Changing Defaults

Postby wyodeacon » Thu Dec 07, 2006 12:35 am

I would like to change my default aircraft and also the airport from Seattle.  I have been reading the manual but can't find anything that tells me how to do this.
Also, is there any way to plan a flight using more than the beginning airport and the ending one?  What I'm asking is if I want to fly from Billings Montana to Miami florida via Denver, Oklahoma City, New Orleans, etc. etc. is there any way to put all of these airports in?
Thanks again.

Load up a flight with whatever aircraft .... at whichever airport... at any time of day with any weather. Once the flight is loaded then save the flight making sure you tick the box labeled Save as default flight.. Shut down your sim and restart it to check it has worked.

Flightplans with takeoffs and landings at multiple airports are impossible ..... you need to land at each airport and file another plan to the next one.

If you save the flight as UI generated flight and check the save as defult flight box the sim will load the aircraft/location/weather settings etc that were used last into the creat a flight screen.
