Could be, or a disgruntled passenger that purchased a ticket far in advance for a date beyond where their provisional license was valid for. By the timing of the events it looks like this happened a couple of hours prior to the news of a new permanent licens was published.

Turns out it was me that had missed it while being knocked out with a nasty flu on Monday when it happened. But all I found was basically what your original link had said. Most likely the articles I found was the source The Daily Mail used.

Strange... haven't seen anything about this in Swedish news sources. Shall see if I can find any more details locally. And not what NextJet needed. They were on a limited license to operate due to financial troubles up until this week when they got a new permanent operational license. Before that they would have needed to shut down operations in mid november, but were still selling tickets beyond that date. And I guess the name of the company confused the poor journalist tasked with writing aviation news, because a TurboProp Jet sounds like a very strange c

Sure does!

As some of you may know I changed employer a few months back after deciding I had grown tired of being a bean counter. As a thank you for 14 years of service I got a gift certificate that among other things could be cashed in for a "Try to fly on your own-Experience". Guess what, I decided to cash it in to go flying!! And last night it was finally time to go flying, and it was a blast even though the cockpit was a tad tight for a guy of my length... Sadly I was to caught up in the moment to even consider taking any photos whilst in the air, and to be honest I don't think I even co

Off course not, but for a prospective buyer it could be relevant information

Good review there Jess, I agree with everything you said!! One note on the price tag though.. it's $99 plus local VAT, so with a 25% VAT here in Sweden for me it cost about $124.

I'm guessing that removing that file did the same thing as removing EGHA in the AEC-tool for Global Vectors. But I'm also guessing it will come back the next time you run the automatic detection in the AEC-tool... As for documentation to read up on this I think it's available in FTX Central, but I'm not at home so I can't confirm or give any more detailed instructions at the moment. (and I still haven't installed version 3, so it really wouldn't be much help even if I was at home). An other option is to dig around in the ORBX folder in your FSX-folder. All PDFs with documentation i

Just a thought here.. In order to be able to assign controllers in FSUIPC I think one needs the registered version....

Assuming one have the bandwidth...

By the looks of it I might wait a couple of days before installing the new Central... Seems like they have a few issues to sort...

And it is now live, so I guess it's November 1st from an Aussie perspective

Isn't there a setting in AH to disable those? Can't check now as I'm at work, but I'm pretty sure there is. Since they are generated from the AH client I doubt it's possible to disable them from within FSX. My guess is that they are generated via FSUIPC, so if it's not in AH perhaps there's a way to disable them in the FSUIPC settings.

Welcome to Mutley's @Peter225! As you mentioned VoxATC, in case you missed it there is a free 60 day trial version of the upcoming version 7 available on their website! http://voxatc.com/Home.aspx/Beta

Yay... must try it as I really like the version I have... But I think you might need to edit the link @mutley... it's currently not working as expected as it point to www.voxatc.xn--com-0da Edit: Ehrm.. or I could always correct it myself.. so disregard the above, the URL is now pointing to the right place.

Good luck with the event! Sadly I won't have time to join in, a friend's 40th birthday got in the way...

What setting was it you changes? Could be good to know so I can refrain from changing it in my never ending search for better FSX-performance

And ORBX Germany north was released late last night... Seems to be a popular release considering the slow speed I managed to get on my downloads (4 files of roughly 2 gigabytes each).

Not an issue I've seen with my Saitek Trim Wheel... But I'm running with Saiteks drivers. It does seem to need to re-initialize itself once I've loaded my flight though.. At first nothing happens when I move it, then I get the windows sound indicating that Windows have found new hardware, and voila it works in FSX... at least on most planes.. Can't get it to function at all in the PMDG NGX or the FSLabs A320. In the NGX turning the wheel will always produce nose up trim regardless of the direction I turn the wheel, and in the FSLabs A320 I get no response at all in the

ORBX are pretty close to finishing up their latest full region, Germany North. It should be released in the near future since their lead tester posted his "final shots" in their preview forum last wednesday.. that's usually a good indicator that a release is imminent. Take a peek here for his shots (you might need to sign up as a user on their forum to see it...) http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/121010-germany-north-my-final-shots/ There's a Google Earth KMZ-file as an indication of the coverage of the scenery, as well as other

Yeah, still the trench effect in that screenshot is kind of mild compared to others I've run into. There are a few in mountainous areas that became impossible to fly to/from after I added FS Global 2010 Mesh. There's one in north western Nepal where I had to circle in tight turns with the Quest Kodiak to get out of the trench, and that plane climbs like a bat out of hell. And I also seem to recall an airport in Western North Carolina where it was a challenge to take off and get out of the trench even in a helicopter. The runway was surrounded by steep mounta

You are indeed correct John, there have been no reports on this either ways as far as i've seen... My intention was to include a "if they were indeed open/not properly secured" in my post, but I guess I lost my chain of thought while writing

There is in the SP, at least according to the release notes from JF and the video below But as the guy flying in the video mentions it's not in the "configuration window" accessible from within FSX, where you add stairs, pitot covers etc, but rather in a windows program that can be found in the start menu..

Do you have FTX Vectors as well? If so perhaps you can sort it out via the Airport Elevation Correction (I think it's called) settings... If not, perhaps it's possible to adjust the elevation of the airport so it matches the surrounding ground elevation according to the Mesh using and AFCAD-editor of some sort, but when it comes to scenery editing I'm kind of out of my comfort zone as far as FSX goes

HI Wayne. I knew of the issue but didn't know it could be changed from within Nvidia control panel. I use Nvidia Inspector to manage various driver settings for my graphics card, some that can't even be adjusted in detail from the Nvidia control panel. It's a nice little freeware program where different settings can be set for different games/sims, available here. http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/nvidia-inspector-download.html The only downside is that one needs to reapply the profiles for each game when the drivers are updated. Thankfully I only use it for settings
