I watched Sputnik reported on the evening news, Ham became the first chimpanzee in space and watched all the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo flights. WE INVENTED THEM! LOL B)

Thank you all so much! I looked into each of your suggestions and each of them worked! I now have a wonderful FSX system that works great!

I am replacing my old GT9500 with a GTX550 TI I picked up . I did a clean install of driver 314.07. My system works fine, until I start FSX! I immediately get an error box stating the GTX550 TI does not meet mnimum requirements for shader support. I have looked into everthing I could think of, just short of reinstalling FSX. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Guys!

After a few years of simming, I got my wife and daughter involved. We agreed on an AC, the Airbus A318 Private Livery, and use our local airport, KPHL, and have weekend "Family Vacations". We choose three legs and fly to and from places we want to visit. Our latest was from KPHL to KMIA and on to KEYW, with a direct return to KPHL. We also do the West Coast and Europe (Paris, Frankfurt and Heathrow). We have plans for Denver and Dallas also. LAX ,Las Vegas, Seattle and Portland are fun! Our long haul legs are kept within a 4 hour window for each of us. We do want ot try a real long haul like the ones I have flown in real life in the military, such as Sierra Vista, AZ to KSFO and on to Japan or Korea. Or, from Atlanta to Frankfurt.

I have been using/flying the Flight1 ATR72 for FSX in American Eagle for about 4 years exclusively from KMIA to KEYW. In my opinion, and remember, subjectivity plays a BIG part in opinions, I would start with a freeware and see if you like flying the ATR, then make a decision whether to move to the payware or another type of aircraft.

I have a folder on my Desk Top named "FSX Addons". Inside are folders for "Airports" and "Aircraft". Inside each are folders named "Payware" and "Freeware". Inside those are folders named "Installed" and "Not Installed". I also have a large, 3'X5" plastic coated world map I purchaced at a local map store for 8 bucks. I have each airport marked with airlines/aircraft used. I use dry-erase to ease updating. I keep all my registration information on a Word Doc.
