I have pause on my x52 stick, mostly for screenshots - use in the cockpit seems to depend on the aircraft, some things are clickable on some models but not all.

Nice fix Steve, thanks.

Bill has a Trinidad update (man. press./fuel flow gauge) on the Lionheart site, Trinidad page.

I've been informed that a 'manifold pressure' gauge will be part of a forthcoming update.

The VC is as advertised except for nothing indicating manifold pressure. The FS2004 version had the correct gauge. The closeup clarity is excellent and it all works and no, this is for FSX/FSX Steam/the various P3D's.

Another Trinidad purchaser, in spite of Bill's disclaimer about DX10. He was correct. Switching to DX9 eliminates the glass distortion but, in a screenshot, the jaggies are impressive. This was an FS9 model but Bill says it's a complete rebuild. Interestingly, none of his FSX original planes have a problem with DX10. Completely OT but has anyone found a 'manifold pressure' gauge?

Intrigued by your avatar. I too was class of '81 - Anchorage Tracon.

You and I are on the same page - owned four aircraft over the years so I'm fairly caught up on the nuts and bolts stuff and, with over 6000 hours flying them and others, my airmanship is fairly good. Those of you who enjoy all these "extras" in the package should enjoy them but a few of us would prefer them a little 'leaner'.

Saw the video and bought the plane. Would have much preferred a version without the 'Accusim' - strictly a marketing tool but cleverly done. For those of us with a bit of A&P and/or CFI the word 'superflous' comes to mind.

Looks like the problem wasn't with the Orbx forum. Holger Sandman posted that clicking Ctrl+F5 while on the forum will reset it and you're back in business. Worked for me.

I saw you were back on - still no joy for me though.

Both J.K. and N. Cooper have acknowledged the problem - working on it - still exists.

Got the same problem, since yesterday. Unable to post, reply, quote etc - can still PM members and, according to my profile, am not in 'bad boy' status.

When I load up any Fairchild, it opens with a glimpse of nav light on the exterior and a couple of knobs on the VC. The engine sound is nice but otherwise nothing. I know it's there but I can't see it.
