No worries man. I'm still thinking of starting a Virtual Boonah up on the Flight Sim. But I need some support behind me. You can't get it to work. What's the problem mate? Let us know. I'm quite a whiz at the computer so I can help you out. Just a thought.

Gentlemen, Next-week I plan on extending an oppourtunity to members of both this forum and the public in having a airport fully-operational for a period of 1 week next week (4 -10 Apr 11). If there is anyone interested in participating in the session next week, please send me your details via PM or just post them below. Depending on the level of interest, it will be 24/7 operational airport with a series of events and hops around Australia. If you guys have any suggestions, post them here? Then we can make up a schedule of flights including times/dates of arrivals and departures from Boonah. I can make a basic website in the mean-time with a Pre-Flight Briefing Service, etc. The Primary aerodrome and base of all operations for this exercise will be Boonah, Queensland. There are two facilities avialable at Boonah: AirSport QLD (hangar) - flying school Flying Tigers (clubhouse) - club/group of recreational enthuasists I encourage that we all make good use of these facilties for the duration of the week. By parking outside and using the hangared parking that Boonah has to offer. The session details are as follows: AirSport QLD Virtual (subject to change) Lobby: Free-flight / Flight Training (depending on interest) Scenery: Aussie Ants Airports Boonah Scenery Aircraft: RAAus and General Aviation Approved aircraft.

Wow, that's hard to believe.

Just recapping what Owi had to say. The FTX/ORBX Team has been developing a J230 for quite sometime now. Make sure you guys drop by the website and purchase a copy of Cairns! It's amazing best release that I've seen yet. Is there anyone that would like to have a flight in Anthony's Technam Seirra sometime next week? Cheers, Skype: max.lye

You guys up for a fly this week or next? I've got my system up and running did a real nice clean-out. Full settings with REX 2.0 and I'm getting a constant of 35FPS. Also I ordered the Technam Sierra last week and received it in the mail on Monday. What a week so far! You gentlemen keen for a small hop from Boonah to Redcliffe or such? I flew that route today and you come across alot of remote airstrips and farms. Fantastic scenery when you have FTX! Cheers,

No worries mate. I doesn't have to be so early. However look out for a session in Gamespy. It will be named AIRSPORT QLD VIRTUAL . Thanks in advance, Max.

No worries mate, other relevant information regarding this demonstration is TO-BE-ADVISED. Except circuits at Boonah. Cheers,

Hey mate, Been pretty flat out all week. I should be able to do a Flight from AirSport's Hangar around late Wednesday. It should be sooner than that. I'm getting some more RAM put in my 'beast' currently has 6 but I want 8! Haha. Yerr just doing a routine checkup on the system all is good. Cheers, Max.

Sure thing do you have Skype or an email address or would you like me to post it in this topic?

Just a note on that recent release. It's absolutely fantastic the work that he does. Thank you Anthony!

Haha! Fantastic sounds great. I'm just having a few problems with mine at the moment. Crashing on start-up. Just a little fiddle around I should have it working in a week or two. Excellent.

David, How are you mate. As you requested, I have the Download Link for Anthony Lynch's Boonah scenery: Ants Aussie Airports Boonah - OZx Forum It's absolutely fantastic scenery. I suggest you look at the other scenery packages available on the Aussiex.org website. Just click the Download File - away you go! Post any problems that you may have installing this scenery. Cheers, Max.

BP, Will do.

Orienteer, Sir. As a keen Flight Simulator enthusiast I also have three monitors in which I use whilst flying. May I ask. What is your operating system? Can I get a model description of your Graphics card? I can solve this issue I just need these details to provide you with information in how to set up this feature. Do you have Skype? I should be able to set up this up over a Screen share. My Skype is: max.lye I'll be looking forward to hearing from you soon, Cheers, M.G. LYE 26 Sep 10

Third Party Contracts Gentlemen, I think the best move here for Microsoft to impress us users is to contact third party companies being offered with contracts to develop specific sectors of Microsoft Flight whilst Microsoft brings it all together as a whole. Imagine the scenery being of a FTX standard. Imagine the aircraft being of a Captain Sim standard. I rest my case! Cheers, M.G. LYE 26 Sep 10

Contact BP, Sounds great. Perhaps a feature article in the Magazine would be a good idea. I'm going to get onto Greg (CFI) at Boonah just to clear some things up with him in regards to the operation of this Virtual AirSport QLD. I believe it's a fantastic idea to utilise the scenery at Boonah made by Anthony. Having 'nights' scheduled for people each Friday/Saturday Night or sometime during the week wouldn't be of a bad cause. Like I said no further development cannot be made without Greg's endorsement. However, if you have any questions or queries. Please feel free to leave them here.

Absolutely, Hopefully they'll take the time to read through the concerns and ideas that FSX Enthusiasts have posted regarding this new Microsoft Flight and what'd like to expect. All I can say is. Strap yourself in and enjoy the ride! Cheers, M.G. Lye 6 Sep 10

Pathway effect perhaps? Cheers, M.G. Lye 6 Sep 10

CPU & Graphics Card Gentlemen, Just a thought. With this new Microsoft Flight, I'm sure that we'll like to see drastic improvements in the workload balance between a computers CPU and Graphics Card. Without any costly results. Swiftly, M.G. Lye 6 Sep 10

All, I would to notify you all of my progress in establishing a Virtual Recreational Flying Community on FSX. The website is within it's final stages as things start to take shape. I wish to attract users from his particular forum that have a passion for flying to pull your fingers out and get involved. This Virtual Community's resemblance to the real world is still be decided. However the airfield choice in Boonah, Queensland. For those who are unaware of this location/airfield. I suggest you all download Ant's Aussie Airports Boonah Scenery to have a better look. Aircraft that will be used at this airfield are generally not restricted however official freeware community aircraft are still to be decided. If you are interested in joining this Virtual Community or wish to find out more information please either post your questions and queries below or you can email me: [email protected] Cheers, M.G. Lye 6 Sep 10

Doesn't stop raining in the NT. Start of the Wet Season up here is November and it's already raining mid way through the dry season. Regards, M.G. Lye 6 Sep 10

BlackRod, Would a Technam: Eaglet or Super Echo be an alternative? Cheers, M.G. Lye 5 Sep 10

David, Yes the Technam Eaglet is a terrific aircraft. Handles just like a Cessna. :big_grin:
