A treat for the Kiwis

Postby coreservers » Tue Jul 17, 2007 2:07 pm

Had a Jolly around the Bay at Wellington in the De-havilland Dove RNZAF colours.
No reason, just felt like it.
The only thing I have trouble with is that there are no GPS or ATC buttons on the console. Can these be added??
I'd take on a big tour with one of these if they could!!.

Nice. Why would you want GPS on that? Just print out a map and use the clock and compass the old fashioned way ;)
Failing that you can summon the GPS if you hit ALT in flight it'll bring up a menu at the top of the screen and you can activate GPS from that... personally I always use the map as it makes for better airmanship.

Gonna be the C141 starlifter later 1200 miles Auckland to Sydney

There also that crop-duster which I can't find, but if you've seen Mad Max III then you know what I'm talking about.

Hey, X-Gen, been there too!!
