Out of Memory (OOM) Errors

Posted on February 18, 2014 by admin

Part One While I’ve had my share of CTD’s (Crash to Desktop) in FSX over the years, I only recently began experiencing the dreaded Out of Memory (OOM) errors which plaque many.    As a result, until I started experiencing the OOM’s I really didn’t know much about them, nor what truly caused these to happen. …

The Rock of Gibraltar

Posted on December 28, 2012 by admin

I’m increasing my collection of add-on scenery for the European region and just recently purchased the Aerosoft version of Gibraltar LXGB for FSX.  This is a fantastic little airport and reminds me of my St. Maarten TNCM package I have from FlyTampa.  I currently own scenery from Aerosoft, FlyTampa, FSDT, Orbx, and UK2000 and truly…

Merry Christmas Flight

Posted on December 24, 2012 by admin

As previously mentioned in my blog, I’ve really been having a lot of fun flying for British Airways virtual.  I’ve accumulated many hours since joining just about a month ago and my travels have taken me to many European destinations.  Since reaching Senior First Officer, I’ve been really having fun in the Level D 767. …

Your First Flight

Posted on December 20, 2012 by admin

A few weeks ago I shared with you all the choices you have available in the form of flight simulation software.  I take it you’ve settled on one and have successfully installed the software onto your computer.  Unfortunately, most of what I will blog about will directly relate to Microsoft Flight Simulator.  As I have…

Another VA

Posted on December 13, 2012 by admin

I’ve blogged about my experience with VA’s or Virtual Airlines.  When I setup my sim gear and eased back into the hobby I really had plans just to fly and not get involved with any VA.  Well, this lasted about two weeks.  I recently joined British Airways Virtual (BAv).  I’ve known about BAv for over…

Which Flight Simulator Software is right for me?

Posted on December 6, 2012 by admin

Back in the early days, we didn’t have much choice when it came to selecting flight simulator software.  When I was a teen back in the early 80’s, I had a Commodore 64 computer.  I had a version of flight simulator which ran on the Commodore 64 computer.  In those days you only had a…

British Airways to Rome

Posted on December 2, 2012 by admin

After returning back to London from Cape Town, South Africa, (see my around the world adventure posts) I wanted to spend some time flying in and around Europe in some “Big Iron”.  While I’ve flown to and from Europe in jets (mainly from the US), I haven’t done much route flying within the UK/Europe.  I…

Flight Simulation–Why?

Posted on November 29, 2012 by admin

To some individuals, a computer based flight simulator is just a game and to many others it is much more, it’s an important hobby.  I’ve even known many younger individuals who were inspired to pursue aviation careers and became pilots and air traffic controllers as a result.  Regardless of your motive, one can learn and…

An issue solved

Posted on November 26, 2012 by admin

As I mentioned in an earlier blog post, I packed away my flight sim computer and other gear (yoke, pedals, GoFlight hardware modules) in early January 2012.  Prior to this timeframe, I hadn’t spent much time flying since July/August 2011.  However, at this time (and even in January 2012) my FSX machine ran just fine. …

“How To” Page – Introduction

Posted on November 26, 2011 by admin

I’ve been flying computer flight simulators since the early to mid 1980’s.  During this over 25 year period of time I’ve learned a lot and I would like to share what I’ve learned with my readers. If you’ve been flying for a while, then perhaps nothing I’ll tell you will be new information.  However, I…
