John, Thank you so much for the kind remarks! I appreciate that a lot! Yup, VATSIM has not really impressed me either. So to each his own of course but I too will continue to seek ATC needs elsewhere. I think it would be rather enjoyable to establish "Flight School" so to speak (there probably is one somewhere) where RW pilots/instructors could team up with FS enthusiasts (much in the spirit of a golfing coach say) to help folks work out issues and questions they may have in real time. Heck it keep salty dogs like myself fresh and it would improve peoples enjoyment of aviation at many l

Well I tried the VATSIM route and was disapointed. I tried to sign up and because someone else has my last name, a manual install had to be attempted. Or manual registration to be precise. Then when I installed the software for it, the software crashed FSX. I said no thank you in a hurry, deleted the software, and no longer pursue the registration. Not a good first experience. I speant way too many hours tuning my system and FSX to NickN's tuning guide to mess up my install.

:icon_bowdown: Wow very facinating. I studied programming in college and it has been a while. Besides I was learning a much dummer language (PASCAL) My thoughts for wanting to do this would be to adjust approaches at KMSP to hopefully give (whichever ATC in use) altitudes to "respect" so to speak to get rid of that low level vectoring. It appears to me that manipulating the various [altitude1=XXXX.XX] might be the way to go? If I read your posts correctly though you said RC4 would take care of that though by doing a fairly good job of respecting altidudes? After perculating the ide

Thanks again you guys for all your help and feedback on this!!! This is great. I really like asking those who really use the program for their reviews thoughts and opinions. Yours have been very good and informative. Again thanks so much!! John, If you don't mind, I have some RW experience "notes" if you will. Insofar as Flight Plans go and SIDS STARS too. It is all a function of time of day and location. Mornings out of Tetorborough NJ, you will find yourself with no choice but to fly a full DP no questions asked. As for the flight plan say to KMSP? LOL Can we say RE-ROUTE! Is

All I would add to this is that this program was designed well, however I have been having some troubles with it. But not to worry as it is a VFR only planning tool. FOR THAT it is awesome. I need an IFR planner. I did spend some time with it but it is not to my liking. Thank you though so much for that I will look at FS Planner.

ALLARDJD: :001_th_smiles76: That is a small world that you know the area. I grew up here. I received my PPilot's license at KFCM. Soloed at 17. Its been a few months since then. :th_smiles73: I also studied at UND http://www.ftc.aero.und.edu/ Grand Forks. Did your daughter stay or move on? This area is quite cold in the winter for sure. My wife is from Georgia however she does like it up here, as the summers are to die for! Actually Spring Summer Fall are all extremely pleasant. Thanks STU and GABE!! OOOOOOOOOOPS! I am using FSX GOLD My Rig/Software stats are in my signature bl

Dear Mutley and Friends, I read your review Mutley on Radar Contact and it seems as if you know something about the software. I am a RL pilot and in need of ATC practice and I would like to know if this program is up for the challenge. I currently fly Feelthere's Ejets V2. I am using FSX Gold on a brand new machine I just built. I can give you specs if needed. Here goes. 1. Does RC4 give you the ability to do multiple approaches at one airport for practice. 2. Does RC4 provide any sort of inflight emergency handling. For instance Loss of Comm. Engine Fire/Failure. Let your imagina
