What are some essentials to download? Scenery, cool planes ect ect?

I'm running with an GeForce 8800gt, 2gb ram, dual core processor @ 3mhz. Much better then when I tried to play this 5 years ago :D

All Fly Tampa & for the UK, UK2000 Scenery Extreme airports (that have jetways that work) plus Silverwings & Flight Environment.  World of AI to populate your airports & skies is a great addition.   I'll compile a list of aircraft to add to this............. ;) ::)

Thanks for the suggestions!

Anyone know of some Dallas or other Texas scenery?

Or, what program I can use to make my own?  ;D

Did you search the Simviation library for Dallas or Texas sceneries?

Here.

If there is nothing to find (highly unlikely) there might be something of your likings here.

Very first question to ask, HolmesFans, is surely, "What do you currently most enjoy doing in FS"?

Short hops, instrument flying, record-breaking, high speed stuff, routine 'train driver' airline stuff, round-world trips...........?

It's a big field. The best thing about FS is that you can 'try' almost anything.

Please give us an idea of what you currently enjoy doing best, and we can all offer good advice......?

Hi Paul,

Its a Model Kite Katie, which has recently been re-released, and is back on the market again... ;)...!

Slightly Shop soiled, but in reasonable working order again...

...apparently?... ::)...!

Paul... :)...!

I'll package it up, and post it over to you, Carlo...after I've tried/worn it out... :)...!

Looks like a possible CG problem there - a purely visual observation
