Classic British Flight Sim

Hi Dave,

So Sim time, yes that makes sense. Wondered if FSA logged the actual time, but that clears it up. Thanks Dave

Just to say that I found the "The Client" page on the FSA homepage by clicking the the "Flight Tracker" link in the Navigation sidebar, so perhaps step 9 in the ABC needs updating...

As a quick aside and an aid for an earlier point about checking groundspeed (for aeroplanes without a GS readout)...

I find that having the bog standard FS default GPS open whilst taxiing gives me my groundspeed and helps me get around airports/airfields without incurring the wrath of FSA. Of course it's turned off and kept off for all other aspects of the journey.

A good tip Gary.. tks

DK..
So I see! We eventually get our ABC up to date then FSA go and re-hash their homepage!

DaveB: Yes, I guess there'll always be that dragon to chase.

Further to Fodda's tip above -- thanks for that -- I've recently stumbled across what looks like an add-on (for FSX) called "RCBgh-50" that's supposed to add some groundhandling gauges to a cockpit. I can't recall where I downloaded it from and've yet to try it, but will do so anon. Is this add-on old news here? I also wonder whether FSA would accept it.

So much to learn...

Hi David

Fraser made a simple lamp gauge that will illuminate above a GS of 20kts to alert you of impending doom. You can grab it HERE

Thanks for that, Dave (and Fraser!). I've downloaded it and will give it a go anon.

In case anyone following this is interested, those "RCBgh" gauges I mentioned apparently include some pushback options. They need a little fiddling to install, so I haven't got round to trying them yet.

I can't find the client link anywhere on the FSairlines page(s)

Please help.

Hi Ady

It's not obvious is it and changing it's name didn't help! Click on the 'Information' tab and you'll see a 'Flight Tracker' tab on that page. This is the client

Got it thanks,

Now I just need to be assigned trainee status, I won't bore you with my RW qualifications for getting round that
