The good news... it's free.  

I am new to the game.  I just bought the above 2nd hand joystick.  The
stick has no tension.  Is it normal or is it defective. (Means all
springs broken).  
Like to know from those who owned and used it.  Many thanks.

As I sit here trying to toubleshoot the same problem in both sims, I'm
thinking I need a tool that will analyze everything in FS that isn't
default. This would generate a list of everything that is "extra" to the

Much credit must go to Arthur (Snake Eyes) for it was his inspiration
that prompted me into making this video. It was his choice of music and

OK, I have the same problem in both sims, FS9 and FSX. When trying to start
my flight at KMUO(Mountain Home AFB), the sim,FS9, stops loading terrain at
22% and freezes. The same thing for any airport in Idaho. In FSX, I can load
Boise Airport(KBOI) but if I try to fly to KMUO or ...

All my recent flights have meant boarding through an aero-bridge or at the
rear of the plane. This week I boarded at Hobart in the chilly morning air
via open stairs at the front of a B737-800.   I noticed two static vents,
one above the other with the top one Captain and the ...

I have a friend in Munster, Germany who has a new computer.

He is unable to get Acceleration to install. I am trying to get more
information from him, but thought I would post here to see if anyone one

As some may recall, I posted here last week, seeking advice on replacing my
lightning-damaged video card.   For the second time in two years, our hotel
took a nasty shot of lightning (one of the downsides of being an airport
hotel -- we're the tallest thing around!), and it ...

It took me a long time to get this one down.
To begin with I had the little V positioned on the screen so that I
