The game has potential for sure. Graphics are smoother and better than FSX for instance. However world size and gameplay is not at the level of FSX yet, emphasizing yet since looking through some of the config files in the user data directories show some promising features. But for now we have to do it without ATC, auto pilot, rudder trim (very annoying when flying with cross wind and having torque settings switched on) and some other stuff a FSX fan would definitely see.

Yes, I'm had the same problem but solved it...Related to this an maybe even more anoying is that also the plane information in the hangar is suddenly in kilometers and meters instead of in feet and nm ..I tried to change the UNITS_OF_MEASURE item in C:Users<username>AppDataRoamingMicrosoftFlightFlight.CFG to 0 and 2 but that didn't help..Since it is a microsoft game I thought it might use the international settings of windows and setting them to US helped.. To do this open your control panel and open the item Clock, Language, and Region and under Region and Language click Change location. A window pops up which contains the tab Formats, open this one and under Format select for example "English (United States)"... This will do the trick... Disadvantage of this is that everything in microsoft programs using the location setting will change. For example how currencies, dates and time are shown in Excel and Word. To avoid this keep your Format to the default one and click the button "Additional settings". This will open a new dialog, in this dialog open the Tab called Numbers. Somewhere you should see "Measurement system"... Change this from Metric to U.S. and your problem is solved...For your info, this is how it is done in Windows 7 but it should be similar for Vista and XP... And yes, this is an annoying fix and Microsoft Flight should have made this at least configurable in the game itself....Cheers,DrMarble
