Thanks, Brent - I usually use an application launcher, so I hadn't see the 32-bit version. That works!

Here's my naive question: is this issue why, after updating my XP installation on the Mac the other day, XP tells me I have no plugins installed? I tried reinstalling PE this afternoon, with no luck, and then I found this thread! If this is why the new XP installation doesn't see the PE plugin, I'll...

I knew I was doing something wrong - this one's relatively easy to fix!

Thanks for the suggestions - since I hadn't flown on PE for awhile, I was updating my software last night and wanted to try it out before getting on the network, so I tried this flight just in the sim, not on the network. The problem I ran into was that by the time the RWY 25 localizer came in to th...

When I looked up the TEC route for KCNO to KHHR, I found PDZ PDZ270R HHR RY25 LOC on MyFlightRoute. I'm flying a C172/U with two NAV radios. My question is this: how does the PDZ 270 radial get me to Hawthorne? POWUP is an initial approach fix for the LOC RWY 25 approach, but the 270 radial off of P...

I can vouch for the La Veta pass south of Pueblo - maybe marginally longer than what you have, but several pilots around here (Albuquerque) use it regularly on the way to the Denver area, and I've had good luck with it, too. The La Veta Pass AWOS was inop when I went, but it was a nonissue. Expect a...

Relating to the original post and freedom to pick an altitude, when I have been assigned an altitude restriction and the controller is ready to free me up again, I've heard "resume appropriate VFR altitudes" sometimes, "altitude pilot's discretion" sometimes, and "delete alt...

For me, generally a single engine <FL180 pilot, the I-9 was more of an exercise in handling a completely unfamiliar airplane than it was a logical extension of the IFR challenges of the earlier ratings. Even so, I found it good to be reminded that there are always new ways to experience the same thi...

I landed and didn't fly the missed approach, but I was planning what you suggested if I needed to go missed. I had considered asking the approach controller about it before starting the approach, but I decided to post my question on the forum instead. (If I were planning the approach RW, I think I w...

I flew the KSAN RNAV RWY 27 approach in PE last night, and I was a little confused by the missed approach instructions: climbing left turn to 2500 direct SARGS and hold. The odd thing is, SARGS is pretty much in a direct line with the final approach course. Adding to the mystery: the hold at SARGS i...
