Longitude/lattitude For Southern Hemisphere
Posted: Sat Dec 06, 2008 6:01 amWhat are the correct longitude/latitude settings to use for the southern hemisphere in the FSX general settings dialog?
From the FSX Learning Center:
Selecting Latitude and Longitude Preferences
If you frequently use the in-game map, and you set your position by typing the coordinates into the latitude and longitude boxes on the map dialog box, you may want to adjust the Latitude and Longitude settings in the International Settings dialog box. This will depend on where you're flying in the real world. By default, the latitude is set to the Northern Hemisphere and longitude is set to the Western Hemisphere. When the settings are configured this way, you can type in coordinates on the map dialog box without typing "N" for north and "W" for west. If you're flying in the Southern Hemisphere or Eastern Hemisphere you'll have to type "S" before the latitude value and "E" before the longitude value.
