Re: A2A Simulations vs P3D

Hello and welcome to the site! I want to make sure you understand that A2A is not a stand alone simulator. They only provide add-on aircraft for use in FSX and/or P3D. You will still need one of those simulators in order to use A2A's aircraft. A2A does not offer any aircraft for use in X-Plane. That...

Re: Anyone using a PFC Q6 in TT/PP/MM configuration?

I have had the PFC throttle quad for 2 years now and have a few hundred hours of use on it. My experience is opposite of Alan's. I have had zero issues with the pots spiking or the build quality in general. I went with the PFC unit after getting frustrated with the quality of the Saitek throttles. A...

Great alternative to the GTNs especia...

Re: Plane grazes tourist's hand - St. Barts

If the pilot was landing legally at St. Barts, it means it wasn't his first time there. You need a special permit to land there. To become qualified you need to, basically, take a check ride with an instructor. Kinda like being checked out on a type of aircraft you aren't familiar with! Takes a few ...

Re: Rear canopy opening

I am also experiencing the front cockpit opening when using the rear canopy click spot. Shift E+2 does open the rear canopy. And to add a bit more detail to the issue, when using the rear canopy click spot, the front canopy either opens fully, or closes fully. There is no intermediate stop when open...

Re: Accu-Sim Update 06_28_15 DOWNLOAD

You can install both the 650 and 750 (if you purchased both of them from F1) in the 182. I think you can also install two 650s in the 182 panel. Not sure about dual 750s as I'm not near my sim computer ATM. Not sure about the 172, but I think you can also install dual GTNs in it's panel as well. I'm...

I believe that option is already there for the 172 and 182. Not sure about the Cherokee.

Re: NAV 1 and 2 shows 111.11

Sounds like FSE.

If you fly an aircraft that is not "IFR" equipped, FSE will disable the NAV radios in exactly that fashion.

Solution is to delete the "Comanche250Log.dat.f" file in the A2A folder located in "My Documents".

Re: Repaint C-FBPU from the request thread.

I've suspended work on this, I didn't realize someone else had already started it. No worries Space! :) It's pretty tough to not have a few duplicates here and there. And each painter has their own interpretation on a paint scheme. And the blue version of C-FBPU is rather fictional after all! Jack
