Re: B-17 Enclosed Home Cockpit Project

cheers Bill for the link. Hope to get started in a few months when I am less busy. Need some switch wiring practice too! As I fly a wide variety of mainly prop planes will be more of a GA pit.
Regards,
Fred

Re: B-17 Enclosed Home Cockpit Project

This simpit really is a work of art. Well done. Out of interest, what shade of green is the B17s cockpit known as? I may make something similar to the simulator at The Mighty 8th museum.

Re: Greetings again after a long absence!

Thanks very much David- looking at TASoftware now. It looks just the job! Once I've cured my FSX' random CTD when clicking on the menu options I will give it a go!

Re: FSX,Accelleration, Add-ons install order

Cheers Skycat. I spent most the day uninstalling-reinstalling and did it Rex-first. It's a lot harder uninstalling FSX than it is installing!! I decided to reinstall due to the screen tearing (ATI 4890 here) and I had convinced myself that it had worked fine before all the add ons, but, I tried it e...

Re: A2A Wings of Power II:B17 at the Mighty Eighth Museum

I recently got the roger dodger keyboard mod for ww2 fighter and the IL2 template. I've made one for IL2 and it works great- much easier not having to remember countless key combinations. I plan to do one for FSX, which I have recently reinstalled! http://www.rogerdodger.net/ He's a helpful chap and...

Playing Firepower Online

Hello!
After being away for over a year I'm back home and have just reinstalled cfs3/firepower and was wondering if people are playing it online, or if there are any new flight sims being produced, especially a heavy bomber sim.
cheers!

When you hit the Z-key to get your FPS amongst other things, that also eats up the frame rates.
