  1. Hello All If you go to the Fsreal weather site and REGISTER with that site , you will then be able to download FSfealweather Pro version (FREEWARE) This version is a more polished version of the basic free FsWeather app. Please note that this Pro version is no longer supported but is good alternative to the basic app. Also note this is NOT the twenty tries and then you have pay version but a genuine if no longer supported FREEWARE version . I have used it for a long time now. Cheers Andy
  2. Hello Again I am afraid I am somewhat baffled as to what you are asking for. I didn't realise you already had the the Pro version which is a freeware item. As to paying extra for more features that is a new one on me as Fsrealwx Pro is not supported anymore. If you want extra features you will have to purchase Fsrealwx 3.0 In summary Fsrealwx Pro is Freeware and no longer supported. Fsrealwx weather 3.0 is payware and current, and may ? Have the extra features that you require. Hope you get it sorted,but I can't really add anymore to this than I have done so Cheers to you. Andy
  3. Hello again The Pro version is definitely free. I have used it for many years. What would be the point in paying for version 3.0 (The latest and payware product) just to get the key for an older version the Pro version? As I said before to get the Pro version you have to create an account with the site.(the usual email and password required) Do this and the Pro version becomes available free in the archive section of the website.. Almost feels like something fishy going on asking you to pay.Why would you pay for the latest version 3.0 just to get the key for an older version Pro? PS version 3.0 is the latest and payware version. If you wish to try that then it offers 30 free sessions after which you have to pay or the program or it becomes inoperable. Having said that the Pro version is definitely free.As I said just create an account at the website. I checked the website this morning and it's still functioning and is the same as it's always been I suggest you visit the site and take it from there Cheers Andy
  4. Hello Hello JSMR I have checked the the site and Pro and lite versions are still available (Free )but no longer supported. But as I said before you MUST create an account before the Pro version becomes available for download. The Lite version is available and no need to create an account for that . You will find them in the ARCHIVE section. Cheers Again Andy
  5. Hello JSMR Both the light version and the Pro version are definitely free. The Pro version is no longer supported though. I have been using it for years. If you visit the site and provided you create an account it becomes available for download in the (archive section I think but will check again myself) I will take a look and report back to you. I have used it for many years and paid not a penny. Cheers Andy
  6. Hello JGF I don't know why you're unable to download fsrealwx lite. That should be available at the website itself. It's quite awhile since I have visited the Fsrealwx website , but to obtain the Fsrealwx pro version I had to register with the site (setup an account) Once you have done that then Fsrealwx Pro should then become available for download. It is Freeware. I have used it for a long time now. Cheers Andrew Hello again Have just checked, the site is still up and running and you DO have to create an account ,after which pro version becomes available in the archive section.
  7. Hello All As an update to my original queation I have tried a couple of things.........1. I have started my sim session by selecting the default flight first. I have shut down the cessna (As you know in the default the cessna is up and running, avionics on etc etc ) having done that i then select the aircraft i actually want and move it to the departure airport of my choice....... 2..I have found a custom choice in FSUIPC that gives you unlimited battery power, and thought i would try that as well. I set up a flight using a posky 737 (Turkish airlines in this case) equiped with the PSPanels Panel. I am happy to say that on this ocassion no loss of battery , avionics or auto pilot occurred. I am not sure whether i have solved the original problem (as posted in this thread) , but I hope so. PS I got the idea of selecting the default flight first from another simmer who experianced the same problem as me (loss of avionics , autopilot etc mid flight )and seemed to fix it BY selecting the default flight first. PPS I have flown the POSKY 737 plus PSPanels panel for many years now and do know that an aircrafts generators have to be turned on or battery power runs out after ten to fifteen minutes or so.. Yes Zip (hello by the way)thats just what it sounds like. There is definitely an audible click of someting switching off. Cheers Andy
  8. Hello All Long time since posting. I have a very annoying problem. When I take a flight in any of (and there are many)my Posky 737s equipped with the very nice PsPanels panel at a point in the flight I here a little click and at that moment I loose all electrical systems and autopilot stops functioning. Nothing I do will restart my AP.This is intensely irritating as the a PsPanel does not always take kindly to reloading of the aircraft in flight. I had this same issue some years ago, but can't remember how I resolved it. Anyway if there are any suggestions I would very much appreciate it. Seems strange having to post an Fs9 issue these days as it usually rock solid and is joy to fly . Cheers to all Andy
