There was a article in Febuary 2006 computer pilot magazine all about gliding and the differant sites to go to to find gliding stuff, even stuff to simulate two ropes I think, here are the links: US soaring team Virtual soaring society Wolfgang pipers Glid Collection Cross country 2004 (avionics) There is also this file name mentioned: ABLWINCH14.zip, It doesn't say were to get it thow so just have a look around, it says itll tow you into the sky.... Aparently according to the article some of Wolfgang's Gliders simulate a winch so give them a try. I'm not sure about the fs9...

Do you mean hes saying you "crashed" when your sitting nicly on the rwy? I suppose its mesured in your touch down descent rate. If you cross the threshold to close to stall speed and still high don't pull throtle to idle like he says just keep it on for a bit longer, that might be the problem, hitting the ground too fast :P have a look at the instant reply too. That can often help sort out whats happening, and have your relisum settings on max cos you could be doing something that would normaly be detected as a crash ;) Always have "hard" settings :D

Thanks Matt. Before I was accessing the File Library off the AVsim homepage, meaning that the URL would come up only as I understand now! :D :D :D :clap:

hahaha I find it hilarious when people call them helicopter drivers we had one guy come up to us at the fieldays and ask if we were the helicopter drivers one of our pilots responses was "sorry we only fly the helicopter none of us are qualified to drive them that requires a whole different license" we all cracked up laughing and a few minutes later the same guy who had asked the question started laughing you can tell we have a sad sense of humour lol those four days were the hardest days to get thru because within arriving at the fieldays you would be in fits of laughter. Thats...

There are two fairly good tutorials that go through creating ai traffic step by step here: and here: Have fun :thumbup:

november copy of "computer pilot" has an article on exactly how to go about doing this - scanning and creating digital maps.

Have a look at this. Might be some help. I think it replaces fixed wing tho too.

Thanks Alister, I might just try out KL0642!

Hey Snowman, I tried to get some photos as I came in, but it they are horrible, so in stead of a million photos when I left, i just took a video... Ill send it to ya or upload it if you want :) And sorry Trolly, I didnt get any decent shots of the ATR, I didnt have time, and I almost missed my flight on the way back :P Ill see what I can fish out tho :P ~ZK-KAG~

Try AI Smooth Choice, thanks very much. It works a treat :D

Holy crap! Looks fun :drool: :drool:

Howdy Trolly, Look in the RPE file structure. Reflections are handled by envmap.bmp. Simply replace the RPE one with the original and no more OTT reflections. As I already use Nick's Light Fix (v.2), ASv6, and a combination of Ed Truthan's Water TX/FX, the freeware PW Water (v.16) and Bill Lyon's OceanHeightField.bmp, RPE just didn't do anything for me. Thanks for alerting me to it, though.

Bill Lyons Tiger Moth Package, with float plane, civillian and military versions of the 'Moth, plus some scenery. Available at avsim under under the name cctiger4.zip In fact, anything frp, 'Bill and Lynn Lyons' is excellent quality. Just hit their names into any sim search engine and your will love the results!

Yeah iv got the airports, they are fantastic.. just want some ai to spice it up a bit.

Apologies to our German listeners - the Brits find it difficult to come to terms with the fact that BMW now own Rolls Royce and VW took Bentley! Some of those can't be real conversations one hopes but I loved the lost student pilot "What was your last known position?" Student: "When I was number one for takeoff." Man, there's some work to be done there... well its more complex than that, Rolls Royce PLC sold the car naming rights to BMW for 40mil, they sold thier automotive division to Vickers who in turn on sold it to VW (so VW couldent build Rolls Royce brand...

I agree as compared to the original Flight simulator back in the 80s you could fly further and there was better detail in the cockpits.
