JSMR Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Great shot. I'm lovin flying the 707, 727 and 747-200(RFP) again. Along with VOR to VOR (trickier then I thougt) and using the INS, flying is fun again. Real fun. Get behind the ball a little and those JT8D's take a little while to spool up. Keeps ya on your toes. https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Craig Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 ***Great shot*** Thanx, just by chance I caught that float plane in the shot. Love the dead reckoning between VOR stations Also love the RFP!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beroun Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Very much agree with this thread title! Made many attempts to go to FSX but more and more I did, I was convinced to go back to FS9. Please! do not want to knock FSX, I am sure it has its advantages. Peter Bendl ex. British Airways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bam1220 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Same here. I have been using FS9 since the day it was released. Tried FSX and went back to FS9 the next day. I also love the older aircraft and like to fly the old fashioned way. About 99% of the time I am flying the HJG B727 or HJG DC9. I love the old birds and the old way of flying.

nightowl56 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 me too "gwilimot" but I thinki'm "flightlexic" FS9 is the best (my thoughts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max50 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I love FS9 but there are some things you just can't have. FSX is all about VAS and frames. FS9 is all about flying and where too? If you like the VAS and frames elements you just won't get that with FS9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmerry Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I was at FlightSim 2017 a couple of weeks ago and saw several bits of software that I would like on my sim, but they are written for FSX. Then I look at my FS9 setup and the large amount of aircraft and scenery that I have built up over 13 years, and decide that FS9 will do nicely, thank you!

Guest lavochkin Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I agree, I still use FS9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSMR Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 After trying FSX with all the bells and whistles, PMDG, Orbx ground and airports, I moved on to FS9 after being left complete underwhelmed by how poor FSX can be. P3Dud seems no better with washed out graphics and a zillion visually enhancements to make it, well, enhanced to a reasonable level. The clouds seem like theyre from fs84. Dear oh dear. 64 bits and 63 of them over rated. I still see it ctds. Lol. Oh well. Such a shame. :D https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgf Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I've stayed with FS9 for numerous reasons. After buying my oncologist a new house and putting my dentist's kids through college I've nothing left for a new computer that would do justice to FSX, so my copy has been buried in the hall closet for years. While screenshots indicate FSX would look nicer for my preferred "low-and-slow" flying, its reputation for instability and incompatibility make me wonder if the aggravation (and ensuing increase in blood pressure, not to mention inventorying my vast stock of unacceptable language) is worth the eye candy. And just plain inertia. With so much time and money invested in FS9, at my age I just don't want to start all over again, especially for something as "quirky" as FSX.

HardCub Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Hello friends - loooong time no talk. The title of this thread grabbed my attention, because as most of you might remember, I am a FIRM supporter of FS2004. It is and always has been my #1 favorite flight simulator of all time. Properly setup, it looks absolutely fantastic and is rock-solid/smooth and totally beautiful! What more can a guy ask for? Hahaha - have a great weekend everybody. ~Glenn 2021 Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming laptop.
