Aircraft Aviation

Okay, whilst the CDU still doesn't work I have some good news. Opencockpits have been very friendly and have agreed to give me the full refund as they should. I'll only be loosing around

Thanks guys. Not really too much of a loss - I'd rather loose

Thursday 25th March I am extremely saddened to write the following message, I hope you all understand. Unfortunately, due to issues beyond my control, The Opencockpits CDU will have to be returned for a refund. It refuses to work under my Computer's DVI output. I have tried making custom resoltutions... All failed. This means that I'll be loosing around

Very impressive Orbx YSTW Scenery on the last shot .

Wednesday 24th March THE CDU HAS ARRIVED!!!!!!!! Well, it's finally time to say hello to our new friend. The Opencockpit's B747 CDU has arrived. The bad news is, is that it dosn't accept the signal from my computer (DVI -> VGA -> RCA). Oh... And you didn't think I was going to leave you guys without photos did you! I apologise for the out-of-focusness, it seems my very old camera is not thestallion it once was. Jack

Thanks very much Phil! That's (almost) twice in a row! Will post later tonight.

Cheers Mut... And guess what's just arrived... More later.

Hey MM, I've got a link to "Leeksecon" for you right here:

Well, I still can't see the name in your screenshot post... But, if you got the Three Sisters clue, then you must know what it is! So well done Dai, looking forward to the next one! :nea:

Hey MM, I take it you are referring to the CDU Gauge? Basically, I'll be using the LDS767 CDU Gauge, repositioned onto the CDU screen using Nico Kaan's "Leeksecon" Software. I'll grab a link to "Leeksecon" later for you. Hope this answers your question, tell me if you need more answers, Jack :nea:

Almost there Dai! You got the picture but the name (and ICAO, but may let you off that one). The name is as important as the picture! And yes RB, will have a go at dutch next time!

Another few clues: - A moth flew in here once that was looking to win something... - Three women, probably related, standy high nearby

Very sorry for the late post guys! Unfortunately not had time to get onto the Sim at the moment, so here we are with another google pic: Clues: - This airport has sloped, very rugged runways - You might find some Art-deco houses areound this area - A film was shot around this area, a mystery film

Hey George, It's actually FSX, with REX2.

CDU has been despatched, not arrived yet. So get your votes in! :biggrin:

Thanks very much, and OOO Joe beat you by 4 minutes! Close one! Will post later tonight.

That would be Stockholm-Bromma Airport, ESSB.

Unfortunately Aeroflot succumb to competition as BA dump a house on one of their Aircraft.

Sure thing, I didn't realise we have not had that theme yet. Consider it up after Jack's/Soya's suggestion. Cheers Awesome! Glad you liked my suggestion! Will be really intersting to see what turns up. There are a whole number of crafts that fall into this category!

What a crazy decent!

Since the CDU has been ordered, the poll will end soon! Remember, you have until the day after it arrives! So please votteeee!!!!

All the cables have arrived, only thing left is the CDU. Looking good!

Hey Joe, Take a look at this... Treasure to my eyes! Just found that under the description of my GTX285!

Joe!!!! Why did you post these! You've just gone and robbed me of another 30 quid! I gotta buy PNW, Darrington or Starks now! Lets hope the CDU works and I don't loose

I can barely squeeze a Seneca II into Courcheval! It's VERY difficult!
