Hi All, I have on my machine at home a list in Excel of all the FSX airports with Lat / Lon. I've used that to build a quick (great circle) calculator, nothing clever about it, just put in a pair of ICAO codes and it'll tell you the great circle distance between them, works great. I'd like to expand...

Yah...I realise that mate...but it's never going to be A1 in acceleration. :lol: A2 would be great, well, even 6/10 'Could try harder' would be ok :rofl: My opinion is that the 'porpoising' is due to changes in atmospheric pressure over time which is exaggerated by the time acceleration. As you tra...

Thanks, wondered if it was just 'one of those things' Didn't get it before installing FSX Acceleration so might revert to standard fsx.

Realism...... Hmm, unfortunately the realisms of real life prevent me from spending 14 1/2 hrs in front of the pc lol

Hi Rich...Yes I took the picture and yes I drove al...

Thanks, I'll check that out too

Well I ended up heading up to Santiago & then the Galapagos (for the most remote airport 'reward') & then west from there.

I'll probably end up using a DC-10 for some UK - Middle East - Africa flights instead now.

Thanks for the info! Will check those out

I was flicking through the channels earlier & thought 'WTF! That's Mike Collet' (my first ever job was for Air Atlantique) so I started watching........ Supposedly they're doing something which has never been done before, which is odd as in the late 80's I remember freezing my knackers off at Sa...
