Funny thing, been pricing out new "high powered" computers and since getting FSX up and running again, all seems to be back to normal. Lost many saved flight plans and find my ltd resurrected flight plans residing in the default aircraft folder? I have only added a few of the e/s/o the USA, I had many going up the west coast, California to Canada, but those will have to wait to see another me, if and when I replace this computer. For now, I am back in business, getting refreshed on all that I thought I had lost, took some time as age is starting to show! Thanks guys and I will try to help where I might be of assistance from time to time. Try to help Mr Zippy when I can, he is a very busy guy! Rick

Thanks Charlie Brown, you think I got problems, wait until you make the plunge with a new computer! Maybe, I'll be able to help you on yours?

Yes, I am getting ready to go thru the same thing. Computer manufacturers have all gotten away from the installed disc drives. I bought a laptop several years ago and i went to use what I thought should have a disc drive, NOT, got to buy an external drive and connect it to your new computer via the USB cable. I am getting ready to purchase a new higher speed computer and I will use that same external disk drive in making that conversion. Hope it helps and all goes well. Just reading some of the newer posts, as I have been away from here for awhile, on Windows 11 not being so great. Most negative comments were meant for Steam edition, and I still have the Gold edition of Flight Simulator X and I am hoping and praying all goes well, as I have a ton of add-on aircraft that still needs to have the dust blown off them! Let me keep reading on! Rick

Aharon - Very nice, Joe's got him a beautiful aircraft to move around in! Thanks for sharing! Rick

Very nice screenshot, Aharon, of another classic and you present them oh so well. Thanks for sharing! Rick

Thanks Bill! I don't know why I have overlooked this one for so long? Just happened upon it this afternoon! Rick

Thanks Phrog! Rick (so much for trying this on my cellphone!)

Very nice, Aharon, thanks for sharing!! Rick

This info was on the old downloads, complete and repaints! Anyway that we can get this info back? When I search for an aircraft, I would rather download 3 - 33mb aircraft than 1 aircraft of 100mb! Rick (Downwind66)

Have no idea where that came from?

Not mi e and I remember only thanks to you Phrog!

Thanks Phrog 877-530-7387

That was a good tv series though, McHale's Navy!! Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway!

I thought the Navy had the rank of Ensign? I never saw one in my time in the Army! Rick

And Charlie, I mispelled consummes, should have been consumes! I missed it, so sorry! I guess the new system doesn't have a spell check either? Rick

The opening of a note or letter is called the greeting or Salutation The opposite or closing of a note or letter is called a closing. Some refer to it as a Complimentary Closing! Sorry Nels and Charlie, I was not politically correct on this one, but, maybe with the above you will know what I was referring to! How and where to place the CLOSING! after the aircraft pic consummes the entire area of the post..................... Rick (Closing with a complimentary Emoji) )

Wow, I had that one coming! Forget trying to navigate on your tablets, nooooooooooooooo, I'm not going to say it, Charlie would just "Slam Dunk" me again! Rick (and I am not logging off Nels!)

GoodOMG, Charlie, I should have known you'd be there for one that good! Rick

I'm not looking to logout, just want to say bye bye with a closing: RICK

I'm trying very hard to make this new flightsim work for me, but, where and how do I sign off, such as.................. Rick

Very nice Aharon! I like that older livery, on bare metal too! Thanks for sharing! Rick

Day started out well, but definitely took a dump at the end of the day! Oh well, get a strong one at the O Club! Rick
