I am reading through that now, thanks, I think this will help alot,,,,"I hope".

 I have yet to figure this Multi-player thing,,,but I'll save that for another time.....lol

 I read tonight that Mickysoft is releasing a new version ?....any insights to what is new ?

 I would like to see a more interactive version, ie.   getting intercepted by a Mig when crossing into Russian Airspace ?.

  How bout a flight where the DEA or Coast Guard is chasing you down and its your job to make it back into the Everglades to make your delivery ? and to keep it with a PG rating, you are delivering sacks of flour  to the needy Indian Reservation Residents ???....Yea thats the ticket !.....lol

Ok, I digress ,,,thanks for your help guys,

Glad I could help ;)

Yes, Microsoft has announced the new simulator that they are working on. It's the "Microsoft Flight Simulator: A Century of Flight"

There's a couple articles on the FlightSimulator Insider @ http://zone.msn.com/flightsim/

As for it being interactive like that, I doubt it.

;DI usually unzip into a temp file, then drag my files/folder to the correct folder in FS2002.  If there are no gaugues or effects to drag, I just drag the aircraft folder directly to the aircraft folder in FS2002 and its always there.  Just gotta make sure you are actually down to the folder containing the Panel, Model, Sound and Texture otherwise it wont show up.  When there are gauges, effects etc, it can be time consuming but that way I dont overwrite things I dont want to or shouldnt.  I am fairly new at it myself but always works for me, so this may sound kind of dumb for a pro at this stuff ;D ;D ;D
