777 Compressor Stall

Interesting video by a 777 pilot who explains what happened on Philippine 113 and how the crews have to prepare for this sort of thing. He also explains why the tires didn't blow on landing.

Re: Should A2A release official trainers even if not "complete" by our standard?

I vote YES. Then I would have the option to purchase or not. If people are holding out for Accusim fine, but you need the money. It's a business decision.

Re: Reinstall FSX by using DeLuxe edition

I've been having the same problem for about 5 months. Microsoft won't let me activate, and they have stopped all support.

Re: Airport in 1948

That was Midway. The Terminal was just recently completed, but things didn't start to fill in around the airport until the early 50's.
