  1. merci mon amigo but nothing u said works. I guess I'll just have to pan. vive la france mexique ausi.
  2. howdy folks how can I look right or left without having to pan thank you
  3. all of a sudden all traffic has desappeared....I have tried all kind of percentage in the traffic scenery window and still no traffic, I dont have any addons except only the meigs field, but that was months ago. for me, part of the fun is to stand around the landing and take off areas and watch the lil planes land and take off. as I said, I feel like Im living on a ghost town.....please help me. thanks in advance
  4. hmmm...one more of your typical answers which I wont even bother to thank or elaborate...read the message again and learn from zippi.
  5. yeah!..like ur smart advice is gonna help me now!!...read the message!!!!
  6. I AM a passenger!!..the stupid pilot had a stroke!!!!
  7. hey zippy great tip!..it was my last match!...Im flying a small plane that after clicking all over the place I found it has DME! So much for the good news, now back to my problem: the damn fog is thicker and thicker, needless to mention I dont see any runway lights, so now I know two things: ILS frequency and distance to the runway...hmmmm I also know Im running out of gas...tho I know the distance to the airport I dont know if is ahead, to the right or even behind me!!! do I circle around hoping I intersect the ILS signal?. or what?... I think Im going to die...what do I do????!!! if u dont hear fom me again, say a prayer for my soul
  8. I know Im in the neighborhood of the airport I want to come down to, I also know the frequency for instrument approach. but I dont know how far I am from the airport....mist is very heavy, I have to use a match to even see my hand... what do I do..help!!!! if u dont have a real help dont bother to answer....dont show off telling me how great u are and I have to learn,,,I need help now or Im dead. thanks in adavance
  9. As I said, great tip, but to work with it, I need to know how far out I am from the runway, which was the second part of my question thank you
  10. great tip, and also no pun intended very funny: I'm 79 years old and I never thot somebody would be kind enough of reminding me the table of 3. thank you
  11. great and very good answer, I guess my theory would work only if the terrain was completly flat around the airport, I'll follow ur hints and for the time being I will work with the rule of 300 feet per mile. thank you
  12. if the angle at which you approach the runway must be 3 degrees, what do u need charts to know the altitude at which u can intercept the glidslope. at a given distance from the runway shouldn´t the intercepting altitude be the same for all runways in any airport? also please tell me, how do you know the distance from where you are to a given close by airport or otherwise thank you in advance.
  13. big help again, now please elaborate a bit more on this "morse code identifier" thank you
  14. very good answer about the ILS, except that about "picking up the glide slop about nine miles out and the plane will start to descend" but what about approach mode? thank you
  15. ok, ok...Im just a poor ol fart who doesnt know crap about flying a plane. what I thot was, that if I approached an airport with autopilot and ILS set, the plane would turn when, the ils signal was engaged. and when the approach autopilot was set, the plane would not only turn towads the strip but would aslo glide down to land, let me put in more simple terms: my plane is sitting in migs field in chicago facing north. I want to be able to land in chigaco ahaire by just clicking full throat and when approachin the strip only lower the speed. what do I do to do that? thank you
