I just bought the above 2nd hand joy stick.  The seller told me to use
it without loading its driver.  I did and it works in MS FS 2004, but
I do not feel any force though.
Should I feel some vibrations or what ?  Or there is some thing wrong

Any opinions on ProFlight Emulator (PFE)?
Is it 'a must have' add-on?

autopilot? What needs to be functional to slow the plane ...

In alt.binaries.pictures.aviation there have been a number of postings of
the Vulcan taken recently at Farnborough.
Apologies if you already have these.   :-)

Anyone know if you can add an ADF (receiver & gauge) to a mooney in FSX?

Just got my first yoke; really enjoying it.
I have a question about the two levers beside the throttle; The middle I use
on the ground as a steering wheel when flying heavies. I don't know what it
does in the air.

After having a wonderful vacation in British Columbia for the past 12
days, I'm glad to be back in Toronto (mainly because it's home).
Even if you didn't miss me, I really did miss the group, especially
while viewing the aircraft at CYYZ and CYVR (Vancouver).  Although I

I've been using two colossal IBM 21" CRT monitors for my FS9 and FSX
simming. They're as cheap as dirt to buy secondhand these days. I've
enjoyed their clarity, colour stauration and the stability of the visuals.
But desktop space being at a premium, I've begun to think about a ...

I thought I had the issue of AA in FS9 and/or graphics card sorted.  So I
tried maxing out nearly all the FS9 scenery display settings.
Then, when I selected AA in FS Display/Hardware, there was no instrument
panel, but the bottom half of the screen was solid black.  If I ...

For those trying to help me, thank you.
