Simviation Forums

Hello,
Trying to obtain the file "Visual Navigation for Flight Simulation: Compass, Clock and Chart Part 2 (Category: FS Navigation > Flight Simulator Navigation)". The Zip file downloads ok, but it only contains the 'boilerplate' text file called vfrcharts_secPDF_ReadMe.txt. There is no actual PDF file with Part 2 of the Tutorial. All the other parts of the tutorial downloaded without a problem.

Can you please fix this, or put me in touch with the author, Sean Morrissey? I'm really looking forward to using the tutorial!

Many thanks.

HI

Sean is indeed a moderator here so I will ask him .....

Sorry for the error and thanks for the feedback

Downloaded it myself just today... no problems. I double-checked all of these uploads way back when I submitted them; they should all be good.
But if anyone else has a similar problem, let me know.

Hi beaky,
Thanks for checking, and for the quick response.
I had tried downloading 3 times before, and I just tried again - same result.

I then had a brainstorm - I tried turning on "View Hidden Files & Folders" on my computer and voila, there they were. For some reason, the Properties > "Hidden" attribute was checked on both of these PDF files, but not on any of the others in the tutorial. All is good now.

BTW, I should have mentioned that the 'hidden' file attribute being checked is not something that I did; the files arrived that way.
As a suggestion, site admin might want to consider unchecking this attribute and then re-posting these two files... would avoid others having similar problems.

Many Thanks,
RobTey
