Add-ons like AIG can put a huge performance hit on airports such as LAX, but you have to try and be sensible and tone down the settings on traffic (framerates can drop to 20-25fps at LAX). Although nice to see it in action, dealing with a busy airports with 50-100 flights all moving about (on the ground and in the sky) is a bit of a nightmare if all you want to do is fly. And, I don't want to spent 30 minutes plus, waiting to take off. Less busy airports like Auckland and Wellington don't suffer from that problem. I haven't invested in any add-on aircraft for MSFS yet (but I did have a lot of...

*DO* figure out the bit about linking GUIDs to letters so you can refer to your USB devices by a letter instead of device number - it's not hard, and it will save you HOURS of frustration when (not if) your computer decides to renumber your devices because they didn't all clock in in the usual order one bootup.

Aye, more than you will ever suspect, Charl. On many of the fora I subscribe to, the split is most usually distributed: 55% FSX, 45% FS9. Admittedly, that's an unscientific analysis, but we're still out there. /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

You might want to try out Tiny Windows 11 then. I'm actually quite happy with Win11 on both my work laptop and sim PC. Neither have missed a beat. I have an older laptop - currently running Linux Mint (Ubuntu), which behaves 90% of the time but installing a new(er) Wi-Fi printer was a bit of a mission. I wish I'd seen the video in your link before!!!

Thanks guys...the Honeycomb ones look very good but a bit beyond my budget...and maybe not available here? Might just go with new logitech ones. My other pedals have been second hand so it would be nice to just get some new ones.

Yes, plenty of people upgrade things like monitors so have some nice gear for sale, it's probably the way I'd go these days. I was thinking that if I still lived in Canty I'd pop around with my old one, but that must be 10 years old now, so probably not the best solution anyway:)

Well, my new laptop even though very powerful will be used for general purposes for me which includes screenshot editing and publishing. I do not think that in view of much superior MS2020, it is worth for me to buy P3Dv5. I plan to buy another separate laptop for use of MS2020 in 2 years or so OR when MS2020 has ALL planes that FSX has especially all historic jet planes whenever comes first. Regards, Aharon

Marty, if it is not in your Recycle Bin, I have a backup of my FSX as was at 2019, including the Awesome Foursome NAC Freighter If those 4 repaints intended for FSX Steam work in FSX Deluxe with SP1 and SP2, can I have those repaints, please? Regards, Aharon

Hmmm. Thanks for that. Perhaps I'll keep an eye on TM and save for later. Just wondering whether Unreal Engine 5 will *require* the RTX ray tracing features or not. Cheers

Thanks for that; on reading the linked page, and the page further linked, I'll leave it off for now and install later when it is updated. Cheers.

This is the Quad setup with the 'Commercial' levers, for a 4-engine jet or turboprop. Slot one is now for the speed brake and slot six has flaps movement in a range from 0° to 40° down, marked as 1°, 2°, 5°, 10°, 15° etc. The Flaps up/down switch is hidden in the pic by throttles 3 & 4. For the Concorde it is used for the droop snoot function. You can see how the levers are stepped so that they nest together. Throttle lever 1 has a TOGA button on the left.. So, if you just want to set up for a twin, remove levers 2 and 4 and bring throttle 1 across to slot three, to nest with throttle 3....
