LKPR.JPG Very nice freeware scenery for Prague's Ruzyne International Airport (LKPR) at http://www.lkpr-scenery.wz.cz/en/index.php . One download for both FS9 and FSX. Read the installation instructions to correctly install the appropriate version. SunAir Europa services this airport from Zurich an...

New FREE scenery for Mauritius International Airport (FIMP) here: http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=157772. We have two flights, 5512, 5513 with service from/to LSZH. While this one is for FSX, I understand the author will release one for FS9 soon.

500 hrs! This means time for new pants, right?

Congratulations

Good post Bob. In an earlier posting, Dave Blake said this VA belonged to all of us. He's using all tools available to get all opinions heard: polls, questions, etc. It is regretable that some have reached conclusions before a final decision has been reached, and I hope those decisions are reconside...

Pete, note I didn't say to leave SAX, but just to join another VA just to compare. It was only a suggestion.

Regards,

Danny, Sorry it isn't what you expected. There are some virtual airlines that should be designated as flying clubs, and there are some that would not allow you to fly unless one of them manually dispatches your flight. We are trying to keep the original intent of simulating flying for a real airline...

For the St. Louis Hub (KSTL), use gates on Concourse D.

I do, one of my favorites. Enjoy those long flights. I am sure you are anticipating your B747 rating.

Excellent Xavier. Do you have the Level-D B767?

Glad you like it Al. Check this one for Sacramento International (KSMF) http://www.projectopensky.com/index.php ... owfile=786.

New scenery for FS9 has been released. It's free! Go get it here: http://www.sunskyjet.com/index.php?action=sceneries. This is a payware quality scenery at no cost.

Looks like they're working on the FSX version.

Glenn,

What errors did the patch address? Is there enough fuel tank space on the BBJs?

All We won't get "too serious." As Marty points out, there are other VAs out there that are way more "serious" than SAX. At the same time there are some that are way less "serious" than SAX. The original founder wanted it to be as real as possible, but we haven't gotten...

Congratulations Peter. Long, long flights ahead.

It looks like they are. This is actually a B757 and not a 767. You can see the aircraft registration on the panel. See this pic: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Finnair/Boeing-757-2Q8/1193632/L/ . I understand that pilots who fly one are rated to fly the other. Can anyone who knows comment? David Veg...

Peter, congrats. Get ready for long flights. Here's the best photo I've seen of how busy will you be in a B767.

Congratulations Peter. Watch out for those sudden rudder movements.

Here's a good site that offers reference materials on procedures, etc. http://www.smartcockpit.com/ Are you flying our freeware B767 or the Level-D commercial product? That autopilot behavior doesn't sound right. You should descend to your approach altitude at the initial approach fix intercepting t...

It's nice to see all this forum activity. I agree with SAX767, this should not feel like work, it's a hobby. But I have to ask, why does it feel like work? Could it be that, like in the game of golf where one basically plays against oneself, but one continues playing to get better? From our Operatio...

Congratulations Phil, well done.
