  1. 20 minutes with a slow connection? I have a somewhat fast connection. Yes it took around 20 minutes to download. But I'm a bit over 3 hours and still decompressing with a bit more than 2 GiB still to go. BTW, I'm on Steam so maybe that's the reason. It just seems a bit ridiculous that it's taking so long. Must be rewriting the entire game.
  2. The shift Z mod sounds good. I remember it from P3D. I've downloaded it and unzipped it to my desktop. It's a folder named ambitiouspilots-shiftzstats. My question is where do I install it to and do I install the entire folder as is. ANd I should say, I'm using the Steam version so things are a bit different than if I had gone to the microsoft store for it.
  3. I found the same thing. r ctrl + and r ctrl - Nice of Microsoft to tell us this. Also, I didn't see any indication on screen as to what acceleration rate I was using. Kind of makes it awkward to try to return to normal rate as you can go to a rate of less than 1. Unless I've missed something. Anyone else see an indication of the acc rate?
  4. Dan - Thanks so much. I can't tell you how many dead ends I followed and how many hours spent looking for these files. Your directions were spot-on. Mike
  5. I'm running it through steam. Where do I find that folder? Thanks
  6. I'm just getting started with MSFS2020 and for the life of me I can't find any key bindings for time compression. Has anyone found it? Thanks+
  7. Ah, yes. Found it now. Thanks. These 71 year old eyes just don't do it anymore. No chance for a replacement body, I suppose.
  8. I'm using XP11 with 124thATC64 as my ATC. I was approaching KISP in very low visibility, just slightly above minimums in the default 737-800. My flight plan was for an IFR flight KDCA to KISP. Yet when I was nearing KISP, I was told to expect runway 28 which is one of the shorter runways and has no ILS. I know I can request a specific runway for takeoff when I'm getting my clearance. But how do I tell ATC that I'd prefer runway 06 which is the ILS runway? I had such trouble seeing the runway that I had to do a go around and divert.
  9. Other than the PMDG, has anyone found a 737-700 or 737-800 for P3D4. Freeware would be nice. I need this for my VA, Southwest Virtual. Thanks
