Hey Kip
Well i have found CAD drawings which i modified a little for my switch sizes etc but mostly stuck top the design about 90% - didn't want to reinvent the wheel at all. :)
Yeah i guess it is a little technical but luckily I have enough skill…
Hey Kip
Though sometimes i think it simpler to make a fire with it lol
LOL Kip
The wood i was refering too was for my cockpit MIP and MCP lol... but yeah I am with you on the other! I have an old fireplace and though it can be a bit of work I prefer it. But we are also lucky because our winters are nort as cols as in…
Hey there Charles

I need to get the wood cut now which i have and it is the thought of it all makes me procrastinate but i think also a contribut…
Hey Kip
Oh i DO understand the frustrations about being in command NOT to mention AIs that lose rep grrrrrrr

LOL Kip
Well i haven't had that yet :)
Hey Kip
I just tried MRLM lol... well i was usin default scenery in FSX and i had trees at the one end LOL - wasn't too bad. However, i was setting up a flight from an airport slightly north - forget the name - and it had trees growing on it LOL
Hey Charles
TileProxy is a no go for me as my internet connecton is 3G and though 7.2Mb/sec the data useage costs are astronomical as we do not have copper lines where we are due to constant cable thefts. However, I am awaiting a possible WiMax ins…
Hey Charles
I am not hung up on the i7 lol i upgraded a year ago and cost me an arm and leg and now it is old LOL it is a Quad Q9500 CPU - it is ok for now :) we all can't do what we want to do hehehe i just upgraded when i could and just recently…
Hey there Kip

Hey Charles
That scenery looks AWESOME!!! I wish i could get scenery as good for South Africa!!
Cool :) I shall do that! Oh my home base is actually MYAM however, also few feet from the beach :)
hmmmm - 30 tons! Tht seems less than the C130 which is around 90000 pounds which is around 45tons...
Rather get the C130 for hauling LOL
keep 'em a…
Hey Kip
Sounds like TONS (excuse the pun) of fun hehehe. 32 million? hmmmm not TOO bad. What does it carry in LBS? lastly ;) I always use a certain amout of flaps when taking off. Always adds lift at these low speeds.
Hey Kip
GOOD One lol!! Hey Kip, if you like (are you using default scenery?) I can extend your runway for your home base ;) What length does it need?
Keep 'em airborne!!
Hey Kip
good for you buddy!! Yeah i have a DC3 and the Bellanca for my own uses. I LOVE the Baron. My AI's don't know what a break is yet - i hope they don't have families LOL. I need to get my rep up again an AI lost a point again 2 days ago which…
AH Thanks Pierre. I will remember that. I have my runway slider at max LOL. Strangely the other day i had a load to an airport hat was too big for any other plane, unless it did 4 trips, so i used the C130 and AI and it was too short LOL
But i will…

- Hey Derek - you are MOST welcome. Glad it helped :) It was the best "fix" I could think of for your requirement :) Well I was flying from Hong Kong to Johannesburg (FAJS) tonight with a 747-200. I was using FSAirlines - virtual airline - and then i paused it so i could watch movies with the wife and then came back and wasn't far from landing and didn't realize my altitude to I turned on my landing lights only to realize I wasn't below 10,000 feet so I was penalized - i canceled the flight and Now have to do it again LOL - what a pain!!
Oh well - these things happen LOL - the point is; I know and understand frustration - it has become a companion on my long flights hehehe

- Thanks Sean. I followed your excellent advice and now have the airspeed without the boxes. Yesterday i flew from San francisco to Salt Lake city and landed in the fog, then on to Witchita and another successful landing. Today maybe in to Chicago.
It has been snowing here for four days and nights so this morning I will have to go and shovel the driveway at around 10 degrees below zero with a brisk wind. Brrrrrrrrrr
Thanks again for the tip.

- Ah ok i get what you are saying. What you could try is to press Shift+Z and it will give you info at the top of the screen. You can press it upto 3 times before it removes the info again but that will show your altitude and speed. See if that works for you. Hope so. I usually use Virtual Cockpit and then you can raise yourself in the seat if needed.

- Thanks Sean When I am on short final I press W to remove the instrument panel so that I can see to land but there are info boxes right in the road of the runway view, and if I press W again they are gone but I need to see the airspeed for landing.
