Unable to page through preflight items

Post by namron2 »

Hi

If I am on the window to do all the preflight checks, I only get the first page. If I try to click on the arrows to move to the next screen, nothing happens?
Using FSX and W10.

Thanks

Also, have you shut down the engine? You can't preflight the aircraft if the prop is turning. :wink:

Thanks,
Nick

That was it !!!!
Thanks Nick Makes a lot of sense I feel like a complete fool now!



I do have another question. Is there another way to change the nav frequency without using the mouse? My mouse wheel is linked to my camera software so I can't use it for freq change??


Thanks again

No problem! Something like that would certainly be self-evident in real life, but in the sim it's easy to overlook. :)

From memory, you should be able to adjust frequencies using the Shift 6 "Quick Radios" panel without using the mouse wheel.

Thanks,
Nick

Just to tag on at the end here, don't feel like a fool. Being a fool would be not posting at all and just suffering with an issue without asking for help. No stupid questions here on the forums, we are here to help if in doubt, even if it might seem silly, please don't be afraid to post, its best to post than not too.

thanks and happy flying in the virtual skies,
Lewis
