rookie gps question

[joracing3]

I have been downloading some helo rescue missions and they all give cordinates to find the scene how do you get the gps to show them or if you cant how other than checking the map can you find them also one of them gives you nbd's to helo pads but cant get them to work

When you write, please use the commas and the fullstops. They're our friends that make the reading easier.

Beginning from the start: nope, the default GPS doesn't allow you to enter raw coordinates. You can get the sim to show you your actual coordinates on the topmost part of the screen hitting twice CTRL-Z. Unless you have FSNavigator, or another as powerful flightplan editor, you can't define in FS9 a personalized fix of your own to enter in the flightplan, so you can't enter it in the GPS either (but if you have FSnav or other program you can, but in doing so you need then to define and file a flightplan, and this could conflict with the rescue scenario). To make your way toward the coordinates given you from the rescue scenario, you can use the two-times-CTRL-Z maneuver and make your way there by hand (after all is a mission, a little spirit there ). And for last, if the NDB of the scenery doesn't work, then probably is the scenery's fault, nothing we can do here, sorry.
