LivToAir have released an update on 20, July, bringing their Cessna CJ3+ to version 1.021 which fixes the flickering maps on the EFB as well as flickering engine fire switches.

Currently, the CJ3+ is available at the inibuilds store under "Promotions" at a redzced pricetag of USD 19.23.

Throttle calibration and detents are in the EFB.

I never get tired of buzzing the Big Apple. Just love those lights, clouds and the feeling of "being there".

Hard to imagine 😊 It's a quick workaround until a fix is provided. A simple double tap on a knob on my joystick and it's off.

To cancel the master warning sound switch to outside view and back into cockpit view and then it can be cancelled.

I prefer the Pipistrel Virus for sightseeing. Great view from the cockpit.

Fantastic pics!

Hi Aharon, great pics. When I was a kid, I had a poster of a CP DC-10 on my wall. Brings back nice memories. Later, Wardair and Canadian were among my favorites.

Thank you guys! P.S: I forgot to mention I also added Integrated Simavionics EHSI to this bird and replaced the original FMC with the one from the ISG Suite. Greetings from LOWG, Werner

My new toy -Virtualcol ATR 72-500 + LOWG Manfred Marbler freeware, ASN +REX Soft Clouds:

Hi guys, finally I got my Tom Ruth A330 package pimped with Jose Revueltas Airbus grey VC textures and Ernie Alstons Integrated Simavionics ISG1 Airbus gauges. Heres´s what it looks like now (love the night lighting):

Unfortunately I too have problems with the new DC-10 HD as it seems to load a heavy burden on video ram, even though my FSX settings are far from highest. After a short while, the vc-textures fail to show and cannot be brought back by changing views or switching between 2d and 3d panels. My rig has 8 gigs of ram and 1 gig of video ram. BTW, has anyone tried to (or managed to) install the INS update, that is offered by Just Flight and CLS for their DC-10 v1 onto this new version? Regards from LOWG, Werner

Absolutely smashing! Fly PIA to the golden arches

Great shots, specially the BA ones! Werner

Well, I guess the pilots will be sellling toothbrushes or vaccum cleaners after that incident

Great shots, looking very realistic! Love your Austrian 747 on the short hop to LHZR. Unfortunately Austrian´s "mother" Lufthansa would never grant OS a 747 :( What grass did you use on # 6 and 7 shots? Regards from LOWG, Werner

Hi Patrick, haven´t tried these yet but definitely have the Mi-8 on my list of must-haves! Together with Kamchatka that would be eggbeaters paradise ... Regards, Werner

Hvala, thank you B)

Hi Pete, model is freeware H+S EC 135 for FSX SP 2 or acc.pack available at http://www.mijo-berlin.de/. You have to register there to be able to download but it´s absolutely stressless, no spam received from there ever since B) There are lots of variants (police, medics, press, military) and you are able to totally adapt the exterior as well as the interior according to your wishes (conventional or glass cockpit, outside mirrors, winch, cable cutter, FLIR and so on). One of the best freeware helos available. BTW, scenery is fantastic freeware EDCG Rügen from Orbx. Regards from LOWG, Werner

Hello Randy, great you finally got that heavy bird working. In case you find yourself with some spare time and even more patience - make a copy of your existing 777 folder on your desktop (as a safety), download the Greg Wilson jb777 Panel, carefully read (and re-read) the included instructions and have a try installing it. It´s definitely worth the effort, since it brings full eicas as well as the 777 electronic checklist! If your 777 ever brings you near Austrian skies, have a cold Victoria Bitter and give me a wave from virtual above @ Jim: I just went to the posky archive, opened the 777-200 virtual cockpit section, downloaded the vc model files for the GE90model and had a look at the copyright section. It reads: "Copyrights: This aircraft is made by Project OpenSky... CREDITS: Model builder: Hiroshi Igami Yosuke Ube And with support of Posky members Virtual Cockpit builder: Jacob Kubique FDE designer: Brandon D Henry Warren C. Daniel Master Painter: Yosuke Ube Aircraft advisory: Corey Ford Aaron Seymour" Anyway, Regards from Graz Werner

Hi mate, it´s not just the liveries that you need. It´s also the correct model files as well als the *.AIR files that match the model entry in the livery´s aircraft.cfg. They differ by the engines (PW or RR) and the basic model (200, 300, ER or cargo). So when downloading a livery, open the aircraft.cfg and look for the needed model= ... line. Then look in your existing 777 folder and see, if that model is already there. Otherwise you have to download that model file from the posky archive (the VC versions!!) and place it into your 777 folder. Then just copy the livery folder to your 777 folder and from the livery´s aicraft.cfg file copy and paste the section [flightsim.x] down to description and copy it to the aircraft.cfg in your already existing 777 aicraft.cfg. Take care to adapt the [flightsim.x] number, so that x is the next number following the last [flightsim.*] entry. Also place the air file, that corresponds with that in the line "sim=" of the livery´s aircraft.cfg into your existing 777 folder. That´s just about it but if you still Need help I´ll be at my sim computer at evening (central european time and can have a closer look at my 777 folder Contents and structure). BTW I guess you might have activated dx10 preview that made your cockpit windows intransparent. This can be corrected with the OS777_VC_10_t.zip and I have my 777 working under dx10 without any problems. Cheers from Austria to Australia, Werner

Hi Randy, by telling us "it´s still the same" you mean that the cockpit windows are still intrasparent or that you are stil missing vc textures? In the first case, try the solution with the OS777_VC_10_t.zip. I forgot to tell you to rename the eqal named bmp file to OS777_VC_10_t.bak to make it work! In the second case, go to the posky archive, go to 777-200, panel files and load the 777-200 vc 32bit textures tah go int your 777´s texture Folder. I tried to post my 777-200 panel.cfg but could not copy & paste it here :( Don´t give up on this plane, it´s defintey worth the labor!

@ Randy: go and g**gle for a file called OS777_VC_10_t.zip and follow the instructions included. It replaces the equally named bmp file for a dds and it works fine for me. And don´t forget to slash out the dirtglass gauge in your panel.cfg. Regards Werner BTW: your second picture seems as if you´re missing the 32bit vc textures availble on the posky archive ... PS: you should try the merge with Greg Wilsons fantastic jb777_panel, that gives you - among other things - a working eicas instead of a third nav display
