Happening here in YYC, stop's at 1 second auto login

When I was a young soldier in the CAF, our long haul transport was a B707 CC-137. This was in 1979, I was a enroute to a 6 mos tour in Egypt. It was like as soon as you sat down, smoke em if you got em was the secret code as before we took off it was time to get your fix in. Afterwards it was wait till the light went off, and then it was like a Casino opened up, booze, smokes, and loud talkers going OFF! Fun times but way too much! Dave

Heads up on new AI separation utilities for P3Dv4
Dolphinhog replied to netshadoe's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
love the fact you can fix taxi incursions or conflicts with AI aircraft which seem to find a way to block your path. -
What's wrong with AI traffic and wind directions?
Dolphinhog replied to Nemo's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
Using Airport Design Editor to modify AFCAD airport characteristics you can shut down runways for take off or landing to modify which runways Ai aircraft can choose from. It's not a perfect fit all scenarios but it does cut down on AI land/takeoff on your approach or departure. In others words if prevailing winds are out of the west you can prevent AI from landing with a tailwind, -
I've done both and it is a personnel choice to have default aircraft crowding the skies, or trying to present real world traffic. Orbx does nice GA without the overcrowding. I understand the wanting not to recreate flight plans, maybe substitute the default GA for a developers pov
-
its a simple way to remove default aircraft, was simply adding a solution other than editing the traffic file, but alas my two cents.
-
remove the traffic.bgl file and all flights are gone. Save it to another folder. Restore if you want it back. Or use AFIP and edit the bgl file.

Hill before a runway, and they don't let me change runways
Dolphinhog replied to Gaz's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
Sounds like ATC is requiring a side step landing for rwy __R. Basically line up to land on left runway, then side step over to right rwy. Youtube shows excellent side step landings for a visual landing at EHAM with a B747 crew -

make sure park brake released or you get the sudden stop

Likely a VAS issue at the 4gb will usually cause a OOM

anyone using FreeNav DB group will have noticed no updates to the airac cycle since June 2018. There doesn't seem to be any changes to the website. Anyone else have the same story. Any news?
-
normally you can do a restore going through the menu and select directory for fsx...should repopulate, then remove any files not directly associated with scenery,

http://onlineflightplanner.org/ Very close to the real deal. saves plan in many formats. Sometimes busy but lately very smooth. Uses real world navaids.
-
http://onlineflightplanner.org/ Very accurate Flight Plans you can even follow on flightradar24, as well ASN weather can read the saved flight plans (many formats) Basically ignore ATC for heading changes without being terminated - annoying callouts but still no IFR cancellations. Ask for altitude changes and stay ahead the curve. Lots of time to set up your stars and ils approaches.

ULTRA-RARE footage of the Red Baron (100 years ago)
Dolphinhog replied to KSATRoadWarrior's topic in Hangar Chat
Splitting hairs here. Developed but not mastered until Fokker working with the Germans perfected it. Fokker being Dutch, Garros French, WWI was the amplifier. -
ULTRA-RARE footage of the Red Baron (100 years ago)
Dolphinhog replied to KSATRoadWarrior's topic in Hangar Chat
The German engineers developed a gun mechanism that allowed the guns to only fire when the blades could not be struck, basically timed to miss the propellers. Some actually had metal reinforcement to deflect rounds off the blade without damaging them. Still other had the guns mounted above the blades and the trigger was above the pilot. Imagine believing that this was all done thousands of feet above the earth, and no parachutes!! -
