Hi--- recently come back to this plane and now trying to learn some basic IFR flying with vor- dme etc. However ,I find that although I can change the Nav frequency on Nav 2, I am not able to change the "whole " frequency number on Nav1 but can the decimal frequency by the grab and click method. I thought that a patch was issued some time ago (2008?) for the original release but am unable to find it. Or is it finger trouble? If it is not a glitch, would a reinstall from the disc solve it? I like to fly this plane and would hate to leave it in the hangar. There is no radio/nav etc. info in the handbook that came with it. What sort of radios are they. Any help would be appreciated

HI all--late into this topic but my related experience is to do with the offset. I have had the same prob since new (2+ yrs ).Saitek forum did suggest replacing the code but did not fancy that. But my planes want to dive into the ground on the right!!! . Searched many other forums at the time and the unplug was the only one that didn't involve replacement of code etc. And guess what ? It works So basically I just add it to the start up procedure. Load the first plane (whichever) wait for it to load on the tarmac and pull out and push in the usb.Good for the rest of the session on any other plane that I choose to fly. AS far as I know this problem has still not been fixed by Saitek and no patch has been released. (Has it?) Bobby

I have recently loaded the ORBX EU England and find that the AI spits from the blisterhangar 3 start are below ground level in the RealAir Spitfire. As I start to taxi ,I disappear in an unseen"hole" in front of the hanger whilst the AI Spits arrive from undergound as they take off in front of me! I guess this is a terrain conflict error of the mesh. I have checked that the ORBX scenery files are at the top of the list (or should this be at the bottom of the list as seen on the screen) and I have been on the Orbx forum (no result ) and looked at other forums as well and drawn a blank. I have no other add- on scenery as yet. I have downloaded all the patches for EU, which I think may have only adjusted terrian at some airports with no changes. I am new to this FSX (6 months) and have trawled your informative forums many times and have learned a great deal as a result but I am not yet into altering too many things without advice within FSX. I do not want to loose this part of the RealAIr (it all works o.k out of EU region and they all work from the other airfields within the region) as I enjoy trying to fly in formation with the other Spits but at the moment I cannot even get off the ground! I see that Bill has started his own web and I am sure that he would be most disappointed if his efforts for the West Malling scenery now comes to nought as a result of ORBX. Any help and advice would be welcome as I am sure there must be others out there who have this package and either have the same problems or have managed to resolve it.
