I downloaded SP1c today and found it's the same name and size as the one I downloaded Oct 2014. Also, Ops Center says my installed version is 1.10.6155 with 1.10.6320 (SP1d) available. So, I don't need this to update after all???

Thanks, can I download the package to update instead of using the Ops Center?

So, if I run FSX without logging into Steam, then I don't need to update to SP1c or SP1d?

I know, except that section and other forums are so big it's not easy to find what you want. On the other hand, someone who has been using P3D for sometime should be able to point me in the right direction more easily ... rather than being rude about it. So, you don't need to convert them and they will work straight away in P3D? Regards, Harry

I was more interested in P3D tweaks like Kostas for FSX and if the airports and AI aircraft that comes standard are fine or is it possible to install freeware airports and sceneries like those in FSX. I can imagine there are many threads about P3D tweaks and tips, and a forum is general the best place to ask short of Google.

Rod, +1 as in I agree with you. As my Vref+5 is for flaps25 and higher speed, it takes longer for the aircraft to slow to a minimum for the reverse thrusters to kick in ... just a theory.

This assumes you have bought Fly Tampa for FSX, right? What are the standard airports and AI traffic like in P3D? Can you point me to the thread, please. Also, is there a thread with guidelines and tips on installing P3D and configuring it on Win 7 64-bit? Cheers, Harry

+1 What's your VRef+5 speed for landing? Mine's usually 153 or 154.

Thanks for the preview Robert ... the B777 looks really amazing :rolleyes: Please give existing PMDG 777 a discount or trade-in for P3D :wub: Cheers, Harry

Alright, I finally got the reverse thrusters opened just before the nose gear came down last night. I had to keep holding F2 after the main gears touched down for a good 4 seconds or so ... is this what everyone has to do?

OK, thanks Antoni. I press F1 when I hear the Minimums call out at 50 feet and then F2 when the main gears touch down. Next, I press and hold down F2 a second time. Should I press and hold F2 once when the main gears touch down?

Do you mean flick the A/T lever down (switch off)? I shall give this a try tonight Cheers, Harry

I always press and hold F1 before the main gears touch down and then press F2 twice with the 2nd press holding down the button. I don't use a yoke or joystick ... just the keyboard Cheers, Harry

I don't have FSUIPC installed, and still can't get the reverse thrusters to activate until the nose gear is down.

Same for me.
