Downwind66 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 It doesn't get much better than this aircraft! David S likes the long X-Country flights and he pulled this one out just recently, one I have overlooked for a long long time! Fast and Comfy!

DAVIDSTRAKA Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Nice one Rick! Definitely fun to fly. Is that the FSX default?

Downwind66 Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Yes, it is, you had it out in one of your most recent flights. I saw it and said, it's been awhile, let me take it for a spin from Detroit Metro Wayne to Pittsburgh! Nice aircraft!

peer01 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Expensive jet Rick! :eek: I think It must be a great experience to sit in the cabin and have a bottle of Champagne while on your way to your holiday destination :cool::cool::cool: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 Oh, Jan, now you are daydreaming of such an adventure! You are talking about the passengers having a bottle of Champagne, and not the pilots? Yeah, this default Lear is really terrific!

Thanks for commenting! - Rick :cool: I see it wasn't the 45th Anniversary model. I strarted my trip with that one you were using but the airspeed hold button wasn't engaging. I noticed yours was showing green. I had to switch to the anniversary model. Odd.

Downwind66 Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 David - Funny you should say that! This morning I tried the White/Gold Lear, cross country from Baltimore/Washington to Richmond, VA, and lo and behold, the plane ran out of memory. Yep , pre dawn flight, running panel lights, and I guess it just told me, nope, I can't do this for you, at least not in the darkness hours. Oh well,I have 8 GB of Ram, I want to upgrade to 16 GB Ram, but until that happens, I have a few select aircraft that are prone to quitting on me mid flight. Some aircraft I have, can take whatever I can throw at them, no issues at all! :rolleyes: It is a nice aircraft, both the White/Gold and the Anniversary Lear 45!..

It just amazes me how the computers we run with flight sim can do things like that. Sometimes I wish I understood better hwo memory, CPUs and all that stuff really works down to the electron level but alas, I really don't have the time to dig that deep :rolleyes: It really impresses me the folks here that have that kind of knowledge.

flightsimg Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 how memory, CPUs and all that stuff really works down to the electron level but alas, I really don't have the time to dig that deep :):) not that much complicated I lately installed a simple, freeware, memory manager. It cleans the load of the PC's working memory when it exceeds 80 percent, for example. And that's great because my last Boeing 737-200 flight kept mostly working all along! That's called 'Memory Cleaner.' Much variants of such freewares (check something like 'memory, clean,' etc. with a search engine (beware as some freeware like that may install unwanted things)) On the other hand, I'm also using a -- freeware of course -- cleaner, register defrag, unuseful files manager, etc. called Advanced SystemCare. That's from a brand called Iobit, I think. Much fine. Alleviate the work of your PC components! Much useful but don't try to get into much advanced utilities they propose, on the other hand Gérard Guichard, Dijon, Burgundy, France. i5 Intel processor, 4 Go of Ram, Nvidia GeForce 920MX, DirectX 12.0, and FSX Gold Edition with SP1, SP2.

Rupert Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Hey Rick, Great shots!! The Lear is one of my favorite planes as well. Having said that, if you want a slightly smaller but hugely fast bizjet go to the download files on this site and get the freeware Honda Jet. It's hugely satisfying and has lots of interior details etc. In fact I've flown several payware aircraft I don't like nearly as well as that freeware plane. ;) Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

Rupert Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Also my problem, I invest a fortune in a PC and hope it will work... So say we all!! Having said that, I do enjoy building a new computer from time to time. That way I know exactly what I have and if any piece doesn't suit me I just return it and install another I like better. In fact I'm very interested in seeing the recommended specs for the new Microsoft sim, if it ever comes out. I've almost always used Intel CPUS and I've heard they're designing the new sim around the AMD chip. So I'll have to see how it flies with my current i-9K based build.
