    Thats great news and most likely Helicopters will be in a expansion pack for $. Another reason I am gonna wait ! One thing i do to keep FSX interesting is to follow the NASCAR schedule. Before the race weekend I fly from my home airport KDTW Detroit to the nearest airport where they are racing. Then hop in a Heli and fly to the track. Then back. Am really hoping FS2020 adds Helicopters ! Am designing my new cockpit with that scenario in mind !

    For now all i have is a regular Laptop to run FSX. Had FPS issue's. Made adjustmenst like are being suggested here. Found a program called https://www.wisecleaner.com/wise-game-booster.html to help shut down background crap not required while flying and it helped ! I also spent some time manually getting rid of start up programs that I dont even need !

    Building yes but im waiting for more details about FS2020 and how it interfaces with multi screens, panels etc before I decide on final build !

    Lil Nav Map is very nice. Flight plan, Fuel reports and accurate weather ! You can use the FSX Flight planner and upload it into LiL Nav Map or generate your own ! Free weather that LiL Nav Map is FSXWX https://www.fsxwx.com/home.htm LiL Nav Map https://albar965.github.io/littlenavmap.html

    Been using this site for years. Use it for mapping my around the world tour ! Very cool ! Volcanoe erupting in Hawaii. Change the time to a night of year 1983. Takeoff from Hilo Intl airport (PHTO), climb and maintain 5000 ft, and fly heading 204 for 23 nm. Return to PHTO on VOR 116.90. https://www.simtours.net/hawaii.php

    Watched it and all the others the day they came out. This cat said there was a change. Figured it was BS ! Thanks !

    Heard a buzz on another site ( Ya I know) that FS2020 will not support multiple screens/monitors/TV's etc like FSX, Steam. P3d.... Any truth to this ? So many if ands or butts.lol....

    Hope i dont come across negative, overly critical just cautious and curious. I am wigged to see this puppy on my new system when the build is done ! Even the standard offline version is IMO worth the $60 ! I have been buying MS Flight Sims since FS 1.0. Got almost every edition so I have been thru the promises and let downs. This time I am forced to wait until my new PC's and rig is flight worthy sometime towards the end of the year as my current system falls short..... CANT WAIT !!!!

    Great comment ! Am assuming FS2020 will run better with no barriers unlike FSX ? I know with FSX that the performance gets to a certain level and any more PC power is a waste.

    Thanks Loki ! I looked for hours and found nothing concrete ! I really like ADE, Airport Design Editor tool for FSX ! A little choppy but was fun editing my home Airport near my house. The Airport Traffic, ground crew, gas and electric truck etc in FS2020 looks really cool ! Its really gonna add a realism depth to my/our experience ! I know there is FSX add on's i could purchase but I made a promise to myself not to buy any addon's and spend that money on a new cockpit, PC's etc

    KDTW Detroit, MI south to KTOL Toledo. VFR so I can see my house out by the big Lake :). Flight will not happen until the end of the year as I need to build 2 new PC's and a better cockpit before FS2020 is purchased :( .

    Just watched episode 6, Airports again and seen a tool to add, move, subtract ground crews etc but no Airport design / editor tool. Am I missing something ?
  13. Th1racer
    Thanks again Loki !!!!
  14. Th1racer
    THANKS !!!! Do you know whee I can view the online vs offline visuals ?
  15. Th1racer
    Thanks.... Now that the release date as been set im hoping the NDA will be lifted and we can get some insider comparisons ! If I come across anything I will post it in here
  16. Th1racer
    Nope :) ... You or anyone have a visual comparison of FSX vs FS2020 Standard, Deluxe and Premium regular Airports, Planes vs High detailed etc ?
  17. Th1racer
    Great Link that shows what each version gets with recommended Peripherals / controls ! https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015204020-Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-Pre-order-FAQ

    Each level has more planes and airports than the previous.
  19. Th1racer
    THANKS, was hoping not ! Release date caught me off guard as I need new PC's to run this. My thought was release in 2021 so im way behind schedule now. Hope the wife understands.lol. If not I will see yall in yep, 2021 :)

    Any word if they are gonna charge a subscription to the servers ? I know the developing team said no but now MS has their hands on it so I was wondering. Thanks !

    Brian, Went back and actually stopped doing my usual 5 things at once and focused on your Posts ! Bottom Line your suggestions along with Charlies worked ! I know have SP2 in the free flight, Help, About :)........... THANK YOU GENTS !!!!!!.... Are there any other SP's that I need to worry about before I start to rebuild my Flight empire.lol ?
  22. Th1racer
    Downloaded the file.in option 3, SP2 Installed it or i thought and got the game running with a new Flight Simulator Deluxe version of the game. Thought all was good so I have been flying for sometime. I recently tried to join vATSIM. Said I need SP2. I checked by starting a flight, Going to Help tab, About and sher enough it says I only have SP1 install..... Did a complete delete and reinstall of FSX. Before doing anything I reinstalled SP1 and 2. Downloaded it to the download page and ran install from there.... Still shows no SP2 ? THANKS for your help !
  23. Th1racer
    THANKS !!!!! Same deal, I have it que'd ready for download.... Cant wait !
  24. Th1racer
    Got ADE, Airport Design Editor que'd up ready to download. My delay is waiting for my new DVD's of FSX. Recently decided to move FSX to my new laptop and go all in with FSX. Over the years I lost my originals and had no luck moving the program over without the DVD's. Should be here in a few days. SO excited ! THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  25. Th1racer
