FSX FA-18 GPS and SEQ button crash problem solved.

Hi,
Some of us encountered crashes while trying to display a flight path from a flight plan on the MFD on the FA-18 panel.
To avoid this always check if your flight plan is displayed in the FA-18 flight panel before to press the SEQ button.
Be aware that even if your flight plan and flight path is displayed in the default GPS panel this does not mean that it is also in all the gauges of the aircraft you are currently flying. For instance in the HSI dispay of the FA-18's MFD.

When you want to display a flight path on the FA-18 panel you should always proceed as follow:

1) On one of the three MFDs, press the MENU button, then HSI button, to display the HSI.

2) Now on the HSI display press the GPS button and only if your flight plan shows there you will be safe to display your flight path.

3) Get back to the HSI display by pressing the HSI button and now press the SEQ button and you will see your flight path on the current HSI display.

If the flight plan did not show when proceeding # 2 above you have to reload it from the "flight organiser" menu of FSX before to do all the above procedure again. Make sure you reload the flight plan only. Do not load or reload a

Same problem with the ACL button if you load a flight that has AP values inside. Make sure your AP is disconnected and reset the BALT and ATTH. Disconnect your AP again. Now you should be ok to click the ACL button.
