I'm running a 32" curved Samsung and like it. Bear in mind that wall mounting isn't as straight-forward with Samsung as it should be due to the desk mount bracket not officially being removable. I had to bring the wall mount out on standoffs. As far as curved vs flat; really not sure I'd notice in most situations; wouldn't probably need to go fly a same size flat to see, but when I changed to the curved I went up from 23" at the same time. Would I buy again? Probably, in all honesty, if I could get it on 'special' (which I did, from PB Tech).

Looks like the hydraulic system is turned off so the gear and the flaps shouldn't go down :P Yeabut the red/green lights and sound effects work just fine! :nahnah:

One thing I've noticed flying in Gita last night -- Prepar3d v4.2 is a real improvement over any previous version when it comes to heavy-weather performance.

Showoff :) you do know there is a perfectly serviceable airfield, just over the road at the turnoff?? This is more fun. I have also landed a Drouine Turbulent on the service road behind the Chateau :rolleyes:

Most of you have hit on additional elements here also... - when you install these bits and pieces over time, you tend not to notice the cost, the hassle, the complexities, the tweaks, the sometimes many service packs, the time, etc. When you have do do everything from scratch, as I am now, you do notice. I do like the way ORBX have gone with FTX Central though ... nice and easy! (installing SI and NI as we speak) - some products are worse than others for rapid fire fixes and service packs, sometimes rapidly after release. Error and omissions we understand, but if you are on service pack 3...

I like the new site, but I hope they don't just "parrot" the press releases like they have with Skyforce ... I can go direct to the vendors for marketing speak ... I want the real opinions and early news announcements

Hey AV1 - yep I'm a member, please ping me via IM and we can sort you out. Pilots are able to use aircraft from any recent MSFS release, including P3D - be interested to know why you thought it was FSX only?

Ooh. Nice. I just upgraded to a GTX1080 as I put my simrig back together. My Track Clip was ok when it went into a box (over a year ago now I think!) and was in two pieces when it came out but with wires still seemingly attached. I clipped it back together, but currently have no idea if it still works. If it doesn't, then I'll seriously look at this as replacement (though with a 1080, I am also now keeping a half-eye on VR too...) Cheers

Turns out, even when you have a completely "dumb" phone on a landline, odds are it is powered. So no reason not to go VOIP really. My concern was whether you could inherit the old mobile and landline numbers to the new handset. I've had the same phone numbers for 20+ years and although I'd love to be shot of Vodafone, I don't want to lose my numbers. As I recall the conversation, you could assign various ringtones to signify say, a home call or office call.

Hi Barrington, many thanks for the interest, but I want to sell it as a package, so no, I don't want to separate and sell one by one. Cheers Phil

Just a update thank you to Marty now my flight Sim is running YAY :cheers: . Went into P3D and selected the Beechcraft. But happened to find when moving the levers the sticks in the aircraft by them selves move slightly backwards and forwards making adjustments on its own accord. But the Quadrant works perfect. So went to Logitech to down load the latest drivers thinking it could be a possible cause. But as attached its looking for a Usb wire. Well everything is certainly plugged in and the quadrants don't have USB plugs. Any ideas ?
