  1. Guys I am currently setting up a few things on FSX that involve transporting the US President. I have improved scenery for the white house and Washington, secret service and motorcade at Andrews and the South lawn. Airforce One is sorted by way of PMDG 747 and the repaint, as is Airforce Two with Captain sims 757 and the Mcphat repaint. However one thing eludes me.....I need a model and repaint of Marine One helicopter. I am aware that a repaint is available for the FSX acceleration pack, however I do not have this and therefore I am looking for a freeware model and repaint. Any ideas? Would you happen to know if the following payware model will work with this FS9 repaint. http://www.hovercont...=0&y=0&bool=and Payware - http://www.fspilotsh...roducts_id=2909Thanks in advanceRich
  2. Thought I'd share some shots of ORBX and OZX scenery which has meant Australia flying is now my favorite.OZX and ORBX teaming up! This was my first visit and i was amazed!On duty!OutbackHere will do nicely!Better eat the bananas then!Comments, as ever, welcome! :D Rich
  3. Hi everyone, wanted to post some shots of my new tail dragger from Carenado. Please enjoy and comments are always welcome. I've been working on sorting out some good looking water just of late.CheersRich
  4. Just some shots I thought i'd share with you.Thanks for viewing - comments welcome as ever.Rich
  5. Thank you! Some hugely valuable information there! I particularly like the idea of timing the 10 degree deviation to gain distance to the VOR without DME equipment. Maybe the old Cessna might get used again after all!Rich
  6. Thank you very much! Got it in one!
  7. There was barely time to look out the window however with my flight plan taking me close to some restricted airspace.As you can see I had to do a lot in 30 mins!If anyone wants to try this flight feel free to ask for the plan. I had to avoid the dangerous airspace and the training zone to the south west. I picked up the A303 and headed over to Stone henge before landing at Boscombe airport.Oh and the weather decided to try and distract me also!Picking up the A303 with Stone henge just over the motorway barrier.Thanks for viewing........if anyone has any Plan G flightplans that were particular memorable, could you let me have them?Rich
  8. My apologies Chris! I will put them up now! I made the mistake of copying this post from Mutley Hanger forum.Link to screenshots of flight ------> http://forum.avsim.net/topic/337375-sightseeing/ that even sounds busy!!Rich
  9. Hi everyone,Today I flew my first VFR flight using the Plan G flight planner and it is excellent! The software enabled me to use a very complicated flight plan which meant I would be triangulating my position three times in the space of 30 mins during a little sightseeing trip over Stone Hedge. It also meant I knew when I would be over particular roads etc....very detailed and so satisfying when you see that road pop up on the horizon and your VFR skills worked! (screenshots of flight in screenshot forum)That brings me onto something else. I did try to plan a triangulation from different VOR's but when I got in the sim, the VORs bought about the barber pole in the OBS display meaning they weren't working. Do all the VORs in Plan G work in FSX? Also I am looking for a nice payware VFR aircraft (possibly from Carenado) that would enable me to triangulate, that is to say contain two Nav radios and two OBS dials. And possibly with DME equipment also. Could anyone make a suggestion?How does a VFR aircraft with no DME and only one Nav radio triangulate??Thanks in advance!Rich
  10. That is the aerosoft Airbus X, still learning it myself!Rich
  11. Hi everyone,please enjoy these shots and any comments are always welcome and I particularly like knowing which shots you guys like and why.Enjoy!'Pulled over''the rock''little strip''heli''In the cruise''on the ground in Canberra''company''holding short''ILS'Rich

  13. Hopefully someone can help me.I am trying to fly a star with my pic 737.the last part of my star requires me to fly a specific heading for a specific distance before turning to intercept the localiser.the intersection where I make my turn has no frequency etc so how can I measure the distance I have travelled using the dme equipment so I know when to make my turn to intercept?I tried tuning to the run way ils but this figure increases as I start to head away from the airport.Thanks rich
  14. Hello guys, I have just started to understand how to fly a STAR well and also SIDS.SIDS I have the hang of completely now but STARS are a little harder.Radar Contact is also causing me some problems in that it selects the active runway but I have to request an IAP approach to the runway I have planned my STAR for. So on final I have aircraft sometimes head at me on the runway!Does VOX ATC cater for STARS better?Also how do you choose a STAR when you dont know which runway will be in use at the arrival airport?Thanks RIchExtra Note - there are two things I don't understand when reading the VOX website,Does VoxATC X control MSFS AI trafficNo, VoxATC generates its own AI aircraft based on FS traffic aircraft. Traffic sliders for airline and GA traffic should be set to 0 % in FS.What would happen to all my beloved World of AI??A SID or STAR are not being assigned although they are defined for a flightBefore loading a flight with a SID or a STAR, load a different flight. When that flight has loaded, load the flight with SID and/or STAR. This is because MSFS makes a copy of the relevent files for the last flight you made. If you reload that flight it will load the copy and the association between the flight name and the defind SIDs and STARs will be lost. If you load another flight first this does not happen.What?? lolThanks
  15. Can anyone recommend a good quality carrier......payware or freeware.Rich
