Sky writing

Postby commoner » Mon Aug 30, 2004 1:53 am

Hi all....just loaded up 2004 after a long lay off from '98 and finding it all soooo.... different. :o
 A couple of (maybe) silly questions please to get me moving......first "What is FS9?" and also I have tiny red printing ...cessna..etc moving around in my airspace...I suspect these should be small graphics but not sure.
Lots more to ask but maybe one or two of you guys could help me to get of the ground  ;D

FS9 is the 9th edition of Flight Simulator, in other words FS2004 ;D
The tiny red print is the IDs and altitudes of AI aircraft ;)

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

1) Welcome to TheV!! you came to the right place to start out your new adventure!!

2) There are no "dumb" questions, we all start out at one time or another. If you look at some I have asked you should have no worries ;D

3) FS9 is just a short and easy way to say Microsoft Flight Simulator-A Century of Flight ;)

Agreed. There are NO dumb questions. If there is something you are unsure of, or do not know, feel free to ask!

A while back, I started a thread about no such thing as stupid questions and boy did it get negative replys.

The defintion of a "dumb" question differs quite much from individual to individual  me thinks.  :)
So there's no reason to bring that up again  ;)
