I haven't participated on the avsim forums in quite some time because of this. The general attitude is rude at best. Newbs that don't put their last name getting flamed or locked on their first posts... Honest questions getting 50 different smart a$$ responses... Life is too short for that nonsense. It's quite a shame really.

I for one just want to eat my hotdog, be fat and happy... No need to take a tour of the sausage factory...

Twr: "Uh Cessna XXX... We're gonna need you to keep your speed up..." hehe Love those T-38's... My dad had the pleasure of flying those back in the 70's when he was stationed at the now defunct base in Laredo... He's got some pretty wild stories about that airplane! Cheers!

Awesome! You're gonna have the time of your life down there bud! The Texan II looks like so much fun. I parked next to one of the Vance T-6's at KOUN a few years ago... Made my cherokee look like an ultralight! So whats the next step? I guess you'll either move into T-1s? Or something for a helo track? Cheers! Bud

Matt - Thank you for your service. Are you up at Vance?

Thanks guys! I've got the RXP gal who sounds much more pleasing! Cheers! Bud

How do I disable the horribly obnoxious stock "500" sound from the GPWS? Cheers! Bud

I believe that there is a way to do it via LUA script run through FSUIPC... There was one made for the PMDG J41 that was awesome... but! Unfortunately, I wouldn't know where to begin on creating something like that or if it's even feasible for the Carenado. Cheers! Bud

Lee - You wouldn't know whether or not the released SP1 and 2 are included in the simmmarket download by chance would you? I just bought it from simmarket and I'm unsure where to get the patches or if I need them. Thanks! Bud

Being in the oil business... My opinion is that we don't have an oil problem. We've got a political problem. Just my $.02. Cheers!

Being in the oil business, I've learned one thing is for certain... Lawyers or the threat of litigation have killed more deals than I care to imagine. P3d is the ONLY logical successor to FSX IMHO and it would be a shame if devs were scared off by potential litigation threats.

That's nothing... Ya'll should have seen the look on the face of the guy whose hanger is across from mine when on his 182 he: 1) failed to set the parking brake... 2) put about an inch of throttle in... and 3) proceeded to prop start his plane with nobody at the controls....After diving out of the way, he got to watch his beloved, unmanned C182 careen across our runway and groundloop into a bar ditch...

It has been mentioned that there is a performance update. That's what I'm most excited about, as well as tutorial #2... SDK doesn't mean that much to me at this point...

Great news Ryan! I was a tad worried that we wouldn't get all the goodies that the -8 -9 drivers would!Cheers!

I love as2012 but have never really messed much with xgauge. I wonder if it would be possible to use the data from xgauge to model the weather radar on the NGX? Could it be done with the SDK? Seems like a good solution to the accuracy problems presented with modeling an accurate weather radar...Cheers!

It sounds like you have two buttons available for this function and you want the idle/cutoff lever to function like the default "g" key for the landing gear (i.e. 1 press of "g" gear raises, the second press... gear lowers). I'm unfamiliar with the Saitek Throttle quad. Are there any toggle switches available? Or any other buttons/switches that will stay "engaged" until pressed again? I've got a TM Warthog, and was able to achieve your goal through FSUIPC (Idle when toggle is flipped up, and cutoff when toggle is flipped down... or "released").

Hey James- I was having the same problems. Thought the card was dying, blew out the dust and reseat of the card seemed to fix mine... Good luck!

Thanks Chris! You got it, I did change liveries before the start... So I'm good and thanks for sharing the Luv!

Hey guys! I'm flying Kittyhawk right now at night... I'm not getting the logo light on the tail... And the beacon isn't working... Anybody else running into this or is it just on my sys?

Stunning. Absolutely stunning!

Disregard: Zach beat me to the EzDok punch!

Makes perfect sense! I wonder if there is a way to create a layer in the .psd file that would act as a "roadmap" of sorts. Again, please forgive my ignorance on the topic...

Forgive me if this question appears to be ignorant - I'm not a painter, but my understanding is that one of the most challenging aspects of repainting these complex liveries is getting the curvature of the graphics to match on the top of the fuse without distorting the image.... Is this the case? It seems to me that there would be plenty of source material in hi-res for the state flags, so you wouldn't have to recreate them from scratch....

It also should be noted that once inflicted with hypoxia, if you're still awake, your decision making capabilities aren't good. Simple tasks are impossible and confusion takes over.... So radioing back to the engineer to figure out what is going on, when the "fix" or checks should be pretty obvious to a capable pilot.... makes complete sense.

All of your analogies are not accurate. Using FSX has no consequences. Being an inadequate hockey player could lead to injury. Not knowing how to fly an RC plane could lead to property damage/personal injury. Rogue radio operators could broadcast false messages (i.e. "The redcoats are coming!"), thus endangering lives. There are no consequences in doing aileron rolls or immelmans to your hearts content in the NGX if one so chooses.You sir, are a liar. If it's not cntrl+e, its another shortcut that you've taken. You have not flown every single simulated hour by the book.There is nothing wrong with being inclusive and as a REAL pilot, I'm grateful for the those at my airport that took me in when I was a teenager and didn't know a thing. I learned more from their experience than any POH would every teach me. Flame me if you choose to. I could really care less. To the OP, if you need any help, there are plenty of actual good people here that I'm sure would love to help you via private message. Consider me one of them. In the meantime good luck dodging the "holier than thou" flight sim pilots :( :( :( B) B)
