  1. OK Jason. Thanks for that. Cheers John
  2. Thanks for the link flyingsub, but what I need to know is where does one find the pre-installed animals in Simobjects of P3D Cheers John
  3. Hi Folks. In P3D simobjects there are whales, zebras, elephants etc. Does anybody know where abouts one needs to be flying to see these in the scenery please. Also, what has to be set in the P3D Settings, so they show up? Thanks John
  4. Hi Folks. All of a sudden I am unable to get the panel lights to go on, in the cockpit and overhead, of my iFly B738 in P3D. Shift+L doesn't do it, nor does switching the relevant Dome switch on the Aft OHD. Does anybody know why I have lost my lights please. thanks John
  5. Hi Folks. Does anybody know please, why it is that when I set my Propeller and Mixture levers for my Saitek Pedestal at the top, the only reach 80% in the cockpit and I have to push the last 20% up using my mouse on the levers in the actual cockpit. I have tried setting both with FUISIP and I have tried setting both in the control panel. But still I only get 80% when the levers are pushed to the top of the Pedestal. This is for all my light aircraft in P3D, not just certain ones. Hope someone can help. Much appreciated. John
  6. Hi Folks. On the Albeo C404 Titan, there is a round knob, (just underneath the 'Switch Source Select - GPS to Nav switch). It rolls between 0% to 100%. I cannot find any mention of it in the Manuals. Does anybody know what it is for, or what it does please? Thanks John
  7. Thanks Lindsey Much appreciated Mon Ami. John
  8. Hi Folks. I think there may be something wrong with my B1900D that I fly in P3D. IT seems to laterally rock side to side, even to steep bank angles of 60 degrees sometimes. The wind for example at 7000' may only be 2-5 knots yet this lateral instability still occurs as though I was flying in the middle of a serious thunderstorm. Does anybody know what is causing this please? Is there anything in the aircrafty.cfg that can be 'tweeked' to make the roll and yaw more stable? Thanks guys. John
  9. Thank you Bert, Much appreciated. I'll try that.
  10. Thank you Bert for getting back to me. But How do I do that please. Thanks John
  11. Hi Folks. When flying my Carenado B1009D above 5000' I get a warning saying 'CABIN DIFF HI' Does anybody know what I need to to get it to cancel please? Thanks John
  12. Thanks Piper9t3 That's it. well done. John
  13. HI Folks does anybody have the PA32 Saratoga II TC, if so. Where is the Starter please to start manually. Can't find it anywhere. Surely you don't have to start it with CTRL+E do you? John
  14. Hi Folks. Does anybody know please, why I get this dreadful loud jet engine noise when I select a flight in the Free Flight panel. Even a Cessna. It is not airport surrounding noise as I still get it on a farm strip, when I first enter the cockpit on aircraft selection, whatever airplane it may be. If I scroll through the various views using 'S' key tower, spot views etc, when I get back to the cockpit view, the horrendous noise is either cut by 80% or it has gone. If I then click on any of the tabs, i.e. World to get to Time and Season, when I return to the cockpit view the noise returns, and I have to scroll through the various views to get back to the cockpit view where again the noise is either eliminated or cut by 80%. Does anybody know what on earth is causing it, and how I can remedy it. Thanks Folks. John
  15. Hi Folks. I am running FSX on three monitors. I have a 4th monitor overhead that I like to use to put my undocked Overhead and Radio Panels. However, recently, when I undock these panels and slide them onto the 4th monitor above, whilst the Blue Frame of the undocked window goes onto the monitor, the image of the Panel turns black and there is nothing of the panel visible. This seems to happen on my iFly and my QW jets. Does anybody have any ideas please? John P.S. I am running Win7 and my Graphics Card is an Nvidea GeForce GTX 780 Ti
  16. Thank you folks for your input. Much appreciated. John
  17. Hi Folks. I've just upgraded from FS9 to FSX. When in Virtual Cockpit mode in FS9 I could use the 'roller' switch on my mouse along with the shift and ctrl keys to zoom in and out and move the cockpit from side to side. FSX isn't doing that, and as I have 3 screens with Matrox, I need to be able to move the VC about like I was able to in FS9. Please don't tell me FSX can't do it :huh: Thanks John
  18. Brilliant Scandinavian. Too simple wasn't it! Much appreciated Mon Ami. Happy New Year John
  19. Hi Folks. Can anybody please tell me how to zoom in and out to see view of Track and Waypoints on the EICAS window please? Is there a way to zoom in and out on the Map in both 2D and VC modes? Thanks. John
  20. Hi Folks I have re-installed my Quality Wings Bae146 collection v1.3 and now the IRS Panel always comes up naff, (please see attached image), and the switches on the IRS will not work as they seem to be just pasted images over the IRS Panel itself. I am running FS9 with WIN 7. Are there any updates or patches for the QW146 collection. It used to work ok, but not anymore, but I had to re-install it as I was getting CTD every time I took the plane off. Thanks. John
  21. I Had 7.2 Reserve and was going to land with 5.6. So that is not the problem. John
  22. HI Folks. Can anybody please tell me, why, when my FMC in my 737-800NG is showing 5.6 fuel at destination, I keep getting a message saying ' Using RSV Fuel' It pops up at the bottom of FMC every 10 mins or so. Most annoying. Cheers John
  23. Hi Folks. Does anybody know why, all of a sudden the runway lights on approach 'flood' the whole runway, so the runway is pretty well obscured. I have the aircraft landing lights on, but I always did before, but the runway wasn't bathed in light like it does now. This happens with all my jets now? Any ideas, has something gone wrong in my FS9 settings somehow? Thanks John
  24. Hi Folks. Does anybody know why, when I go to 3D virtual cockpit mode I lose the Red with white writing flags at the bottom left of the screen that let you know if you have the Parking brakes on, after pressing Shift period, as well as letting you know FS9 is paused after clicking the 'P' on keyboard. They show up in 2D cockpit but disappear in the 3D cockpit. Is there a way of remedying this please? Thanks John
  25. Thanks Guys for your input. Thanks navtech, I'll give that a go. Much obliged
