I'm trying to use a British Midland A320 AI aircraft. The one I've found is an evolve/djc model but it requires the evai_a320_iae air file. Unfortunately, the evolve/djc base pack only include the DJC_A32X air file. I've searched everywhere and although scores of repaints mention the DJC_A320 IAE base model I can't seem to find this anywhere. Can anyone shed some light on it, or tell me where I can get this air file?

Many thanks.

I've tried anumber of FAIB aircraft but none work as AI aircraft, which is what they are designed for. In the Aiorcraft Textire folder there is only one texture file and in every case it doesn't work, and is not recognised by AIFP3.

Just a tip for everyone that this has happened to. I was trying to uninstal FSX but kept getting this message:

Error: 0x80040702 - Failed to load DLL:: GameuxinstallHelper.

I hunted and hunted, then came across this address:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed-cca7d1b6-65a9-3d98-426b-e9f927e1eb4d.

And I can tell you - It Works, for installing as well as uninstalling.

Just thought I'd share this with you.

Allan

Sorry il88, that doesn't happen. I'm very careful to carry out the procedure. And it always seems to happen from Approach frequency no matter what airport I'm at.

I tried it again this afternoon. Whilst on approach I got two instruction to climb, one to 160 and then to 240. So, at this point communication was ok. But then it stopped. Nothing further. No futher climb instructions and no instructions to change ferquency.

It gave me an airport list only.

I think a re-instal is my only option, but thanks for the onfo anyway.

Allan

Thought I'd try rebuilding my FSX.cfg file. Doesn't cure it. But I was looking back through old posts and I'd forgotten that I raised the same issue in 2014. At that time there were no suggestions that solved the problem and then I ended up re-installing FSX. Looks like I'll have to do the same again. GRRRRRR.

Allan

Thanks for the heads up. Printed this off incase.

Allan

FINALLY, got to message their Zendesk, their tech line for slight sims, contacted via email, only to be told they don't support earlier versions of Flight Sims, only the most recent. They say the "Flight Sim Community" will be able to help. ?????

I can feel a reinstallation coming on. GRRRR.

Allan

MICROSOFT ARE AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE!!!!

I'm having an issue at the moment with my DVD player so not able to play around with Acceleration, so I decided to try Microsoft. Sheeesh. What a disaster.

The usual long wait and then the recorded options didn't include help for flight sims, so I chose Windows option, thinking at least they'd put me through to the right department. Asked me what the problem is. I knew this was a waste of time but went through the motions, STRESSING it is FSX. They put me through where I was asked what the problem is, only to be told, "this is the XBox helpline, but I'll transfer you".

So, where did they transfer me to? The Windows help section! I was, of course, asked what the problem is. Grrrrrr. I told them, getting briefer and briefer eveytime. So they transferred me. Where to? You've guessed it, XBox !!!!!!. Again, transferred......to Windows.

Struggling to keep my cool. But this time, the guy I was talking to said he knows a bit about FSX and would talk to someone who could help, if I'd hold for a short wile.

ONE HOUR LATER I was still holding. Whereupon I hung up.

So, after nearly 1 1/2 hrs I'm still none the wiser.

Hi John. Yes, got it, now. Now I just have to find out how to use it. lol. My first attempt was a failure. But you know the old saying, when all else fails RTFM.

Thanks again.

Allan

Thanks for thet, Tiger.

Allan

John, I get that but when I initiate that zipped file I get that encryption box, and nothing else.

Allan

Tiger, are there any problems with uninstalling Acceleration and SP's? I read that this will uninstall everything that's been installed since Acceleration was installed. Is this true? And, in reality, what will I lose?

Allan

Mr Zippy. I have that link but when I try to use it all I get is and Encrypt 4 box, requiring an encryption code.

Allan

Whilst trying to resolve my ATC issues I thought I'd try Radar Contact. However, when I send an email to register and obtain a key I Get a failed to send response.

Can anyone help?

Allan

Yes, I'd read that. But that's far too much effort. lol. Just very grateful that others are prepared to do it and I really do appreciate it.

Allan

Seems I was wrong. I returned to a previous flight and had the same problem. Each time I've had the problem it seems to be on handoff from Approach contoller to en route.

Oh well, it's back to the drawing board.

Allan

Hello John.

Yes, I'm aware that not all stuff from FS2004 will transfer but there was a lot of information that I know will be useful.

Take care.

Allan

OK. So using the same aircraft, not a default or saved flight, I created a new flightplan from Singapore to London. On handoff from Approach I got the same problem. Just No Messages To Transmit.

I removed some areas of mesh scenery and reset the flight. Everything seems to work, now, I got 2 handoffs and 3 level change instructions.

Later, will go back to my previous flights to try them again. Then I suppose some detective work (grrrrr) to find the culprit.

I'll update you all later.

Allan

Thank you, John. Got it. Plus a bonus is the info you have on your site. I run FSX but I'm sure a lot of FS2004 stuff is relevant.

Thank you, once again.

Allan

Not starting from default or saved flights and so far I've tried flights starting in Spain and the UK. Will try further afield tomorrow. On my knees, tonight.

Allan

Hi. Does anyone happen to know where I can get a call sign for EditVoicePack, for Aviaco? It's a nightmare wading though lists and lists so I was hoping someone had come across one sometime in the past.

Mank thanks.

Allan

Tried removing my Catalunya scenery, which covers the region I was flying in. I also reversed the flight and created a new flight plan from Cardiff.

Same problem. In the last 2 attempts I've had the same problem but added to it I got Nearest Airport list.

Allan

Thanks Mr Zippy. Tried both but neither helps.

I tuned the comm radios manually but had no effect.

One solution suggested was to re plan the flight, but because I'd already done that by planning for another departure airport I guess that won't do, either. Going to have to check the effect of assed scenery, I guess.

Oh, and FSX is installed off discs.
