Paul..... ... ...!!

can i move with keyboard?

On keyboard, arrow keys left and right..

i tried left and right but nothing happen

How have you been managing to control the enormous "Emirates Boeing 777" aircraft, that you refer to in your previous posts?

Using:
(a) A "twist" Joystick, fitted with rudder and throttle control?
(b) Only a QWERTY keyboard, using just the keys?

Time for a visit to the FSX Flying School in the Flight Sim, with a Cessna 172 Trainer, and a Twist Joystick?..... ...!

These are the default keyboard commands.


Note: Make sure Num Lock is OFF before using Num Pad commands.

A lot depends on the controller you're using & whether you want to use the rudder in the air or for steering on the ground. Are you flying with keyboard only?
If you have a joystick without a separate rudder control the easiest method is to enable Autorudder from FSX Settings - Realism. This connects the ailerons to the rudder so you can steer on the ground with the joystick.

1. Place dog, or any other suitable item with a tail, on floor in front of you, facing away from you.

2. Grasp tip of tail with fingertips of right hand, if right handed, or left hand, if left handed.

3. Gently, move your hand in a left direction until a displacement of 45 degrees (approx) is reached.

4. Gently return hand, still gently grasping tail, back to the initial starting position.

5. Gently, move your hand in a right direction until a displacement of 45 degrees (approx) is reached.

6. Gently return hand, still gently grasping tail, back to the initial starting position.

7. Repeat as required.

...and give it a pat on the head..and a bone..after each flight... ...!

Thanks Hagar
other i thinks Circus is the best place to you

Oops.. it's been a while, sorry. Arrow keys however, will control ailerons and elevator if you don't want to use the number keys for them. When I was using the keyboard I always used auto rudder just to eliminate a couple of keys.

Does it have to be a dog? He got awful ticked off and growled when I grabbed his tail just now. Oh wait, I see now, yes, there's his tail. I accidently grabbed the tip of something else...he was laying on his back before. Should have had my glasses on I guess.

Are you talking about during push back from a gate?

If so, use shift+p, then quickly 1 or 2. I don't remember which one goes left and which one goes right though.

You could also look for an add-on push back gauge. I've seen those in some planes too.
