  1. Funny thing, been pricing out new "high powered" computers and since getting FSX up and running again, all seems to be back to normal. Lost many saved flight plans and find my ltd resurrected flight plans residing in the default aircraft folder? I have only added a few of the e/s/o the USA, I had many going up the west coast, California to Canada, but those will have to wait to see another me, if and when I replace this computer. For now, I am back in business, getting refreshed on all that I thought I had lost, took some time as age is starting to show! Thanks guys and I will try to help where I might be of assistance from time to time. Try to help Mr Zippy when I can, he is a very busy guy! Rick
  2. Thanks Charlie Brown, you think I got problems, wait until you make the plunge with a new computer! Maybe, I'll be able to help you on yours?
  3. Yes, I am getting ready to go thru the same thing. Computer manufacturers have all gotten away from the installed disc drives. I bought a laptop several years ago and i went to use what I thought should have a disc drive, NOT, got to buy an external drive and connect it to your new computer via the USB cable. I am getting ready to purchase a new higher speed computer and I will use that same external disk drive in making that conversion. Hope it helps and all goes well. Just reading some of the newer posts, as I have been away from here for awhile, on Windows 11 not being so great. Most negative comments were meant for Steam edition, and I still have the Gold edition of Flight Simulator X and I am hoping and praying all goes well, as I have a ton of add-on aircraft that still needs to have the dust blown off them! Let me keep reading on! Rick
  4. Aharon - Very nice, Joe's got him a beautiful aircraft to move around in! Thanks for sharing! Rick
  5. Very nice screenshot, Aharon, of another classic and you present them oh so well. Thanks for sharing! Rick
  6. Thanks Bill! I don't know why I have overlooked this one for so long? Just happened upon it this afternoon! Rick
  7. Thanks Phrog! Rick (so much for trying this on my cellphone!)
  8. Very nice, Aharon, thanks for sharing!! Rick
  9. This info was on the old downloads, complete and repaints! Anyway that we can get this info back? When I search for an aircraft, I would rather download 3 - 33mb aircraft than 1 aircraft of 100mb! Rick (Downwind66)
  10. That was a good tv series though, McHale's Navy!! Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway!
