FLIGHT TIPS

Postby George7 » Sun Jun 28, 2009 9:20 am

Can't get rid of Flight Tip "ADJUST MIXTURE". Tried setting Tool Tips to "OFF" - No change, it just keeps reaappearing about every 15 seconds.

Are you adjusting the mix? I've never seen that message, but I constantly adjust the mix.... Just sayin'.

There should be a place in the .cfg file but I haven't ever needed to shut it off so I can't point you specifically to the spot.

Yes, I adjust both mixture and prop pitch as altitude and situations change. The darned flight tip just won't quit. It's extremely annoying!

The other option in Realism settings is to "Enable Automixture".

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
