Hi People

I recently downloaded a 767-300ER for combat FS (flies beautifully) and have been taking it up and testing it out. Problem is, when im up, i don't have anything to guide me to an airport or airfield to land in.  

So if any of you know how to find an airport well before you get there then please help me.

Cheers  ;D
Now if something goes without saying, then why do people say it??

Hello again!  Sounds like you like to do the same kind of flying that I do.  I use "GPS Gauge for CFS" by Chuck Dome.  It works really well for me but you have to enter the lattitude/longitude coordinates which can be found when you scroll through the list of airfields.  You can find it at http://www.simviation.com/fsgauges2.htm

Also many of the airfields don't have any scenery.  You can add some for a bit more realism by using "Static Object Designer v1.2" also by Chuck Dome.  I've been having fun with that alot lately.  Chucks quite the guy isn't he?  That is found at CFS utilities page 2.

Have fun!!

;D If you go to the www.RAF662.com site,you can dl ADF frequency add on and ADF guages add on.This will give you a radio beacon to home in on to get to different airfields.Also, H_Squad at www.Navyair.com have a number of sceneries that all have VOR nav aids and ILS systems.I have done a few myself. www.geocities.com/ddave_9af/
