Re: Flight controls

The little circuit boards are seen by the computer and FSX/FSUIPC as joystick buttons. You can get circuit boards that work with momentary switches/push buttons or others that send a "pulse" signal and allows you to use toggle switches. They even have one that does half and half. My first 737 "hybri...

Re: Airport Codes

UT52 is indeed the downtown hospital heliport but the old KSGU lies within range of it in ADE which is why my flight tripped the wrong airport landing at the old KSGU. UT52 is much closer to the lat/long of the old KSGU than the new KSGU lat/long. FSA is all about lat/long and when someone entered a...

Re: Airport Codes

For some Alaska new airports that we have created with Airport Design Editor (that don't exist in FSX), we have taken the 3 letter code and used it if the old one had a 4 letter code in FSX. Conversely if the old airport had the 4 letter code, our new one created would have the 3 letter code, thus ...

Re: Airport Codes

I think it's a good idea Joe! :) A lot of pilots have a similar problem when they update their payware plane's Navigraph data .... the FSX airport data never updates so they are flying current up to date charts/databases into 12 year old airports. Now this may work to practice a particular approach ...

Re: Server and Airport Upgrade

Cannot book flight. Says "There is a problem with the database, contact an admin". Another pilot in my airline tried to book a flight and is getting the same message. I sent in a support ticket as well.

Re: Some thoughts on Penalties.

I am sure many of you have noticed we do have a 'divert' button on the client already, press it land anywhere you want, and end the flight without penalty, and without income. Then start a new flight from the diverted airport to the final destination and the revenue is recognised. I did it myself j...

Re: Some thoughts on Penalties.

I have been a part of FSA since 2011, owning my own airline since 2012 and I can tell you first hand, pilots enjoy the challenge of being graded. Our airline tracks every flight of every airplane with the financial data and landing rates and who flew each flight so right in front of everyone, we hav...

Bad Flight Upload = Invisible pilot

I am owner/CEO of my airline and my last flight has uploaded but in OVERVIEW there is no destination and I am no longer listed in the pilot roster. I cannot book a flight as FSAirlines does not seem to know my whereabouts (KMBS). If I click on the flight data tab, all the details are listed in the f...

Re: FSAirlines gets Hacked !!!!

DO NOT believe the client when it says to download new version!!!!!

This could be hacker's way to insert virus into your system.

Update Belongings List

Just a suggestion .... We need more crap to buy! HA HA! Things like ski boat, bass fishing boat, pickup truck, Jeep or Land Rover, ATV's, RV's, etc. Not all of us want the high end mansions or big boats and many of us "high time" pilots prefer to relax in the country or at the lake. Most FSA pilots ...
