Yes I love my Dash 8, had it in FSX, but haven't flown it as yet in P3dv4. I think the FMC or FMS, whatever you want to call it, is a bit more difficult to use properly, as compared to the 737NGX FMC. Once the throttles and props are set up properly in CPAN, it handles very well. But it is a busy cockpit, that for sure.

Hi Wayne, I had a similar problem with my C drive. It was only a 120 GB SSD, and it filled up rapidly, until it was in the red. I obtained a 450GB SSD and transferred all the data including the O/S to the new drive. The guy who did it for me used a program called Acronis, obtainable on the internet. Haven't had any problems since. I have all my flightsim stuff on E drive, a 1TB HDD. Cheers, Neil

Well!, Am I a happy chappy. bit the bullet, and completely uninstalled P3Dv4, and did a another install, this time making sure that I used the proper entry in E drive. Completed the install, and then installed the Majestic. It went straight in, no problems at all. Thanks to all who tried to help, with their input. Much appreciated. Cheers, Neil

Like the old comedy skit about the scandinavian tourist who goes into the chemist's shop for deodorant: "Oh, helooo, I am wanting some deodorant, please." "Ball or aerosol?" "Neither, I want it for my armpits." -
It was a 500mb download. Finally found the addons.cfg, and the only entrant was my A2A aircraft. I manually added the Majestic. After saving, rebooting, and starting the sim, it still did not appear. Don't know why my PMDG aircraft wasn't there, but they are in the sim, and flyable. I feel as if I am going around in circles, and getting nowhere fast. Would FSX have any bearing on this problem? Am seriously considering on giving up, deleting the lot and downloading a full install of the pro version. But if I have the same problem, it will be a fair sum of money to waste. Neil

Hi Joe, Apologies for the late reply. I downloaded the upgrade from PC Australia, which came in the form of a zip file. When I open it, the executable is named mjc8-400-Pilot-1_020x640inst.exe. Just like yours does, apart from the Pilot bit. When I run the exe, the download box appears, and I took your advice, and entered E:\Majestic. The small "next" button opened. On clicking that, a large box appeared named "Windows Installer" with the following narrative. "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the applica

Hi Guys, Have downloaded an upgrade version of the Majestic Dash 8-Q 400, for P3Dv4 as I had an FSX version. When I open the zip file, and go to the installer, it will not let me put it into my E: Drive. I have my PMDG 737NGX and A2A aircraft installed there. The destination Folder is E:\ , but the little "next" box is greyed out. I have never had a problem with this destination before. Have tried a few iterations of E drive, such E/ P3Dv4, E/Dash 8. etc. It goes through the motions, but it doesn't install into the sim. Feeling a bit lost at the moment!! Neil

American Football and the Blonde Of all the blonde jokes, this one has to be one of the best -- because it finally makes sense of American football! A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game, and they had great seats right behind their team's bench. After the game, he asked her how she liked it. "Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and all the big muscles, but I just couldn't understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents." Dumbfounded, her boyfriend asked, "What do you mean?" "Well, they flippe -

A new Red Indian baby was born with one bollock. In the time honoured tradition he was named Onestone! When Onestone reached manhood he was getting very pissed off at being called Onestone so he stood on the speakers rock and said that he would kill anyone else who called him Onestone from that day onwards. A few days later a beautiful squaw called Blue Bird comes to the village, sees him and shouts, hi there Onestone, how is it hanging? Well Onestone loses it, drags her into his Teepee and shags her solidly for two whole days and two whole nights until she dies of exhaustion! A couple of -
