I'm getting back to flt sim after a few years and I'm looking for a basic joystick, something similar to the old MS Sidewinder. I do not want force feedback. 1) I assume the above mentioned Logitech is a reasonable choice. Right? 2) I'm running XP Home. Is there software to install with this...

Hi all. Just got this on Amazon for $27.00! wow great looking game! But surely there must be a way to use it without having disc 4 in the drive? The instx dont mention a way of course. Is there a patch that someone can point me to that works easily, as Im a computer hack.

Does anybody know where to get some performance specs on the Bonanaza A36? Beta testing this aircraft for a software company and would like to see how close the simulation comes to true aircraft performance. If there are any sites I cam look at, I would appreciate it

I keep failing in the same place: in the second segment of the flight where I have to lend at S43, after the lending the examinator says "breached at least two tolerances: did not set manifold preasure to 15" for descent and did not extend gear for landing", which is complete bullox: - the gear is...

Will some one write some new flight sim software so I can go out and spend a ridulous amount of money to upgrade my 2.8 Ghz computer in order to run it. There is no incentive now to upgrade as my present box runs everything to my satisfaction. Remember the good ole days of software-hardware...

Hi, running MS FS 2004 on multiple screens is cool. However, I was not able to figure out how I can save a configuration for this. I always have to reopen the extra windows when I restart FS 2004. Is there no chance to save (multiple) configurations for this so I can start with my last setup...

I'm fishing for ideas. I want to make a low cost multiple display airport vehicle simulator to drive around an airport. Good scenery and visual presentation are more important than vehicle dynamics. My first thought is to get a sim like STI vehicle simulator and build or have them build my airport....

I haven't gotten the hang of using the GPS unit so far in FS9. My problem is I set up a flight plan and it gets loaded in the GPS unit and I take off and ATC directs me, etc and everything is fine. In route I find the active runway that I will be landing at. How do I get the localizer info then...

I'm a new X-Planer, and I've been having a lot of fun flying various aircraft from Spitfires to 747's to and from Vancouver International Airport. I'm now able to land more or less safely most of the time (depending on the aircraft), but I often have trouble stopping the aircraft after landing....

I recently decided to clean up my computer by uninstalling fs2004, getting rid of any freeware add-ons I don't use but have installed, and then reinstalling fs2004. The only catch is that one of the freeware planes I installed overwrote the fs2004 uninstaller with its own. I checked out...
