While the VC in the Baron is gob-smackingly beautiful, I prefer flying in the 310 both for its lower fps impact and (IMHO) more realistic flight dynamics.

Had that experience a few times with one of the D18 packages (original by Milton Shupe). Seemed to happen if I hadn't flicked the mag switches before hitting the starter.

All Iris products seem a fair bit cheaper at flightsimstore (unless there's another price correction!) - got me the new Grob for Aus$14 - so get in quick.

Big discounts on select Milviz products - inc. F4E Phantom (Aus $24.90) and 737-200 (Aus $20.75) http://www.flightsimstore.com/index.php?manufacturers_id=270

+1 recommendation re: Tongass I'm thinking I'll get the Gloster Gladiator - can't go too far wrong for €8

Fingers crossed your problem has gone away, Ernie. I had a look in 'properties' and found I did not have any boxes checked, so hopefully I'm good to go (haven't ventured much beyond VC exploration and a cold and dark start so far). Glad to hear it's not a huge jump up from GA - the FMC looks intimidating, but I'm sure it's just a case of learning the steps. Happy flights.

Is it always flying the same aircraft? If so, which one? Is it always landing at the same airport? If so which one? Could be the plane, but it might also be a mesh/landclass problem if you are running conflicting airport or scenery add-ons.

Please let us know if this suggestion works, Airernie. I'm wanting to learn the ERJ-145, so if there are little problems that can be fixed up front, that would be good. Thanks

Very nice, Ron. I'll be adding to the download count for this one too!

Very nice, Ron. I have this but aircraft but haven't used it yet - your paint will be a prompt to get it up and running. Thanks!

Sale on selected titles, until 18 October. http://www.pcaviator.com.au/store/home.php?cat=855

I've been flying the Seabee a bit lately - with internal and external sounds working fine - so I checked and can't explain your problem. The sound folder includes custom files (no redirects to sounds from default planes you might have removed). You could check the Aerosoft forums for earlier discussions about sound - or simply try a re-install (?)

Try here, Neucoas:http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/thumbnails.php?album=12 + Berndt Stolle's FDE specifically for FSX is available at flightsim.com

Rick Piper et al Hawker Siddeley HS.748 is particularly 'good value' freeware. Get it and the v6 panel update here: http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_lib/index.php?cat=4

18 page thread here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?94813-MV-F-4E-Phantom-II-Released! . . . and another one there for repaints.

I would double-check your trim input device/calibration. It is very strange that 3 different versions give you the same experience - and that experience is not noted by others posting here. My 2 cents worth - the JF Archer has a FDE by Rob Young (RealAir), and while it may be showing its age re: VC textures, it's flight dynamics are generally considered one of its strong points. Happy Flying.

Discount is for the first 2 weeks (starting 30/7).

Sale includes new Stampe and Travel Air pack. http://secure.simmarket.com/golden-age-simulations-%28fr_315%29.mhtml