  9. Hello Nels I suspect the sluggish navigation (scrolling etc) is more a case of my VERY Cheap tablet. No real worries though. Cheers Andy

    Hello All By the way I'm the OP of this thread.:) I have to say that I have had no problems with Fs9 and Windows Ten. In fact as the years have gone by 9 had got better and better. It now does what I've always wanted a sim to, more than anything else I wanted Fs9 (or any sim)to run smoothly. Nothing could (for me anyway )brake the spell a good flight more than juddering and stuttering whilst banking left or right. In fact I used to look away from my monitor until the aircraft resumed level flight. Maybe I am easily pleased, but I still love Fs9 and when taking of last night into a beautiful pink hued morning I still think it's a great mixture of technical expertise to fly and particularly land well,It's also for me a of work of art to. Finally I am not someone who has any sort of downer on FS2020 as long as we have Sims of all sorts being developed we still have a great hobby to participate in. PS Dark humour If I ever got round to Fs2020 and it took as long to master and run like old Fs9 I suspect by that time I will be heading or actually in the great departure lounge in the sky flying Harp airlines on board a beautiful summer cumulus drifting away through eternity . Thanks guys for your views on W10 11 etc I guess at the end of the day it will be down to me whether I try it or not (that is the question) Anyway I have a new joystick to try tonight and looking forward to that. All the best Andy
  11. Hello All I like the look of the new site.......but I am finding it very slow and sluggish to navigate through. It may be my cheap and cheerful tablet(although I had no problems with the old site) Hopefully things will improve with time as possible glitches etc become sorted out. Good luck to you Nels. And thanks for your time ànd efforts with Flightsim.com Cheers Andy
  12. Thanks CRJ for replying to my post. The tablet I have at the moment is of the cheap and cheerful variety. ( ALBA) what it has that other tablets (In my price range) don't seem too is the ability to connect to my monitor is via its mini HDMI to standard size HDMI connector . I want in any new tablet that I may buy is this ability to connect via a cable. I am not sure about things like mirror cast etc (my internet is not bad but I think I may get lag problems etc using it) I do believe that some tablets use mini usb c for charging purposes and also that same connector for displaying to a monitor (films documentaries etc ) but just to confuse things some tablets have mini usb c that DOESNT have this function only the charging facility. You may be wondering why if I have a tablet that performs all these functions then why do i need a new one? well its time. My tablet is getting on, takes a goodly time to start and needs charging constantly (In fact I keep it connected permanently to its charger these days) The tablet has two flightsim functions. One is that it contains many flight sim guides to different flightsim aircraft by Werner Schott which I still dip into from time to time and the other is its ability to connect via its mini to standard HDMI connector to a spare monitor so I can watch a BBC I Player documentary previously downloaded and ready for the cruise phase of my flight . The Lenovo that I mentioned in my original post in is in my price range has decent reviews (pinch of salt required I know :) but I simply cant find any review that mentions its connectivity options. That is it and thanks for you reply to my query. Cheers Andy
  13. Hello All I use my ALBA 10inch tablet to check on the flight characteristics of various aircraft that I fly. I also use it to watch downloaded TV documentaries were I cast it to an external monitor. This I do during the cruise phase of the flight. My question is this I am thinking getting a newer tablet, but it must also be able to cast (preferably via cable)to the same monitor. The tablet is the Lenovo m10 plus 10inch model. Does anyone here use this particular tablet and can it be connected to an external monitor? I have tried various sights including Argos(UK retailer)for information but can't get a clear answer. There are masses of questions concerning all the tablets Argos supplies, but nobody seems ask about there connectivity to TV or monitors. My current tablet although very cheap (in fact may now be discontinued)is about the only one that has a mini HDMI connector ,so no problem coupling it to my 24inch monitor. I don't want to fork out good money on this newer Lenovo model only to find it can't connect to my 24inch monitor or TV. Probably not your usual Flightsim question. But a tablet does play an important role in my flightsimming. Thanks a lot and merry Yule to all. Andy
  14. I may be four years late. But thanks for your help guys with this particular issue . As for today fs9 runs beautifully, smoothly and reliably. Andy
