American Airlines Virtual

Is the POSKY model better? Yes, I guess so. The trick is, to "merge" POSKY model and texture to work with PSS panel. I wanted the extra model details (pushback tug, stairs, etc.) but wanted the extra cockpit switches and detail. Problems? You bet, I did find a work around but it's quite in...

Yes, I also finally rolled over and bought some a/c for the hangar. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! These payware jets are not for the beginner though!!! I cannot stress this enough! I did get the Maddog 80 (with AA texture), and there was a re-learning curve and it took a while. You gotta like to read manuals, ...

I was in the same predicament not so long ago. I had been flying the POSKY, but the panel left much to desired. Go with this (for what it's worth): If you don't care so much about cockpit detail, but still want the long haul adventure, stick with a POSKY model/texture. Be advised there are numerous ...

Some good jabs, both flight crew and attendants!!! AAV786 Pete Looks like Southwest and Kulula should merge. This is very funny. The planes are funny, but the actual attendant’s comments after the photos are hilarious! Please scroll down and read. Kulula is a low-cost South-African airline that does...

Sigh....Montgomery Alabama. When I went over to the desert, that was one of our sister units. That changed (probably) after the last base realignment. He came in very hot, fast. Should have had enough fuel to go around, fly rwy heading till the busy KOSH tower could reestablish a new approach. I've ...

Engine starting woes. I myself just upgraded to the Maddog MD80 and have a few engine anomalies myself. For the MADDOG, some of the default keyboard assignments do not work. (CTRL E to start!) You have to read the manuals and (in the case of MADDOG), wouldn't hurt to run through the tutorial a coupl...

hoorray!!! Now you too can land at KJAC :) It's nice, now you can get out and stretch on those longer flights

Please take note: Project Open Sky website will cease operations effective Dec. 1st. For more complete information, check their website immediately. Sounds like the gubmint got their sticky noses in a good situation; this has forced the administrator to resign (for real). If you want any of POSKYs t...

Thank you, thought I was gone for good. Had some connectivity issues for a week or two. Couldn't log in, file PIREPS, forums nothing worked. Got it working today though, this old man still can fix a couple things.

Greetings! Just to update the situation, and I don't mean the Jersey Shore slick hair guy either :mrgreen: The good folks at fscommander got wind of the problem, released version 9.0.0.1 for FS9. Downloaded the patch, installed to overwrite and now fsc flight plans can be saved on FS9. Seems to be o...

I tried to upgrade from FSNav to FScommander v 9.0 for FS9 and it has mucho bugs!!! Seems to affect all systems regardless of Win 7, XP and FSX. I am currently "grounded" cause I cannot generate any flight plans in FS9 from FSC. They are working on the problem at simflight.com. I like the ...

The Eagle it is..looks like ORD G terminal, mid afternoon turn around time. 2nd place...into the sun, even if it is a Super 80 :lol: . Sorry the Taco Rocket doesn't do it, except for the catchy title (Maybe because "Taco Rocket" is a synonym for the morning after a night of drinking with a...

congrats from the windy city. wont be long till that senior checkride!!!! then we hit you with 10 LONG haul flights as initiation!! :)

Here's what I would do to remove certain default AI from FS9. 1st...find a program that will de-compile the .bgl file to a text file. There are a couple programs you can dload from AVSIM/Flightsim. My favorite is AITM version 2 which works for FS9, not sure about FSX. Or a program called TTools, whi...

Welcome to the windy city. Hope you like crosswind landings!! :)
