A2A Cherokee 180 new install problem

Post by sierragolfflier9701 »

So, so looking forward to flying this spitting image of the G-AXSG I used to fly for real way back then......But...No cockpit view and can't start the damn thing. I've a virtual cockpit panel view, outside views, control tower view etc but no cockpit panel view. I've downloaded and run the latest update for type....
I've installed it on a Win 7 OS m/c with 8 gb onboard memory, AMD Athlon II X2 -250 Graphics on an Asus M5A78L-M-LX5 mainboard.
Because the engine is dormant, dials not working. Any help appreciated.
All other aircraft work OK but the only one I've ever paid for doesn't.

Hello SGflier - welcome to the forums. :)

Please can you let us know which host simulator you're using? (FSX, FSX-SE or P3D?) It sounds like a missing SimConnect library could be the culprit, as described in the FAQ thread.

Also, as with most add-ons, there's no 2-D cockpit so everything is done via the 3-D virtual cockpit.

Cheers,
Nick

Hello and welcome to the forums,

the virtual cockpit is the cockpit view, are you trying to find an old 2d cockpit view? These are not used in modern sims.

Which sim platform are you using?

thanks,
Lewis
