Re: ILS Question

Mark,

Yes, I'm using FSX and that's exactly what was causing this. I checked 'Disable turbulence and thermal effects on aircraft' and the problem was solved.

Thanks!

ILS Question

Has anybody else noticed that different ILS approaches perform differently? For example the glide slope on the ILS19R at KSNA fluctuates a lot about half way down and my autopilot will never lock on. The ILS25L at KLAX works perfectly every time. The glide slope is smooth and my autopilot handles ...

Re: PE Software Hangs Up

Never mind. If I had looked a few posts down I would have seen the solution to my problem. My headset was not plugged in.

All OK now.

Re: PE Software Hangs Up

I de-installed PE, downloaded the program and reinstalled. Started fsx and kicked off PE. Received error "ERROR HAS OCCURRED CLICK OK TO ABORT SQUAWK BOX (11)"

then

"PILOT EDGE _FSX.EXE HAS STOPPED WORKING".

Ideas?

PE Software Hangs Up

Guys,

I went to connect this afternoon and the PE software would hang up and I would have to stop the process. I tried this three times with the same results. No error messages. The program would just stop responding. This has always worked great. Never had a problem before.

I think the first ...

Re: Changing Radio Frequencies

I found a good solution by using commands that are not in the documentation.

COM/NAV 1

C1 = select com1 freq before the decimal
CC1 = select com1 after the decimal

N1 = select Nav1 before the decimal
NN1 = select Nav 1 after the decimal

COM/NAV 2

Same as COM/NAV except swap "1" s for "2"s.

X ...

Changing Radio Frequencies

Guys,

Is there an easier way to change COM and NAV frequencies in FSX? I'm having a hard time making changes fast enough. I'd like to be able to program codes in my x52Pro but can't find anything in the FSX documentation.

Thanks!

Re: I Need a New Plane

Guys,

I bought the CT210M Centurion II HD from Flight1. This thing is awesome. I flew one years ago and loved it.

Thanks!!

I Need a New Plane

Guys,

I just joined PE last week and love it. I have finished the first two VFR tests and wasn't prepared for how nervous I was. The controllers were a big help.

I have a Commercial/Instrument but haven't flown in about 30 years. I decided to get current again and saw something about PE on the web ...
