I finally have two monitors. i figured out how to add a new view to the other monitor, but now the active monitor has an annoying border around it.1. How can I get rid of the active window border?2. How can I switch between monitors without using the mouse?3. How can I maximize the new view on the other monitor? Currently I have to manually resize, and it isn't perfect.Thanks,Wild

Closer to Microsoft's games studio actually, and Microsoft doesn't do structural changes. If they really were, they would have kept the team and just forced them to move. I don't think you understand Microsoft so well. If you listen to any of their financial calls, they are really into XBox. Actually it is only one of a few things at Microsoft that is doing well. LOL!Seriously guys, if this was anyone else other than Microsoft, you would all be 100% correct. I wouldn't argue a thing. Sadly, this is Microsoft.P.S. Bridges are worth more than real estate these days, but if you add an airport to your swamp I might reconsider. ;-)Wild

Wow! Thanks for the details. I love the site. This is still way too advanced for me yet though. I was hoping FSX and FSX's ATC would be smart enough to use it. Now that I see it, I guess not.This is a fascinating topic. I can't wait to learn more.Thanks again,Wild

Hi guys,I usually fly bush from point a to point b. I have seen Standard Arrival and Standard Departure plates and was wondering how I could be forced to use them by ATC? Also, I notice large aircraft fly across certain paths when I was looking at a chart of the world once, and was wondering how I can realistically fly them too? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Wild

Flight simulator is amazing. A virtual world that amazes me every time I run it. I think flight simulator X is great, not just from a user's perspective, but also as a software developer. There is something better than FSX though, the community.Wild.

Thanks for the history ahuimanu, the responses make more sense now.What I don't think the so called "Microsoft Flight Experts" take into account is Microsoft doesn't always do things logically. What you laugh as being impossible, might be more possible when you realize how Microsoft works.First, XBox is making them a load of money. They finally got it right with the 360 and everything they see from an entertainment perspective is seen wearing XBox glasses. Do you think they dropped the Simulator from Microsoft flight because they were building a next-gen simulator?Do you think they are Using XBox/Windows Live so developers will have a better way to reach their audience?Do you think they fired most of Aces studio so they could work on making the existing code better?Do you think they stopped production on Microsoft Train Simulator 2 because they want to expand their simulator software?If so, I have a bridge to sell you in New York. :-)Trust me, I want Microsoft Flight to be Flight Simulator 11. I just don't want to get my hopes high yet. I don't think simulator means the same thing to Microsoft as it does to people in this forum.Wild

LOL! I certainly agree with that.

Thanks, I will check out the Lionheart Kodiak.I also saw the A2A's 377 airliner. I just love old airliners, and was blown away when I saw it.The SAAB 91 Safir model is also great. So many choices, not enough money ;-)

LOL! Why do we need to compromise on anything?

Very cool Ryan,The Citation is one gorgeous plane. What do you think of RealAir's Scout 2007 for FSX? I am into bush flying. Does it maintain the standard of the Duke?

I love using the XBox 360's controls for flight. I use the analog triggers for yaw, the left stick for pitch/roll, and the right stick for view. It works very well. I think a Kinnect 2 in the future could easily figure out where your hand's are and translate that into Flight Simulator. I bet you the exec's at Microsoft are thinking the same thing. Check out my other thread.Wild

Thanks Ryan,I didn't know that about about Carenado. I will check out RealAir and Eaglesoft.Thanks again.

I think PMDG and Carenado are currently some of the best third party developers.Is there anyone else who comes close?

This is truly amazing.Wild
