  1. To be honest... the last time I did an entire visual approach was a while ago. ILS makes it easier. I usually just let it line up then land it manually. Works better that way. I landed the 707 fine. But thats a good idea about watching videos on that. Also... I've played fsx off and on since it was released. At first I had no idea what I was doing. Anyway. I only learned ils like 3 months ago lol. But I'll try a flight tomorrow or tonight. On a side note. Is radar contact any good? I kinda wanna try it and I suppose I could buy it. I heard good things about it. Also... I've been debated on becoming a pilot. And of course I know that you have that responsibility. Did a flight on a friends computer with FSP. That was interesting. I've actually tried that. Same deal. I use FSC since you can input real routes and such. You may be on to something. The only time I really have it is on wilco airbuses. I know wilco aren't designed the best. I just like the airbus series. Feelthere planes do it occasionally. I'll do a test flight with a captain sim plane and see what happens. Those are my favorite. Don't know why that never occurred to me.
  2. First. When it works it tells you to change to the tower after you descend and began Ils. That never happens. Nothing else comes after it tells you your 63 miles out yadda yadda yadda. It doesn't do it every single time. Also I used to fly without it. But as I said I rarely pay attention. So I end up missing the airport. I just get slightly bored sitting there. Yeah. I don't do it automated every time. It is more fun manually. But me being a bad lander is an understatement. Sometimes I don't realize how close I am so I end up doing a nose dive. Or I land on the taxiway. Also. I use planes with cabins and I find it fun to watch the landing from the cabin. Of course I've flown planes without full autoland like the captain sim 707. Did a flight from New York to London. So I had to land that basically manually. Well the final anyway. Those are more fun. Got way off topic. But you are rights. But atc drives me way off course so it's annoying to do that.
  3. Yeah I know it isn't realistic. But its easier for me since I rarely pay attention to the flight other than checking gauges and doing atc stuff. I usually watch youtube or netflix on my phone. But no I don't get vfr since I still have the ifr choices. Like changing runway and selecting a new ifr flightplan. Also... I haven't learned fmc's 100%... I know how to set it up and stuff but not anything more advanced. I mainly use FSC for flightplanning. I'll probably try vectoring later. After I sleep. Its past 5AM. The main reason I use IFR landings is because I'm a terrible visual lander. I like using autoland. Even if real life pilot rarely use it. Thanks for the reply though.
  4. This has happened multiple times. I do load fs plan at the beginning of the flight... flight goes fine... then when I get close ATC tells me to descend. So I do... then I get approach vectors... then I accept.. then thats it. No more instructions for that flight. The only instructions I get is to change towers when I get out of range... so I get no landing instructions. I just pass over the airport. I've tried everything I can think of to fix it. I end up giving up on a 3hr+ flight. Its happened at least 10 times. Don't tell me to get a 3rd party atc program. I don't have the money to spend. Also this happens with all my planes. Addon and default.
  5. Oh. Thanks. Didn't think about that. But for your question, yes that is from in FSX.I'm sitting at Philly. Edit: Read the EULA. Should be fine. Will upload. Also one thing I forgot to mention, this is for the basepack. Idk if the 200 has its own cabin. If so, it won't work. One other thing, the dreamlights turn off properly when you turn the panel lights off. Cabin lights are controlled by panel lights. Shift+L by default. Edit 2: I uploaded it. Name is dreamlights.zip.
  6. Hey... so this is like a mini project I did. I was tired of the basic lights on the CS767, and recently went out of town and the 737 I was on had dreamlights. So.. after much research and annoying recoloring I'm ready to release it. I didn't originally plan to but might as well. One thing, I didn't upload it yet because I didn't know if it would be copyright infringement... so if someone tells me its ok I will. Screen shot: Any thoughts? The windows have it too. The reason there's blue on the other bins is for shadowing. Easy to remove. This only happens at night.
  7. Cool. Thanks for the help. Got it working. Never messed with the customize aircraft thing. Thanks again.
  8. I know the two shift+e commands work. Opens the main door and front cargo door. But how do I tell GSX to ignore those doors?
  9. Hey, so I got the feelthere 737 thing a while back. I recently got the fsdreamteam GSX(ground service x) So I try using it with the 737.... but I can't figure out how to open the doors.... I got the front cargo door and main passenger door, but can't figure out the other cargo door and the service doors. I searched all over google and couldn't find anything. So just thought I'd ask here. Thanks in advance.
  10. Let me try the approach without FSPassengers, I looked through it some earlier. Thanks for the reply.
  11. Hey guys, this is gonna be my first post... I was watching the wilco airbus ils tutorial on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1QI7ObY0xc I did everything like it said... this happened twice, I intercepted the localizer and glide slope and it was descending but it was going almost like a nose dive... I had FS Passengers loaded to try and get my landings right, anyway, so my speed was fine, flaps were down, and being in a nose dive the nose gear hit the ground first... which FS Passengers doesn't like... but I could use some help. Thanks in advance.
