Its Not a Classic /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> ... The Chinese have a very weird registration , most all 737s are hard to define , the 700 s are in a sense a 800 , internal are different , Hells if it was a 707 i would have no hesitation to jump on board if that,s your fear . /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif />

All talk this about 'FLIGHT' ... I think FSX is to be a little like the Falcon4 program , you look at what it has to offer .. i would be hard to get it better and when it dose ... it wont be FLIGHT .. least yet in its current state.

Ian, My first few flights exploring have been in Carenados excellent Cessna 185. The one with skis, in Mt Cook Skiplane colours, how cool is that. My aircraft of choice is going to be the tiger or Technam for local sightseeing, the C185 for mountain work, and the carenado baron for longer hauls. Oh yeah, not to forget the C185 amphibian for lake and river stuff. I am a present exploring the coast around Kaikoura, looks fantastic, and even the airport has been given a work over. With people wandering around, having a barbie and a NZ flag flying, sheeesh, I thing I'm gettin homesick Cheers...

Frankly .. i only look at an aircraft from a distance if only to check out the scenery and if you want those distance shots the sim has many other camera and view options .

I don't touch the REX options or use the interface at all , changed the cloud textures and the general types of weathers and simply run real world 95 percent of the time .

Great little read Andrew , as you no it really dose help , with getting sorted with layout and orientation , course the little task of learning navigation at a lessor cost , still don't beat the real thing but a good intro .

Couple of points..... That Asus temperature display is both simple and neat, easy enough for even me to understand. I saw that the core voltage is at 1.44 V. Is this standard for the 3930K or have you increased the voltage? I have the i5 2500K overclocked, but at 1.345V. smooth landings.

The charts have been scanned in JPG format so I can crop the edges and then can also reduce file size. Current file size is 32Mb. Page size scanned is a cross between A4 and A3. File for Chart 10 Auckland is done. So any one interested please PM me your email and I will send out. Please state full or reduced size. Cheers, Adrian.
