thanks i give it a go on the weekend
out of interest what checkride have you completed
do u want to be a pilot or is it just a hobby to fly on flight sim?
anyone heard anything about simulator 2006 yet?

This is my first MS flight sim (I'm hooked big time) and I haven't started the lessons yet, I'm having too much fun flying by the seat of my pants.
I usually use the GPS and ATC.
I wanted to take lessons when I was young but real life got in the way and now this is my enjoyment.
2006, we haven't heard anything here, and I haven't seen anything at any other site. I hope they rebuild it for the new generation (64 bit) of hardware coming along but you never know with MS.
Have fun and stop by often, and good luck with the lessons. Thumbs Up!

No image, Tripod doesn't allow "hot-linking" try http://photobucket.com/register.php it's free.

Wait for someone who took the lessons.

I had to eat dinner Cheers!

as I said I didn't take lessons but when I fly with the GPS that happens to me.
I see the strip on the screen, I set the heading but come in sideways like you, not heading at the beginning of the runway.
Wait for one of the pros, like FEM, leadfoot, arkydave or another they'll be glad to help.

After looking at that, The only thing I can say is this. Either you have a glitch, or she wants you to fly ILS landing. But, I doubt it'd be a ILS, because it is only a private pilot checkride. If you don't know, ILS stand for Instrument Landing System, or somehtin similar, I forget exactly. Most likely, you have a glitch in the software. Because that's a long way to fly out. I don't think I can help a lot, for the sheer fact that that's a different version of FS than what I have. I would recommend that you do purchase Flight Simulator 2004.

Now I know that this may not sound like a lot of advice, but as I am not too familiar with the other FSims, I can't help too much. I would put my beans on a glitch in your game...Good Luck!

Is a glitch a problem with the game??
i followed radarman's link

and followed the instuctions but after i got out of the 360 steep turn and flew on i had no other instructions

Did she give you a certificate? You can cheat, I know which folder they keep them in. Rolling Eyes
