That base is just off the coastline, stretched along the primary runway in a narrow strip of land that runs west to east and separated from the gulf by only a narrow barrier island. Most if not all of the housing and administrative buildings sit between the gulf and the runways. Totally exposed. Look at it with Google Earth and you will see what I refer to. The entire base was exposed to this storm like a defense line is exposed to the enemy in war.

I found it for a free watch on Amazon Prime.....

I would suggest that a handful of posts and responses, particularly here on the 4th page, be assembled into a pinned topic, and appropriately in both the Xplane and FSX/P3D forums as the material is not specific to one.

Either of those good for a $100.00 hamburger sim flight from the Baltimore area? Cafe/eatery?

Lot of great ones in that list, but surprised nobody mentioned Bat-21. Gene Hackman, Danny Glover, and an O-2 (Cessna 337).

Still seeking an answer to my question.

I fly an annual trek down to the Caribbean each year and have had excellent results from FSGRW, closely matching the real weather based forecasts at Fltplan.com and live weather radar images. But I have never tried flying into a region during a hurricane. Still would like to hear from anyone who has. Might be a good mission challenge.

Over 120 MPH in eastern North Carolina in the mid 1950's when I was in grade school. Hurricane Hazel. Was in the small town of Ahoskie, about 30 miles inland. Can imagine what the people inland that distance in today's storm are experiencing. Never to be forgotten.

Just interested in whether anyone is flying a sim hurricane hunter with live weather from any of the sim based weather engines, and if so, what was your experience? Screenshots?

There is no way up front to conclude that you do not have a hardware issue with your yoke, but there was a known problem with Saitek USB devices and Windows, so you should chase those down first. Do web searches for Saitek and Windows Advanced Power Management. Your yoke may be timing out because of the Windows energy saving features. There are patches available on the web and a number of topics here on Avsim about the issue. Work your way back in these forums, particularly in the Joysticks forum instead of this Drivers forum . You should be able to find help. In particular do a search for "SaitekUSBFix.zip" (or .exe). It is one of several apps that patch related Windows registry entries. There are also entries that may need to be set via Windows, Device Manager, Human Interface Devices, identify the hardware item, then Properties, Advanced, and deselect power management options.. Again, sift through these Avsim forums and find the discussions. They may well help resolve your issues. By the way, if anyone responds here that advanced power management is an issue only with Windows 10 let me say firmly, I had the same issues with Windows 7, and they were documented in now aged topics here.

Your paint program should allow you to flip the image either vertically or horizontally to temporarily overcome the reverse nature. Flipping or reversing the image is not the same as rotating it. Then if needed and desired you can rotate it so it appears upright and thus easier to work with. Make the changes. Then reverse any flipping and any rotation to get it back to the original state of the texture and save.

As a Vietnam era veteran I never fail to greet and appreciate an identified or otherwise obvious veteran of any era. And most much appreciate, based on my era, the tone and expression of my greeting, apparently understanding......

Interested in which weather engine and cloud texture set you have in use?

Thank you for that detailed response. Let me say that I was not raising questions regarding your products or installation processes. Instead I was stating concern on my part about my system and my interest and intent to comprehensively clean up all of my GTN gauges to remove fragments that are now not needed (F1) and fragments, widows and orphans so to speak, from previous RXP and Garmin Trainer versions. Having all of that present on my system has at times made it difficult to know which is current and needed. i.e. to know correctly what to back up to another location, and what to discard. I had noted that a number of support questions here may have been due to other users facing the same issue(s). A topic such as this may be able to lay tracks for others to then follow.
