I have one light switch in the kitchen that sometimes flips my fuses off, couldn't find why. I tend not to use it when I do something on my PC. :)Greg Furmanski

Should be press :), was writing that on my mobile browser and it autofilled it this way for some reason. Grzegorz Furmanski

Instead of selecting departure and sid enter airport code as first waypoint. This way you won't even have to choose runway. As for selecting this waypoint pews the lsk twice, that should do it.Grzegorz Furmanski.

In file library search for pmdg flex. excel chart with everything you need.Greg

Start locks: press shut down engine button and when RPM passes 50% put throttles in reverse. I think you have problem because you put them in reverse first but that's just my guess.Grzegorz Furmanski

Aren't landing lights on front gear in this aircraft? That would make them useless when the gear is up. I thought that's why You have conspiciuos lights on until 10 000 feet.Greg

What I have noticed for sure is no blurries around me when flying low and slow. Also I have FAA set to 8S and 16x anisotropic filtering, which I couldn't set with radeon. So there's real improvement over 4850. I could also push my CPU to around 3.8GHz but my memory won't run at that.Edit: after deleting fsx.cfg framerates went up quite a lot. in default trike over manchester from 45 to 70Greg

Just did that, swapped 4850 for GTX460. Running FSX at 720p on 42" LCD, intel [email protected] 4GB RAM.Most noticable difference: textures loading much faster, haven't noticed any of the usual tile swapping (from lower res to higher), everything nice and crisp. As far as FPS are concerned, I think I gained a few, but not many. But there's almost no difference when changing weather from fair to rainy, FPS stays the same, on 4850 it was going down.Overall I'd say it's a big improvement, especially to IQ if not FPS.Greg

I never install anything in in program files folder.The addon itself is good, but there is few post on their forums with problem I described and in NONE of them the creator of FSP responded. Also quite a few people been asking for serial numbers via email and complaining that there's no answer. I've not visited it for some time now as I stopped using FSP, so maybe it got better. But last time I was there any questions about support from the author were answered by forum moderators, and it was always: he's busy. Grzegorz Furmanski

You don't want to do that, especially if using Vista. I and many others had problems with authorization under Vista. It registered fine and then in the middle of flight it said that I stole the program and it's going to end. Only solution is to reinstall, but how many times do you want to do that?And there's virtually no support, the guy who made it is always too busy to answer forum questions, the only support you get is from other users. But FS Flight Keeper is great.Grzegorz Furmanski

Mine is Saitek. I've also noticed that if I move it slowly enough it won't send any input to my PC, I checked it in calibration screen. And when the damn thing goes to sleep sometimes pressing buttons in not enough to connect it to PC, have to pull out the battery. But when it's working OK I can't say a bad word about it, if only it did all the time.Grzegorz Furmanski

I belive that if final trim is 27.1 on weigh sheet that's what you're suppose to set on trim wheel. There's a scale just next to it. Greg

For last few weeks I had issues with JS41 AP disconnecting quite often. I calibrated the joystick numerous times, adjusted deadzones and still no improvement. But today it was a complete disaster. First during taxi brakes and rudder weren't responding all the time and then when I was on approach to Rome at 4000 feet, capturing localizer and suddenly AP disconnected and aircraft went to violent roll. I managed not to crash (by about 100 feet) and landed safely. The Flight Keeper reported max bank angle 154 max descent 18 000 fpm and max pitch 34 degrees. The reason: stupid wireless joystick. In calibration it wasn't responding as it should until I removed and put in the wireless dongle for it. Besides, to save battery the bloody thing goes to sleep after couple minutes of inactivity, then you have to either press a button or move it quite vigorously. It seemed like a good idea not to have cables across my living room when I fly, as my little kid just loves to pull anything out of USB port, but now it just makes me want to throw this stupid thing out of window.Grzegorz Furmanski

To clarify: I was flying the aircraft and I had the comms. In RC I have holding set to weather. The manual says that when ATC contacts me and wants me to hold I can choose between holding pattern and delay vectors. Weather at destiniation was bad so I think I was being held. After all this vectors from ATC he told me "that wasn't so hard" or something very similar.My question is: could he give me instruction to fly certain heading for a number of miles or certain time and then to head back without further instructions? I just want to know if I missed something.
