I see alot of players in the option, "All players" in mfs multiplayer. But if i change to "Live players" its hard to find anyone. I wonder why, because in all players its just a mess of aircrafts everywhere, none is trying to follow any rules and are just spawning on the runways and flying low over airport etc.

Testing how she does in multiplayer...she does just fine! 1st time in history that I've seen 3 of my paints in the sim at the same time! 🙂

Hi guys, I want to build a home flightdeck. It will be very simple:2 pcs connected over the network, one for the first officer and one for the captain with CH pedals, saitek throtle and CH yoke.My question is: do you know if it is possible to fly one aircraft with 2 flightsims connected over network and what programs/modules would I need for that?Thanks for your help

Hello, I was curious what the deal was with these long "conga lines" I see on VATSIM every now and then. I check the VATSIM events list, and they are often not correlated. Flying is always more fun with others, so I was wondering if these sessions are announced anywhere.

Nothing realistic going on here. Just a busy airport randomly full on multiplayer, had to turn live traffic off to enjoy it fully.

Hello !During this holiday season, the Smoking Hole Avition Company will be deviating from our usual route - providing several festive events to all interested flyers - with sessions including high standard ATC services. Sessions are normally hosted under the name of ATCMagic, in the Free Flight lobby on Gamespy.- Saturday 17th December 2011 at 1930Z - Central UK NavExTomorrow we have the debut of our Central UK NavEx. We aim these navigation exercises at intermediate/high level flyers who can competantly fly to/from NDBs and VORs, and calculate ETE. We host a different NavEx every few weeks, asking users to visit our website (navex.webs.com) to print preprepared session route charts and information. We also provide a time calculations spread sheet to assist flight planning from an assigned departure time. The aim of a NavEx is to use the old grey matter to reach the route destination as close as possible to your estimated time. ATC is provided at departure and for enroute position reports. Good luck!- Tuesday 20th December 2011 at 1930Z - Santa SARNext Tuesday brings another navigation event aimed at the higher level flyer. This time, we're asking you to find Santa - the victim of an unfortunate forced landing. Using his filed flight plan, nearby navigation aids and radar history, various vague positions are discovered which provide a more accurate location of his downed aircraft. ATC will be active for both departure and centre/enroute positions. Can you find Santa?More details available on the website nearer the time.- Wednesday 21st December 2011 at 2000Z - VFR RouteFor next Wednesday, we're planning a relaxing VFR route. The route will make full use of VOR and NDB equipment, but GPS routings are also available. Aircraft types suggested range between a medium sized single engine prop (C152) and a twin turboprop (JS41). This one isn't for the jet junkies, but if you like low and slow, with beautiful sunsets and dazzling scenery, this might just make your week! Again more details will be available on the website next week...- Friday 23rd December 2011 at 1930Z - AlpineMagicA tradition stemming right back to the 1990s, and the beginning of the Smoking Hole Aviation Company, Alpine Magic allows for a relaxed, yet super fun and highly enjoyable group flight around the European Alps. This time we're taking the 737, promising challenging weather and several difficult approaches as we tour the alps! AlpineMagic is a completely ATC-free environment, where we ask only that you behave sensibly within the session. Whatever your experience, this last session of 2011 is for everyone! Enjoy!After the New Year, we hope to resume our popular ATC style sessions on Wednesdays and Fridays, reserving Saturdays where we can for more interesting and themed events.As ever we will be available on Teamspeak 3: 78.129.174.100:9988Whatever you do this festive season, we wish you a happy and safe holiday.From all at the Smoking Hole Aviation Company.

Hi, I refer to PMDG's post earlier regarding what's under investigation/confirmed/fixed for next update. Under "FIXED", you stated that UDP event flooding on FSX/Gamespy multiplayer servers was fixed for next update. My question is: Is that fix implemented in either of the two hotfixes that have been released, or are we still waiting for a fix for this issue?
