Just run the exe from a folder Rick, the only thing to look out for on long flights is that the tracker is switched off. There is a flynet.ini file somewhere after you run the client for the first time and you just need to change the line in it from tracker=1 to tracker=0. I'll find out where it lives on Vista when I get home and let you know. :)

Hi John, Just noticed they have release the new fsairlines beta. Just thinking it might be prudent to put my routing from Milan no NZ on the new system as a good way to beta test? What say you? I'm still working out the routing :lol:

Hi Guys

Scary flight

lost the port engine for 10 minutes on climbout from Hong Kong but eventally got it to relight. :worried: (de ices where on but fuel heaters seem to not work (the lamps don't anyway!).

loaded a full fuel load as i have 5 legs to cover and needed to re familiarise myself with the Budgie.

Mr B would be proud (my first VA touchdown in almost 2 years was 77 fpm :thumbsup:

RPVM to WABB tomorrow if i can but this time with no ACC time (wanted to see Monza Highlites as i was out earlier) :worried:

Well done Rick :dancer:

The new client at FSA doesn't indicate landings like the current one does even though it must take it into consideration for airframe life. Shame as I can see us all thinking we're doing greasers while the gear struts are poking through the top of the wings! :lol:
