane working? -
FSX Steam and Level-D Installation
metalmike replied to Mike777's topic in The Level D 767 | Wilco PIC 767 Forum
So I have since been able to install it and start the sim. However, the sim takes much longer to load up, and the menus are impossibly sluggish to navigate. When I finally have everything set up and hit "fly now" (after 30 minutes of click....wait....select aircraft....OK....wait..........click....select location....etc) I just have an eternal freeze. When I look in my process manager, I noticed there is a second fsx process. What is this, and maybe it's having some effect? http://puu.sh/pbzQI/b9218550a1.png -
I'm just wondering what will be in the "pro" version for P3D that won't be in the entertainment version. More systems. Aerosoft is a toy compared to this.

How to identify the correct gates used by specific airline at airports ?
metalmike replied to ozflyer's topic in Hangar Chat
The schedules yes, but not the gates, usually. Unless you're using some fancy version of flightaware that I'm not aware of -
How to identify the correct gates used by specific airline at airports ?
metalmike replied to ozflyer's topic in Hangar Chat
Mostly just for US flights though, with a few exceptions.
