Nice photos. Thank you for posting. I may have to learn how to fly the A320.

New AFCAD was released today at Avsim for St. Louis Lambert International. Look for file named kstl_rs_fsx.zip by Ray Smith.

Interesting news Dave. It would be great to see one of the old ones return to life. I'm happy to see they're using the familiar Eastern livery vs. a new one.

Found a couple of interesting articles/photos about airlines that are no longer with us. Revisiting the Ghosts of Airlines Past Airlines that are now Extinct Don't remember flying Pan Am, but I remember flying Eastern, Branif, Northwest, TWA, Ozark, Continental, Midwest Express (oh those warm cookie...

Thanks Chris. I understand there's discount for previous Active Sky product owners. So far all the comments I've read are positive.

Richard,

On the issue with the overhead, can you press "A" and see a direct view of the overhead?

I just landed in Dallas, TX with not so good of a landing. :( Hard touch down and bounced once. After reviewing the approach, I've determined that though it was good weather, and I was established well in advance, I cut the throttle too soon, too fast. It is supposed to be done gradually. My FSFK fl...

Found this entertaining and instructive video. Though at the beginning it talks about much more than landing an airliner, the contents are only the portion covering landing and airliner.

Some SAX pilots strive to fly in a manner that is as close as possible to an good airliner pilot. For that, knowledge and practice are necessary. One source of knowledge is the flight critique from FSFK. Learning why points were taken and how to correct that is rewarding to the same group of pilots ...

Xavier, have you played with the optimization links above?

Tell me how it goes, if you decide to try again. Hard to beat the realism of the PMDG NGX and the LVD 767. It's not only the FMC, but the way the jet behaves, etc., that makes a difference to me. Hope it works for you.

I've also have used this product, but on the default aircraft, and for the same added realism reason. Shawn, for your computer gumming up problem, have you tried optimizing your FSX? Best way I've found so far is going to this free site . A different, more manual, approach is found here . Another, a...

FSFK has a new version 3.50 ready for download. Best upgrade method is to use the "Check for Update" item in the FSFK "Help" menu, and follow directions from there.

Jim, We have talked about adding new aircraft types when thinking about expanding the airline. Keeping with the realism thing, we would add an aircraft type, if it makes "realistic" sense. For example, we replaced the CRJ2 with the CRJ7 because we could say that the CRJ7 is more cost effec...

The Majestic model does look like a great plane to fly. Premier Aircraft Design has a freeware option.

Well done Matt. If you haven't noticed, we quietly introduced some new B747 fligths. Hope you have fun flying that huge beast across the oceans.

What is the use of these "globe" maps on the table that shows a flight report? In other words, what are they used for? The only answer I've been able to gather is show the actual recorded path of travel for that flight. At one time we thought that we could use them to "evaluate" ...

Congratulations Rich.

There's new freeware FSX scenery/AFCAD for RKSI in the avsim.com File Library. Search for file name: rksi_rs_fsx.zip by Ray Smith. SunAir has flight 44 from KSFO to KRSI.
