Re: FBO 11CL (Hansen) looking for a new owner

9 months later and no replies. If someone doesn't step up soon this FBO will go on sale to the FSE users at large. I guess there's not much interest in FSE these days. It's a shame.

FBO 11CL (Hansen) looking for a new owner

Hello future FSE FBO land barons. I have been a long time fan of PilotEdge and FSE. Some time back another PE user gifted to me my first FBO. This a dirt strip in the PE coverage area Hansen (11CL). I'm looking to return the favor by gifting to a new owner who can give this more attention. https://s...

Re: ICAO weather; aviationweather.gov

Also try http://www.aviationweather.gov/metar

The METAR can be displayed in raw or decoded format. Great way to practice reading the raw METAR data strings.

Re: Saitek radio panel in XP11?

I have Xsaitekpanels working on XP10 and XP11. BUT I have notice some "strange" behavior when I switch back and forth between XP10 and XP11. When the sim is first loaded after a switch the panel lights may not work. The knobs will change frequency but the panel LED lights will be dark. Wha...

Re: New PC Build for X-Plane 11 exclusively

To OP. I'm going to assume that you are not interested. This PC is too good of a PC to be collecting dust. I'm planning to re-deploy as a Windows Home server this weekend. It's an over kill for the job but better than gathering dust. Thanks anyway.

Re: New PC Build for X-Plane 11 exclusively

Disagree. Visual models for other aircraft are getting a lot more detailed. The new HD CSLs have 1k, 2k, and in some case, 4k textures which add up very quickly. That, and the model geometry takes VRAM as well since it's stored on the card as well. I think this actually validates one of the points ...

Re: New PC Build for X-Plane 11 exclusively

At one point in time I wanted to create a dual X-plane set up with one PC handling external visuals and the other displaying only the dash. Started pulling parts together and built a Z97 system based upon an MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition mother board. It's a complete PC with case, i5 CPU, 8GB memory, 1...

Re: New PC Build for X-Plane 11 exclusively

Just wondering how old your current PC and graphics card is. What are the basic specs of the PC that you are considering? What kind of frame rates do you see now. What are you expectations regarding post upgrade frame rates? Are you opposed to partially building your own PC? For example a complete w...

Re: ATC will not respond

Just wondering. WHICH simulator are you using? X-Plane, FSX, P3D? As said before hard to give good help if we don't even know the basics about your set up.
