Yeah, fun little route. Need to get the scenery files sorted out though, Steven was "parked" about 20' off the ground at Decatur from my perspective

I'm definitely in.

That's a bummer AJ, though it solidifies my decision to not bother with V.10 until it's more sorted out. I'm finally feeling SOMEwhat competent on PE and I'd be rather miffed if I couldn't fly for a while.

I'm often in this situation myself, curious to hear what the experts say.

The first tour sounds like it was fun, I would definitely like to do the next one. As far as availability, I work mostly from home right now so almost any time during the week is good, as are Sundays.

Same thing happened to me in my Carenado Mooney. I was on the downwind at Ontario waiting for landing clearance and suddenly I hear Keith informing me that ATC lost contact with me. On my end, I think it was due to spending too much time on the ramp with the battery and avionics on without the engin...

Just wanted to report that I tried the Griffin iMic that Steven mentioned earlier in the thread and it worked like a charm. Just $25 on Amazon and it solved all my audio issues. Thanks Steve! Hearing ATC on the headset and all other sounds on the external speakers is a nice bump in realism.

Oh, wow - well look at that, you're right!

I've been running custom scenery for so long and just automatically turned off roads, that I never gave them a fair chance. Just turned them on and viola, there's the 405 and 105 right by LAX as they should be.

I'll be getting ver10 either way, so I'll reserve judgement on the autogen until I've seen it first-hand. I just wish/hope there'll be a way to mimic the layout of freeways as they're such a major visual reference for VFR flying (in my admittedly limited RW flying experience). Sorry for the XPlane t...

Keith,

I've seen some screenshots of XP10's autogen and it does look very good. But high-res satellite imagery, especially with some correctly-placed 3D structures is hard to beat for immersive visuals, at least for someone who is familiar with the area.
