here, this is one http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DL ... D=fs2002ac

D/L'd that and tried the autopilot in Nav and GPS mode,autothrottle and etc. and it did everything for me.

Have another look at it and see if there is something you are missing. Or it may be a corrupt file and you need to download it again.

ive tried reinstalling it, but it still didnt work. when ever i press Z, the plane wont hold where it is, itll just sink down....

Firstly I did mean download it again not reinstall.

Secondly Z is the key stroke to disable A/P.

Are you using keyboard or mouse? There is a list of keyboard commands in 'settings' I think(I murder my mouse through over work!!).

Cheers

ok, can you just tell me exactly what you did to enable it? just so there wont be any confusion. thanx

Hi RX Silver,
               Try loading flight sim as normal with a default aircraft (where autopilot works ok) then using alt key switch the aircraft to one that is giving problems.should find this corrects the problem.      Arthurplum.
