I got "simple ai" and created a md-83 flight from KPNM to KDEN. Naturally, the AI jet overshot the 3900 foot runway when taking off (I fared much better because I had full flaps and "unlimited fuel" turned on).
The intent behind this was because was interested in fs9' calculation for the time and distance for the trip. Very quickly, the ai flew out of sight, but I had the labels turned on so It was relatively easy to track it.
However, it took an eternity to finally get close to the plane.
I downloaded the cloudfix to help the frame rate, as well as disabling the Autogen and keeping it at 800x600 resolution. As you can see, my plane was an a320, my preferred form of travel for subsonic speeds, as well as for landing at KPNM. I don't use realworld weather because of bad spyware/adware problems every time I hook to the internet.
This is perhaps the closest I got to the plane.
The view from the cockpit.
Jetstalking to the max! Unfortunately, the simulator crashed just as I was trying to land, swerving left and right (I usually don't swerve, unless the fps gets crappy), trying to recover from a stall. FS9 crashed once before. (fs9 keeps crashing because I only have 256 megs of ram, rather than 512.)
Not bad for my 1st fs9 story.
