    Ice Pilots

    Nice pic's Sabre, you made a rather bleak winter scenery look inviting. Its funny, I just flew a Ice Pilot mission (upload by Ole at FlightSimulatorXMissions,com) that required the download for this plane and the final destination was Yellow Knife. The scenery for the airport is also included. I did enjoy the aircraft and she looked great too. I also installed the green cockpit upgrade which was supposed to fix a pixel problem. I kinda like the green interior.
  2. That is beyond awsome. I could picture myself planted in one spot, gawking for way too long, while my wife is trying to drag me along, only interested in the gift shop. I think it was maybe here that someone posted a news video about the making of the airport that was interesting.
  3. Thanks for the info, I have found it along witth a manuel and can now read up on it. Wasn't sure what it was when I read trough the AH book and typing FSUIPC in my search bar didn't show any folders or files come up in my laptop. That cheating ho is with David now, so I'm done with her. What I'm worried about is, the guy I sent to rough up Fodder isn't answering his phone, so now I can't cancel the contract. Don't say anything or i'll end up having to pay for his hospital bills.
  4. Thanks guys, The P47 does look very appealing to fly but I'm not sure I would fly it as much as I would the Cub. It does look like it would be a pretty cool diversion from my sightseeing type flying though, blasting through valleys with all that power. In the past I have found the old warbirds with their short wings a bit twitchy to control but this one looks like it rides a bit smoother. Well there is always Christmas.....
  5. Glad you found the problem. I always get nervous when these things happen and I hate computers too. They do the darndest things out of the blue, like they ran out to the garage and forgot what they went out there to get. I noticed that AH loaded a FSUIPC thingee along with the program itself. Was curious and I tried looking for it and can't seem to locate where it is. Would anyone be kind enough to tell me where it might be?(I run Vista)
  6. Hi Jim, AH never seems to put the loads in the correct sections and I do it manually before each takeoff. The load distribution in my dh2 Beaver is very sensitive to where it is placed. I tried looking up some information on the C17 and there's not much of it availible. I did not find anyone else that had the same problem as you so the search didn't go well. There were some comments about the companies very slow responses for support. I noticed the fact that you are flying it in AHauler, have you tried flying it it free flight? Have you tried a delete/reload of the whole thing? Very odd prob
  7. Hitting the "Alt" button once doesn't work to bring up the menu bar? Is it the whole toolbar or just the Addon buttton? If it's just the button, something might have got messed up in your dll.cfg file.
  8. It's usually something simple Jim. Go through the manual step by step. Some of these payware aircraft are complicated and everything needs to be just right. Have you tried setting the trim to minus side numbers. Heavy weights can require this for take off. Check all the gauges and see what is low at full thrust and you might be able to narrow it down. Fuel pumps on?
  9. Thanks Sabre. I'm a little shocked that your a big fan of A2A. I never would have guessed. I am a big fan of their AccuFeel product, it has added to the feel of the sim immmensely IMO. I'm hopeing that they will be able to get the cabin noises to come alive during in flight turbulance soon. I'm going to talk the wife into getting me one of their aircraft for my B-day, hmmm now which one to choose first............
  10. Sorry to hear. Everyone I know that was offered early retirement took it and have been very happy with their choice.(more money) It's a bit scary making changes but in the long run you will enjoy having a change of pace. Although things are tough in the employment arena, jobs can be found for those that look hard enough. Good luck.
  11. ROAD TRIP! Always a good idea to stop and smell the roses once in a while. They certainly do a nice job on the details. Nice ride, where did you find the car? It would be cool if the gps really worked. Have you ever seen the NYPD Charger, it's been around for some time?(Project Dodge Charger NYPD(maybe atAVSIM)) Pretty neat with flashing lights and working windows. I race the AI taking off at Kennedy airport for kicks when I get bored.
  12. The scenery looks great. Perfect for those nice relaxing Cub flights. I don't fly the Cub to often but I sure am tempted to get that A2A one. I watch their promo vid's and have come close a few times.
  13. Yep, those military planes are way overpriced. They have to make all that kickback money back somewhere. If you have to think about, don't do it. Your just taking the time to justify the purchase in your own mind.
  14. To get noticed Alan, then they will get more customers and more customers =$$$$$$ . Cheer's...Graham... Paint'em white, serve better food and treat the customers like you need them instead of the other way around.
  15. Everett only about 16 nm away so maybe your rep won't take to big a hit. That is only if the rumours are true of course I'm sure the flatlanders in Arlington will miss you though. This is one bad**s looking hauler, might even be able to fit the DC6 in it. I thought filling up the dh2 tanks was expensive, talk about gas pump shock after a fill up in this baby. General characteristics Crew: 3: 2 pilots, 1 loadmaster Capacity: ** 134 troops with palletized seats or 102 troops with standard centerline seats or 36 litter and 54 ambulatory patients or Cargo, such as an M1 Abrams
  16. Good one Dai. Haven't heard that tune in a long time, thanks for stick'in it into my head for today.
  17. Thanks Clem, appreciate it. Now I just have to find where I put the download and then I'm off to tinker Here's one place called Striking Software Edit Sorry missread your post, you already have it. If anyone one else in interested please see link above.
  18. Might be a stupid answer on my part Jim but is the information in the reference section of the kneeboard?
  19. That baby must take up a lot of cans of paint. Looks great!
  20. Thanks for the heads up to this site, has some good stuff on it. Forget sunglasses, I had to don welders goggles for a few of those screenies.

    Nothing like a quick spin.
  22. Pleasure was all mine, great shots.
  23. Love the new digs. Your new corporate center is looking real good. I had noticed the construction going on during a recent flyover but did not know it was your new building being built, congrats. It's a great location and close to Interstate 5 which will be a big help. It was nice having you as a close nieghbor and am sorry to see you go. On the flip side, the resturants are better at Skagit and you still owe me a lunch. Your making some big time cash lately, did you get a government contract?
