  1. It just makes me more picky with my purchases. The loonie is what it is unfortunately...
  2. Can't wait to run this beauty into TNCM as KLM!
  3. Taxi2Gate are among the very best in FSX/P3D scenery. The choice between ImagineSim and Taxi2Gate isn't much choice at all. T2G is far superior.
  4. Perhaps a loss of power. Is your power source set to a generator, or are you drawing off the battery?
  5. Exciting news to be sure! I never really understood all the vitriol for their A320 series aircraft. Sure, they're not study level sim, but they're by far the best Airbuseses for FSX/P3D...
  6. I stream on twitch most weekends. I've got a few regular followers who pop in. I'll usually stream my Virtual Air Canada or Royal Dutch Virtual flights....or if nothing in the particular route structure strikes me as interesting, I'll load up something a bit more exotic... I've had people tell me they really enjoy my stream, as I strive to have a fair amount of interaction with viewers. I enjoy teaching what I can, whether its aircraft specific systems, or how to interpret charts... http://www.twitch.tv/cvhmaverick
  7. Your squawkbox client will populate all other VATSIM traffic in your area, regardless of what sim they're using.
  8. I've never been to uFly, but I have used the 737 sim @ Threshold Aviation in YYZ. Not a fullmotion sim, but having never experience the full cockpit setup, I really enjoyed it. http://www.thresholdaviation.com/pages/-Flight-Simulator-Centre.html
  9. While my personal preference is flying with the virtual cockpit only, your videos with the 2D panels are stunning! Subscribed!
  10. I've got it, I enjoy it. Its not to the same level as PMDG, but nobody is....
  11. I feel the community is most desperate for a 767. Still loads of them in use today. I remember reading somewhere that more 767s cross the Atlantic every day than any other aircraft. The Level-D is archaic, the CS is...well its CS. Fingers and toes crossed for the '67!
  12. I find a lot of people who are setting out on their first Vatsim flight tend to overthink it. You won't get booted or banned because you're learning. Most of the controllers are very patient, and very accommodating. Before I did my first flight, I loaded up in a heavily controlled area (ATIS, GND, TWR, APP/DEP, CTR), during a Vatsim event. All I did was tune into the various frequencies, and listened. Got a sense of how formal the parlance needed to be. After that, I focused on flying in uncontrolled areas, all the while monitoring UNICOM (122.800). This helped me get comfortable flying in situations where there are other pilots online. Finally, I put all my prior experiences together, and I've never looked back. Love flying on Vatsim, whether there's online control or not. Out of curiosity, what Vatsim client are you using?
  13. I only use FTX Global for my ground textures. As a heavy metal flyer, I don't bother getting photo-realistic textures for (for example) the pacific northwest etc. Scenery like that has a large memory footprint, increasing the chances for an OOM, and you will hardly notice the scenery from FL300+. I only activate my addon sceneries that actually involve my flightplan, orig, dest, altn. No sense in loading up JFK + Manhattan if I'm flying CYYZ-TNCM. I just try to keep what is happening in my sim to a reasonable level, and I rarely have a CTD or OOM...
  14. I'm running FSX, and I seem to be noticing minor improvements to framerates, certainly no framerate loss...regardless of weather radar running or not....
  15. I didn't buy anything flightsim related, but I did pick up Kerbal Space Program on Steam, and it's amazing!! Anybody interested in space flight needs it!
  16. ...nevermind. I reread you post... sorry
  17. Struggling to even hit the runway on landing with the default 737. Max fuel every time. Trim? what is this?
  18. Hi all, I'm try to find out if there is a way to create an overlay on Google Earth, showing my FS flight history. For example, if I did a flight from KJFK to EGLL, i would like Google earth to show a line connecting the two airports. Then, if I departed EGLL for OMDG, another line would show. Eventually, there would be a many lines connecting many airports. Any ideas?
  19. I had my first ever OOM in the T7 yesterday going into FlyTampa's YUL with the -300. ASN producing cloudy conditions, with rain. No other fancy scenery installed... I've got FSUIPC displaying the available virtual memory in the sim. At the time of the OOM, I had 1.4 GB left... I'll re-read the introduction manual to make sure I haven't missed anything.
