GPS, HSI, DME, NAV radio I believe. I'm a noob!

I should have just filed /A because I flew a tec route and I used VOR almost the whole way anyway.

If filing a flight plan in general aviation do I want /G? I have gps, transponder mode c, and I don't think RVSM. I'm mostly fling the Baron BE58.

I did request flight following. And I have been watching the workshop videos. It's a lot to take in though. But I'm having a ball. Only two flights so far on pe, but I watch YouTube and do research and learn more everyday. Thanks for your help

Sorry I'm a noob so I have to ask some noob questions sometimes. I tried to search and didn't find an answer, unless I missed it.

The other day I was flying on pe vfr. I would turn my autopilot on and off and fly around basically sight seeing on my way. I came to a rather tall mountain peak while ...

Sure, I understand. Please don't take my thread here as a complaint..............more of a place to listen to what you guys say so I know what to do next time. It's not like I can ask the controller on PE what I should be doing when he/she is so busy.

Yeah, I since read that post, thank you. It was just a little tough as a noob. That first flight is a short flight, the controller was so busy it probably took me 10 minutes before I could even get a word in. I'm not a noob to flight sim totally, but in the past I did not take it serious. Now that I ...

I tried doing the first flight from L52 to KSBP. I did get landed, but it was hard, tons of radio traffic. Is there a quieter place to fly? Also I hear the same planes and controller on 124.00 KBSP Tower and 121.6 KBSP Ground. I assume that is normal?

Thanks for all the help!

I did have the box checked to make my machine a slave because I was playing with my macbook the other night trying to see what I could do.

Thank you all!

Thanks for the quick help guys. I just sent the email. And I'll try the suggestion of moving x-plane. I did already try default aircraft and disabling a lot of the plugins though.

It would help if you included information about the set up and system.

For example:

Operating system and version (windows, Linux, Mac). Assuming Windows but which version (WinXP, Win7, Win8, or Win10)?
32 or 64 bit
Which distribution of X-plane (Box, download, or Steam)?
Which version of X ...
