Classic British Flight Sim

Assume you are talking Armstrong Whitworth Argosy? This works for me:

Fuel Trim is accessed via the downward arrow icon. I have a note that it should be 50% to start, but I always start at 100% without issue, and (shame on me) leave it there for the whole flight.

Water Methanol On for take-off ...

False alarm - it should have said that they worked with the California Classic HQ AI model. It caught me out as the others are made for flyable models.

On the California Classics web site there are some lovely new repaints being produced of a range of aircraft from the 50s and 60s, most of which haven't been done before - e.g Indian Airlines and Iran Air. The filenames fit Rick Piper's 700 model, but the textures won't display in FS9. The author ...

What a lovely name that airfield has!

Here in the UK we only use the name "Crop Circle" for nefarious activities supposedly carried out by beings from other planets:

Ha ha - if I have to leave FS9, I shall leave the hobby.

I tried to be a good boy and upgraded myself to FSX during "lockdown" and was putting up with all the things I couldn't quite get to work as I wanted, but suddenly a Windows update came along that for whatever reason messed up my particular ...

I think from memory there was traffic toolbox which was part of the FS9 SDK. Or am I getting mixed up with FSX? :worried:

No you aren't getting mixed up - I have it installed in FS2004.

Best regards,
