  1. Luke, I have found that if I put KDTW at the bottom of my scenery library, it works much better.
  2. I have always enjoyed the 767 from Captain Sim. The exterior model is nicely done, there are a lot of liveries and the VC and function is great. I know they have made some rather poor aircraft lately, but the 767 for P3Dv5 is nicely done and worth the money, even when not on sale.
  3. I bought the early version and have had this aircraft since they released it for P3D. The aircraft is really nice visually. Model and cockpit are great. It is extremely buggy, I mean extremely. They have been working a lot on it, so it continues to improve. They really ticked me off when it first came out. They released it for MSFS about two months before the P3D version. Then they continued to improve the MSFS version before releasing the P3D version, almost as if they weren't going to finish a P3D version. To their credit, after a lot of ticked off users, they finally started to work on the P3D version. I think everyone will be impressed with the aircraft. It is as nice or better than the PMDG version from years ago. It will have some bugs and non working features when it's released, but they said those would continue to be improved. It has been a long wait for this bird..I think it will be one that is worth the wait.
  4. Is this update available yet? I have your 2015 version, where will I find the update when it is available?
  5. I would just forget about it. Like others have said, maybe the controller was having a bad night. I keep reading about all these horrible experiences on VATSIM recently and can honestly say I must be the lucky one. Out of more than 3000 hours flown on the network, I rarely have any issues and usually receive great service. Don't let one bad night ruin a good thing for you.
  6. Thank you Luke. My flight did get approved and recorded like you said, in about 20 minutes. The system seems to be working great on my end. The problem I had trying to close it has been fixed it seems. I noticed a new update the last time I used it, so that was probably fixed in that update. My other VA is extremely interested in using this program along with our custom ACARS. Most of the staff have been testing it out this weekend, and I have heard nothing but great reviews. I will have our technology team contact you to see how to code this into our website. Thanks again for a great product!
  7. Hey Luke, I just completed my second flight with this great product. I have a question in regards to filing this flight with a VA. I am a member at DVA as well as a few other Virtual Airlines. I flew this flight for DVA and selected Delta Virtual Airlines from the drop down tab before starting my flight. Once the flight is completed, how do I send it to DVA? I know I could just use their ACARS, but I wanted to test this feature out for one of the other VA's I belong to. Great work as always, good luck on your new endeavor! Mark
  8. I purchased and installed the GTX970 last weekend and I am very happy so far. I had a GTX670 before and I have increased my framerates about 15-20%. It also seems much smoother. I bought the GEFORCEGTX970 by EVGA with the overclock and extreme cooling 2.0. Hope this helps.
  9. This driver has not worked very well for me. I kept getting pink screens and driver errors so I went back to an earlier version.
  10. An Airtran Airbus, I love it. You are so correct. Every month or so, I fire up FSX just to see what I am missing, and every month I find nothing. Yes, there are some nice sceneries made only for FSX, but not enough to make me want to switch over. I love my FS9! Great pics by the way!
  11. They also make a great scenery for KPVD.
  12. I have found that loading another aircraft first and then loading the Wilco works for me. It is a pain, but that is my solution.
  13. Welcome back Ian. Sorry to hear about your terrible ordeal. I will tell you that my first simulator experience started in 2006 when my kid's bought me FSX for my birthday. Yes, I started out simming with FSX. I kept hearing everyone talk about FS9 and wondered to myself, "I've got to try this out, everyone says its the best, better than FSX?". So I found a copy and installed it and never looked back. Sure, I have FSX installed on my computer with $1000 worth of addons, but I just can't beat the look and feel of old reliable FS9. I never have crashes or memory errors and it looks better to me than FSX ever did. Sure people will say they get great FPS in FSX but then they show you a screen shot and it's because they have their graphics card turned down so low everything is just a bunch of jaggies. I'll take my FS9 with graphics set to full tilt and the sliders maxed out all day long over FSX. Yes, it's tempting when PMDG puts out their shiny new 777 and thumbs their noses at us FS9'ers, but then you look at a post that reads: Just flew 14 hours in the 777 only to have my FSX crash before I could finish the flight. Kinda brings a grin to my face.
  14. I recently uninstalled and reinstalled FSX because of start up issues. I use FS9 on 95% of my flights. My problem is that when I reinstalled FSX now when you click on the help button at the top of the menu bar in FS9, it says registry error. I have run the registry repair tool from Flight1, but that doesn't seem to help. I have my FS9 updated to 9.1 and use the no cd .EXE. I would hate to have to reinstall FS9 and all of my add ons. It doesn't seem to affect anything involved with running FS9 or installing additional payware, but just bugs me that it is not 100% correct.
  15. You need to look a bit harder.. Taxi2Gate has released some very fine scenery recently. They released KMCO a few months back and it is superior.
  16. Well, I did post this in the FS9 version of the PMDG 737 and I have looked pretty hard to find one and still can't find a Delta 737-900 for the legacy version of the PMDG 737.
  17. Now that Delta is gaining a new 737-900 every two weeks, does anyone know where to get a paint for it? I've checked the usual places, but no luck.
  18. I had the same problem, can't remember how I fixed it or what caused it in the first place
  19. Wow, that is a huge improvement. Any chance you might share that tweak?
  20. The thing is I see a lot of people say they get high frame rates with FSX.....then you look at a screenshot and it looks terrible. For me personally, I prefer a picture perfect shot with my FS9. Sure I could get 100 plus frames per second, but I want no jaggies, no shimmer, just a totally awesome looking display when I fly so I set all my settings within Nvidia Inspector to their highest levels. When you do this, your framerates are going to suffer. Myself, I can get about 30-40fps when flying add ons and add on scenery. You just have to play around with the settings until you find that compromise that you are happy with. It took me years and years to get it right, but I am finally in a happy place.
  21. Yes, please tell us what you did so we can all share in your joy!
  22. It is nice, but I can't get the jetways to show up for me. Flightbeam has stopped developing for FS9 so I would say stick to Fly Tampa, it is just a tad bit less quality than the flightbeam one. I wish Fly Tampa would re do some of the older products like they did Tampa. In my opinion, their Tampa reloaded is one of the best products on the market.. Very good eye candy with no hit to the frames.
  23. This is a great looking bird. Now, the big question.....what's the best panel to use? Maybe a PSS777 panel merge with this beautiful model?
  24. I have a great merge Tomer. Send me an IM with your email and I will send it to you.
