Important to do the Preflight

[cessnaman]

I just love this sim. The other day I needed some work done on the airplane and after maintenance was done with it. I was doing my preflight and noticed that they left tape on the static port. Never had this happen before when the plane was in for maintenance, so it does goes to show that it is very important to do that preflight.
Keep the realism coming guys. Looking forward to the fuses, I did notice when the mouse is over them i get the hand as if I can click on them, but nothing happens, so at least I hope this may be a feature soon.

Thanks,

I had a rag stuck in the cowling air cooling intake of the 182 the other day. It just makes it so much more fun when stuff like this happens!

Yup, I had a dodgy flap that I didnt pick up until landing that was nearly a sim fatality

Haven't had any of those yet. Except the other day I left the cherokee in pristine shape only to return and find the prop damaged and crankshaft. I guess this is either a bug or a gremlin

Nope sounds like normal to me, looks like whilst you where away someone backed a car into your aircraft or some such.

I am so impressed with the realism portrayed with this aircraft ..

Just got back into flight simming after a hiatus, but was flying over northern England in the 172, messing with PlanG, Ezdok and the such but crashed FSX... Reloaded and started the flight but didn't go through the pre-flight to save time and wouldn't you know that FSX was having problems with reading my controllers....

Or so I thought - was having to carry loads of left airleron - recalibrated my controller - problem persisted - put the plane down, was taxiing and went to an outside view and noticed the right airleron was hanging down - broken control wire .... here I was swearing at windows and FSX... Got to love this Accusim stuff

The best thing I like is the ability to select Damage OFF under your shift + 3 so if I only have 10mins for a quick blast whilst the kids are taking a nap I can do a quick blast without worry
