  1. Thanks all for replying. Three of us fly multiplayer just about every Fri. Two of us have FSGRW and the other AS. Not sure what version of AS he has. We always look for bad WX to fly into. The AS user always seems to have the severe wx where as us FSGRW guys have light rain and sometimes lightening. I'm thinking multiplayer is messing up some of wx for us FSGRW users. Latest issue of PCpilot has a good article on wx generators. They say ASN interpolates the wx. So they will inject wx in some areas that don't have metar reports. So that explains some of it. Sometimes when I exit multiplayer and go to free flight, refresh my wx, the same airport will now have better wx inline with reports.
  2. Been using FSGRW and seems like it's not depicting weather per reports and real radar. Might change to another wx eng, any suggestions?
  3. That's disappointing to hear FANCON's are done with. It seemed like the attendance wasn't too bad, I think around 80 people. But yes the amount of vendors was low. Glad my two flying buddies and myself made it to the Wichita one. We had a great time. I even won a PMDG 777 at the dinner that evening! The keynote by Robert Randazzo was fantastic. We met a lot of great simmers there, including a Southwest captain who sat with us at dinner. Now this guy had aviation in his blood! He even flew his Piper Aerostar to the event from dallas!
  4. There's CockpitFest-USA in Lancaster Tx, August 29-31st, Last time Fancon was held in conjuction with CockpitFest, it was a good show, doesn't appear Fancon is in collaboration this time I remember a poll was taken earlier as to where the next Fancon was to be held. I was late on my submission of Dallas so it wasn't included on the list.

    No wing flex

    Not getting any wing flex on the 777. Also I have the PMDG 737ngx and I don't get it on that one either. Is there a setting to turn on? Thxs
  7. Anyone have any opinions of the KingAir 200 on which one is better? Flight 1 was clever in making theirs a little different with the Blackhawk engines and G1000. I think Carenado should offer an addon to upgrade the engines and avionics for a nominal fee.
  8. Sorry I missed the deadline for city submission. But I feel strongly about the city I wanted to submit- Dallas, Texas. Very few if any cities have TWO major flight hubs like Dallas. American at DFW and Southwest at DAL. Think of how convenient and less expensive for the attendees to fly non-stop into Dallas. Also, DALLAS is a convention city! Lots of hotels ,restaurants, and nightlife. Now here are the aviation related things I think would make FANCON 2014 one of the best- 1. www.cavanaughflightmuseum.com Excellent aviation museum with the world's only flying B-29! 2. www.crsmithmuseum.org/ This is a museum about the history of American Airlines with lots of exhibits and flight sims. Also has a IMAX movie theater that has first class aircraft seats! They also rent space for special events. What a spot for an awards dinner! 3. www.flyasim.com A buddy of mine and I flew this,a full motion 737 flight sim! Maybe if enough people signup we can get a special rate! 4. American Airlines Fight Academy and Southwest Airlines train their pilots in Dallas. Possibly we can get tours of these facilities. 5. DFW has a look out area to watch airplanes arrive and depart. Maybe we can meet for lunch here! Lots of action and never boring! 6. www.flightmuseum.com This is Southwest Airlines museum. Has a full size 737 that you can walk through with onboard exhibits! 7. www.frys.com a huge computer/electronics superstore. You can literally buy everything you need to build a computer here. A must see! As you can see Dallas would be a excellent choice! 3 of us that attended FanCon 2013 are from Tulsa, Ok. We met a guy who came from Dallas(the Southwest capt) and another from Kansas City. Thanks, York Eaton
