| I too would like to hear from anyone who has even done it. I've looked at the sites posted in this forum but still don't know an IP address to connect to. |

I went to the "Zone" the other day and joined a flight in progress, I found myself flying alone, I didn't see the point.
I must have been doing something wrong but at the "Zone" there aren't too many "polite" people to ask, pity.

I've had some good experiances online, i say about 50 % is fun.
Just go to the zone (explained above) and look at the latency of the server, 3 green blocks is exelent.
Look at the details from the server, i mostly enjoy hops (hopping from city to city) and free flight with (human)ATC, aerobatics is pretty dull in my opinion.
I've met some nice people and have flown with them miles & miles, also added them in Zone-Friends (sort of msn).
When i fly with them we set clock the same and put real weather on so that we see the same, also same plane and program gps the same or use HDG.
Now if u join a room and everybody is already on half the trip its hard to get there, just select the user u want to get close to by doing this CTRL + SHIFT + T untill the name is in your screen (Top right) after that press CTRL + SHIFT + F and voila u behind your target.
Hope this helps a bit, sorry for my bad english. |

I forgot that setting altitude and speed the same as your flying partner is a must until you reach the destination ofcours, its pretty nice to see 3 or more boeings flying close to eachother.
Anyone wanna take a flight with me someday thats fine by me, just leave your details below and i will contact u. |

Thanks for the explanation. All it did for me was launch the Sim and use the default aircraft from the default airport. Now I see more is needed to have a "good trip".
Thanks again, maybe I'll see you in the skies.  |

Just our of curiosity, is there any reason you have used "Flaying" instead of "Playing" more than once? I'm just curious  _________________ Fly Away Simulation, Flight Sim #1 |

OK, I still don't get it. I went to the Zone and looked and looked and I don't see anything about multiplayer FS9. I need real detailed instructions on where to look and what to do.  |

I'm with you, it took me at least ten frustrating minutes the first time. Click on "CD-Rom" and go from there. You have to be a signed up member (free).

Oh sure, CD ROM, why that's so intuitive I should have known! I'll give it a try. Thanks RadarMan! |

So :As much I spend on that business it is not a game at all.
Seruisly:I do not think it is a game. It is much more..
And I respect the members of the forum and my self not to say "playing." |

Oh, Rafi, don't get me wrong - I'm a keen "anti-flight-sim-being-a-game" follower too, as you will see in many of my posts in the forums. I was just curious, because I was considering it to be a typo, but it occured to often and the keys on a keyboard were too far apart - It's just me wondering  _________________ Fly Away Simulation, Flight Sim #1 |
