Do you use a free app or is it a program you buy? Hubby found it interesting.

Hey Milo, it looks good but it was only a straight line so how do you go turning corners, going around round abouts, stopping at school crossings and stop lights mate? I also hope there was not too many pot holes in the road.
Oh! It looks like you scraped your tail along the ground while taking off as well?
Dazren wanted to say all that but he asked me to as I know you.

He may listen to you as you have ''tricked'' him into thinking your his friend,

Hi CC, I have had a look at Xplane, that I havent gotten yet
Pam the game is called Microsoft flight simulator x , nowadays comes as a gold edition which is the deluxe version and an acceleration pack which adds more planes etc you need a beefy computer like an i7 (usually quad cores nowadays) to run it
and yes I did scratch the paint on that take off and who needs roads when you got the great open air !!
and the jets also have the fasten seat belts and no smoking sign switches, which are activated most of the time!!
so far I have put in about 60hrs into the game, most on cesna's mainly the cesna 172 learning the bombardier Lear jet 45 as in the pics and Boeing 737-800
there are addons that you can buy too that add to the game environment,
http://www.fspassengers.com/ this one (you pay for ) it gives you the addition of passengers in the plane which apparently you can hear , also this one http://www.fsdreamteam.com/products_gsx.html which gives you better ground activities while at airports etc, better than the ones in the game..
i havent gotten them yet so not sure what there like
best to fly this with a decent joystick or if your keen you can buy the yokes for this too
oh if you really want to get into it , you can have a home set up like this guy has done

Milo, I've been FS simming for the past 10 years, its great fun, recently purchased a new Thrustmaster control system.
I wish, see the monitor hanging over the desk? I keep saying to Mrs W that I need a new (bigger) computer room, I could easy clean out a spare bedroom to use for FSing but she says no, can you have a word with her please.
milo said
09:46 PM Dec 6, 2012
mrs wombat, please give mr w a room for his computer stuff. (i tried)
Wombat that scenery stuff is amazing ,from that first link you could spend a small fortune on this game oh do you have any game crashing ? ie fatal error, etc?
_wombat_ said
10:15 PM Dec 6, 2012
Thanks for trying milo, I'll let you know if it works.
No game crashing, usually means you need more ram, how much ram are you running?
My desktop system was built for FSX only, nothing else running on it (except Win 7)
milo said
12:31 AM Dec 7, 2012
i have a quad core i7 acer desktop pc 8 gig ram , 2 1tb hds 1gig dedicated graphics card
with win 7, apparantly other people ive read on the net have had this issue ..
how often do you fly? I fly every day, trying to build up practice , when I get some money Ill get that add on scenery of aus... oh have you ever flown with any one or used the air control stuff?
_wombat_ said
05:03 AM Dec 7, 2012
you should not have any CTD problems with that system, I have never had any CTD problems but I have heard of some guys who have had.
Only fly alone never have done the fly online thing and the ATC stuff is not the best in FSX, however I do have the ATC tell me where to go and sometimes have to wait awhile for taxi/takeoff clearance.
The Aussie scenery is really worth the cost, also the recent England scenery.
I will try to put up a pic for you of Perth A/P approach tomorrow, so you can see what it looks like with the aussie scenery.

Hey wombat, I've been trying out the beech craft king air 350, I think that's what it's called? Great little plane!
I'm llooking for something like that , but cross between a small jet and combination of passengers and or cargo But not only for flying around aus but globally with an easy ****pit layout like the king air. Any ideas mate???
I do like the one in my sig the bombardier Lear jet45
But find I have a lot of trouble with overspeed and some times
The nose pitches up n down on its own and I can't figure out how to stop it
With that plane, could that be flown globally ?!
I don't like the big jets, too complicited...

have a look here, you will have to join the site @ www.flightsim.com and the aircraft are free, they have 173 KingAir 350.
All a/c in FSX can be flown globally, the lear is hard to fly because of its speed, try getting more experience with the cessna's.
I'm just going to sort out the pics I promised you a couple of days ago, and will post them here soon.
_wombat_ said
05:50 PM Dec 8, 2012
It's good that we are in I Digress... or somebody will whinge and have the topic moved
Here are the pics as promised, maybe better to email me for more info if you need any, you have my email address
thanks for the pics wombat, yeah thats why i started the post in here, so we wont have a problem.. I like the little wombat on your plane!!
I eventually , when I work out what plane i like the most and use regularly would like to have Milo Airlines, on it, some how... is that scenery from that pack your talking about??
also i am on the flightsim.com site ..they too have been good helping me out.. are you on there too??
and when i do find a plane i like to download where do i put them ie what part of the game folder ??
thanks again mate..

omg well that's a surprise...never know all folks interests...certainly wide ranging, and here I was thinking wombats only dug holes for their hobby.
What does Mrs Wombat do ? while you are flying.
Good for you Milo, certainly keeps you out of trouble too.
boats in a flight sim?? who would have thought, thanks for the pics and links mate..

Ahhhh, brings back memories.
I did a course and got my Restricted License flying Cessna 152s out of Jandakot WA. I went on and got a Aerobatics endorsement where-bouts I could do Spins, Hammerheads, Loops etc to keep me interested while I clocked up hours.
I never found the need, or time to go on for Unrestricted.
Pic 17 looks like some serious undercarriage mods have been made Wombie.
I might have to have a another look at Flight Sim although I don't have a joystick.

struth i hate flying over water, you look like your not going any where
G'day all ,
I know I've had pics up of my star ship from star trek game,
but also have a love of airplanes for the real ones..
any ways you may have gathered thru my avatar pic and sig lately I have
been learning to fly via microsoft flightsim , its a great game/simulator but with a
heavy learning curve.. but good fun when things go right!!
so here's some screen pics from my inageral flight from Hobart to Perth..
I think its always good to keep the mind active, hope you dont mind the pics
Thanks Milo, thats looks like a great challenge, when i have more time i may ask you how to get started with it,
