Re: Poll: Preferred Flight Sim for Your SAX Flights

I have build a new pc with a lot of more capacity. So now I´m running FSX. I was too late for the voting but I have left FS9.

Re: PMDG 737 NG Winglets

Since I bought a new computer with Windows Vista ( tree years ago) I haven't flew with winglets. I didn´t see the choice in the menu in Fs9/PMDG. Today I made a new try to find the installed winglets. I went to the PMDG-forum and the topic of livery installation problems at: http://forum.avsim.net/t...

Re: Poll: VFR Flight Routes

For many years ago I flew some sceduled VFR post flights in the northern of Norway. It was very fun! A mission was about 4-6 stops at small airfields and took about 2-4 hours to fly. I flew a GAF Nomad twin-engine turboprop. A "short take off and landing" (STOL) aircraft. So Dave, I think ...

Re: POLL: Monthly Flight Rotation

The debate in this mather has been tremendous in this Forum. Sim speed or pause the simulator at 200NM before the ...

Re: Framerate dives regular

The problem is solved! David Vega suggested to install and run alacritypc and this was the key for me to change my thinking about the problem. This must be the most efficient way to run FS9 on any system, I thought. So when I was running FS9 in that way I heard the processor-fan was sounding like it...

Framerate dives regular

Hi, I have a problem with framrate that drops down every 5:th second. It´s most obvious when I use a complex scenery. Example: I´m in short final with a framerate around 13. Every 5:th second it drops to 3-5 fps. With that low framerate it is impossible to make a smooth landing. You should be happy ...

Re: New Poll:Which Flight Sim Do You Use For SAX Flights?

It´s only a few weeks since I definitely erased FS2002 and I can trust my FS9. :oops: I think I will stick to FS9 for a while now. Also there is a few questions if PMDG, FsNav and others will run under FSX ( I assume, have´t looked into it). But the main reason for me not to start use FSX, besides t...

I also voted "don't care". I love the MD aircraft and I fly it in Scandinavia but since I bought PMDG B737 I have became a "Boeing-freak". So when I want to make a MD-flight I change my uniform to Scandinavian Virtual Airlines outfit. 8)

Substitute for FSNavigator?

The old FSNavigator 4.7 will not be upgraded for FSX. Have a look at their websight http://www.fsnavigator.com/ As you can see they will make a complete rebuild of FSNav and therefore not a free upgrade for us who already have the old version. In that case I will have to by the new FSNav 5.0 or does...

B737 winglets

I´ve noticed at the photos from the last Fly In in Vienna, that all of you have winglets on your 737:s. Is it PMDG you fly? If so, how can I get the winglets?

Just curious. :roll:

Thank you gentlemen!
Sunair is a very nice and friendly Virtuell Airline, so I will go on for the next salary raise at 1000 hours. When I get back to STL later on today, I will spend my first raise on a pocket warm scotch single malted whisky: Ardbeg 17 years old. 8)
