I own and fly the Majestic Dash 8 Q400 Pro. I think it is probably one of the top ranking versions of the Dash 8. Performance wise it runs many processes outside of FSX, yielding great performance. Really a joy to fly. Habu

I just purchased a machine at Best Buy that was a No Name called IBuyPower. Started researching it and was surprised a how well it was built up: MSI System Board I-7 Processor 3.4 GB Turbo to 4.0 8 GB DDR4 2133 Ram Nvidia GTX 1070 with 8 GB 700 Watt Power Supply 120GB SSD 1 TB HDD System was priced at $ 1149 US Fresh Install of FSX-SE set itself at Ultra High settings. Ran in the 45-65 FPS with just the clean install, even at Las Vegas and Chicago Loaded up all my ORBX and Aircraft and still holding decent FPS. I will have to back off some of the settings, but very happy overall. I will add another * GB of system RAM. Les

I am seeing posts of many many Alaska airports. Unfortunately when I look at the map display I see maybe a dozen. I am running a 32 bit machine which I understands limits scenery density, but it also make my airports go away also??? Thanks for any help and fly on! Les

Greetings to all, I have seen several posts that refer to a "Maximum" graphics setting. I only have Low, Medium, and High. Does flight offer a "Maximum" setting based on graphic card specs? I have an ATI HD 4650 with 1 GB of RAM. Thanks, Les

Greetings to all from Nebraska,

A little help for an old man please. I have done a nice water landing, taxied up to the landing for the memorial, opened the cockit, exited the plane (Icon) but I am stopped at that point. No matter which direction I try and go I am stopped. Your help will be appreciated. Les

Thanks everyone. Looksw like a new video goes in my next upgrade. Les

Greetings to all, First off, I am very happy with Flight. I did note that my trees, etc.. do not seem to be as thick as they look on the Windows 7 theme scenes. I have trees and bushes, but they seem to be a long ways apart. I have an ATI 4650 with 1 GB of video ram. Am I just expecting too much? The options are all get to the top (high) settings Thanks, Les
