I've just been rummaging through my loft I've found a copy of this great early space flight simulator from Microsoft. It does come with some great scenarios like docking a spacecraft with the space station from 2001 and loads of Apollo docking and landing scenarios. It comes with full musical...

I'm slowly moving everything to XP Pro SP-1, due to MS-es non-support of Win98. I've upgraded still to all available patches since this late , OS was released. The first problems I've discovered with using sim apps on it was that IL-2 absolutely would not run. Even with everything else shut...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are one step closer to someday matching — and possibly surpassing — their human-piloted counterparts, thanks to the completion of a project successfully tested by Georgia Tech and sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the U.S. Air...

Hi When I use some of my plane for FS2002 in FS9 the propellers are missing, not on all planes but some, and the rotor is missing on my favorit helicopter ( EH102) it looks wrong. Does anybody know why and how to fix it. Cheers Benny EKYT

Does anyone know of a model editor for Real Flight G2, like GMAX for M$ FS and CFS series? TIA

Ex-Pilote de Chasse de l'Armée de l'Air, et "volant", actuellement sur... Flight Simulator 2004, je souhaiterais que quelqu'un m'indique la procédure pour télécharger d'autres types d'appareils. Entre autres : le F-100 SuperSabre, le F-84 F Thunderstreak et le...North Ameraican T-6 Merci par...

I know Flightsim doesn't model it however does anyone remember which of the past Flight sim products did model the effects of flying through rain...I was thinking more of Sierra's "Pro Pilot" or Looking Glass' "Flight Unlimited" as I thought one of them did this for jet engined aircraft. Cheers.

I've designed an aircraft and I have a presentation to give on monday morning. I would really like to have a working model of the aircraft in x-plane v.7 for my stand, but I can't get it right. I have put the wing in and the control geometry. The engine, cg location, artificial stability and speed...

The Intel 82915G/GV/910GL chipset has a feature of 'flipping' or rotating the monitor. Normally, you would have to click Start Button Settings Control Panel DOUBLE CLICK Intel(4) GMA Driver Click the ROTATION tab on top if Enable Rotation is checked, uncheck it and click APPLY, then...

The basic selection of aircraft for FS2004 is... well, basic. I managed to pick up a Zenth Zodiac XL. I'm looking for other options, particularly higher performance single-engine cruising airplanes. The Mooney is OK, but are there any others available? TIA,

I was just thinking of the most interesting place I landed a plane in a simulator and thought the most interesting was landing a Cessna into the cruise ship's swimming pool in Flight Unlimited 3. The ship sails back and forth in Seattle. Of course the first thing I normally do when I start any new...

I must be stupid. I have installed the Lovett MAY 2004 on FS 2004. I get confused at the L-click / R-click "menu" that appears when MAY is active and one presses LMB or RMB. The author does not yet have any instructions for actually using this program. I -can- control the aircraft with it and...

Is it possible to move an aircraft in MSFS either graphically or by numbers (lat and long, alt, heading, IAS) easily? Right now it appears I have to fly into the position/configuration I want and then save it. If I want to practice approaches at different airports, holding patterns (ADF, VOR,...

Hi Guys, A previous thread about GPS data got me thinking about moving maps on my IPAQ 1945. I don't have a GPS system for the PDA, but would like to know if there are moving map applications that I could use on it with FS2002/04 and ActivSynch? Anyone doing this? D

Do any sims such as MS 2004 simulate thermal activity? TIA

It's been many moons since I last posted in RAS but sparing all a long story which would place you in Z-Land forthwith as to the why of that, I 'rediscovered' my otherwise 10 year flight sim hobby and am getting back into it ... slowly but surely. Ditto, after this, rec.av.piloting because,...
