Ben Supnik, of X-Plane Developers, has announced the release of WEB V1.2 BETA 1. WED 1.2, the WorldEditor, was previewed at the X-Plane conference a few weeks ago in Columbia, South Carolina. X-Plane developers describes some highlights: Finally, a real airport import dialog box – when you import a dialog box, WED will let you pick a subset of airports to grab. So now you can open the entire apt.dat file from Robin and just pick the airport you want. There is now a library preview pane for objects, autogen scenes (.AGP files) and draped polygons. WED 1.2 supports all of the new v10 overlay editing extensions, e.g. forests as tree lines, facade wall-type control, etc. You can read more about the WED and download it from the X-Plane Developer's site here. -

Hello!) fellow community! Its time for me to get myself another simulator, and what I initially thought was getting p3d. It seemed like the proper choice to make.... but after seeing how good the x-plane iS, I am kinda puzzled as to which simulator to buy. I mainly use GA aircraft and would appreciate the actual aircraft modeling + nicer graphics above everything else. Well; can you guys give me some input as to why x-plane is better than p3d, and just compare the strengths of those two. cheers

X-Line Virtual Aviation is a new virtual airline for X-Plane pilots. Currently we have 21 planes in our fleet, and offer 800+ routes across the whole world. We also allow charter flights, so everyone can fly their favorite aircraft on their favorite route. We use the new VAM software, including the SIM ACARS. This gives us the oppertunity to log the complete flight, including all kinds of extras, like landingspeed, lights on/off, taxispeed, etc. As soon as PMDG releases their DC6 for X-Plane, we will add it to our fleet, along with some historic routes. We are working on a shared-cockpit function. Check out our new website and join this nice new VA: www.xlinerva.com Kind regards, Johan Wijnands CEO

Dear all, Does anyone uses the external FPS limiter for the Radeon graphics card on the Windows 10 operating system? If so could you please share your experience with the rest of the community about setting it up in Windows 10 and a like. The reason I'm asking this is that before Windows 10 I could use the software Radeon_external_FPS_limiter (found it on Boyote tweaking site), but since Windows 10 the mentioned software doesn't work. Also is there some other similar software that could work on Windows 10? Thank you all in advance for the helpful tips and suggestions. Safe simming Marko -

:smile: I have to apologise if I touched on the elephant in the room regarding other current threads. There is such a sim called X-Plane which: 1) indeed incorporates a totally different and fairly modern engine 2) already makes use of your GPU and welcomes an upgrade 3) adding to #2, has no problem with using 4+ GB of your precious RAM since it's on 64bits for months now, stable 4) won't spoil the fun with 'commercial' limitations of any kind since this is a sim being offered for entertainment purposes in the first place, leading to a lets call it civil pricing and future I cannot say that it's bug free or that it offers the plethora of addons having arisen from the FS9-to-FSX-to-P3D adaptation but there is an active freeware and payware scene, although some names might be new to you. And, hey, even PMDG joined that club, so it cannot be that unprofitable from a market perspective. Other big (FSX) names, of course, are Aerosoft or Carenado. So if you wonder how your sim might progress and how really new purchases (as opposed to just buying a new licence for a plane you already 'owned') make sense, there's a contender you might have missed so far. There's a demo available and if you want to stick with it, you can either fire up STEAM or get a boxed version (which is cheaper, as it seems). So all preferred paths of purchase should be available.

Never having flown a turboprop aircraft, I have a few questions. This is not related to any one model or sim, for that matter. For now, i'm learning the Carenado PC-12 and soon. I will pick up the LES Saab. Whenever I fly a turboprop, the aircraft seems to roll quite a bit once the brakes or released. This happens in every turboprop model I've flown in X-plane or FSX. Is this how it really is? I feel like i'm always riding the brakes when taxing along. Do these aircraft go through brake pads faster that piston or Jet aircraft? I have a button on my HOTAS system set to reverse thrust. I've used this once in a while in flight with Turboprops and it does a great job of slowing the plane down when I'm coming in too fast. (something that I always have trouble with faster aircraft). Is that Taboo when flying turboprops? Do they every use reverse thrust in flight to slow down? Forgive me if these are dumb questions, Rob

Hi Everyone. I just uploaded the first installment on what I plan to be a series of tutorials that should provide a quick and easy way to get up to speed with Pilot2ATC. We'll be adding to these over time, with lots of screenshots and some tips and tricks of P2A along the way! Many of you have struggled with getting in the air the first time, so this first installment will get you from Clearance Delivery through first contact with Oakland Center in a short IFR flight from San Jose, California to Oakland, California. Probably not a good one for airliners, but grab a good GA plane and take the plunge! You can find it on the Downloads page www.pilot2atc.com/download Just press the View Test Flights button to download the PDF. Enjoy Dave

There are not many payware airports. For a commercial organisation there is a question of whether to put the investment into development when it is unclear if there is a sufficient market demand. So how many of you would be prepared to buy payware airports if they were made available, bearing in mind you get what you pay for. Or is it solely the journey that matters to the majority and not the beauty of the takeoff and landing? Would be really useful if the silent majority would have your say and encourage others to do so as well perhaps. Thanks for reading my request folks. -
