Try mounting it on top of the TV and angling the TrackIR down. If it's on the desk, the unit might not be able to "see" your TrackClip when you look up. I've tried it on a TV myself, worked just fine mounted on top.

The P-8 is now available as part of the NGX base package. Check the Operations Centre, there are a few liveries available for the P-8 there.

Just yesterday I was thinking about the need for a good FSX/P3d Connie. Keen for this one!

Very sad RIP to all.

I notice that myself- sure is frustrating. This chap has kindly released instructions on how to replace the springs in the yoke with rubber bands: http://sehlah.com/yoke.pdf Considering it myself, the old springs are getting a bit tired now.

Thanks very much!

Thanks to all for your replies!! I've had a look at the Cimber Air ATR, and it sure is pretty impressive for a freeware add-on. Unfortunate that the sim community does not have much choice when it comes to ATRs.

Hi all, I'm chasing a quality ATR systems-heavy simulation. It looks as though Flight 1's ATR is the best out there, but how systems-heavy is it? Does it reach PMDG standards (to the point that it could be used by real pilots for revision) or does it fall short of that mark? Also, has anyone had any success in using the F1 ATR in Prepar3d? Thank you in advance.

Their 707 is actually very good in terms of systems and modelling.

The L1011 would be the best choice IMO. The 727 and 737 have problems here and there, making flying somewhat annoying. The L1011, however, is actually VERY nice to fly- problems are actually pretty hard to find in this one.

Hi all! I am passionate about aircraft spotting and photography in general. I'd like to ask for a couple of seconds of your time please- for a quick vote for my entry in this competition: https://www.beautyofflight.com.au/#/boards/plane-paparazzi-ee542658-b854-439a-9a95-f5af0ae4df7d/entries/retro-roo-630e1c30-ea07-4184-9fcf-56db72a86362 Essentially, the most votes wins a voucher for a camera store, which would be amazing for me and my future with this passion of mine. I do apologise if this is an inappropriate topic. I appreciate your time, and thank you all very much!

Sounds perfect!! Thank you all very much for your help!

Thank you both for your answers!! Sure would be interesting to have a 1960s environment in FS...

While I do enjoy ETOPS planning etc for PMDG aircraft, the only long-hauls I've performed were basically ones where I'd takeoff, go to bed and wake up in the morning, a short time before TOD. I find it's always nice to wake up, turn the monitor on and see the 777 flight deck there, the way I'd left it 12 hours ago. I've flown 3 long-hauls: 2x KLAX-YBBN (14hr) and 1x PHNL-YBBN (10hr). Other than that, I'm much like others in this thread- a 1-2hr hop will do it for me.

Hi all, I'm interested in flying a bit nostalgic and flying my regular routes with old aircraft. However, routes such as Brisbane to Sydney or Sydney to Melbourne are sparse in terms of NDBs and VORs, with only a couple at each end of the respective routes. Back in the day, 727s were used very commonly on these routes, and I'm just wondering, how would they have navigated (before the days of GPS of course)? Thanks in advance!
