Flight simulator 2004 help!

[efq]

I wos wondering can you post all tips and hints in here for me and everyone.


Because. I learning, but when learn't.


I don't know where to fly to places ect.. when scheduled.

And where to get there LOL


I have fs2004 , ATC AND squawkbox.


Stick this if yall want too.

[Yoshimitsui]

An easy one is Manchester to Heathrow. Easy takeoff and landing just follow the gps and can't go wrong. How experienced with the fligh controls are you? And what plane do you use?

[efq]

LOL


1day experience.

LOLOLOLOL



And I dont know which aircraft :D


Im trying to taxi but I cannot go straight with keyboard.

I either go right or left

[Yoshimitsui]

Ahh yes, keybord is very very hard. Joystick makes life alot easier.

Try the cessnas as their easy to handal and once you are good in that then try the B737. Instead of TAxing, set it to automatic runway lineup. So you are straigh on the runway when you load the flight.

[efq]

I won a joystick on ebay today.


So it should be here soon.

I had a flightplan. Heathrow to Manchester.

And I end up halfway to spain/portugal.



Atc SUCK!

[Kenneth]

Because your usig ITA codes use EGLL for heathrow ang EGCC for man

[---MAD---]

I need tips on taxi movements. Any tips?

[efq]

Ye, these codes I dont understand yet.


I am only good at landing with a engine failure LOL


Which I woulda fought was harder

[jdr10027]

it is probs easy, cos when you land you have to turn the power down so the plane starts to drop. if you have a total engine failure the plane will drop so it will be easy :D

about the tips well i am needing some tipps, like where do you lot get the planes, when i get addons i dont realy get that much planes maybe 1-5

[OMGitsaROSS]

Easiest it probably:

Southampton - EGHI
Jersey - EGJJ

45 Minutes of pure flying, no turning except for one at the end! :)

[Yoshimitsui]

The best way to taxi i would say is to like rev the throttle. LIke up and down instead of keeping it on low. It workd for me.

[Dan!]

lol at you lot :P the code for airport more less easy

[jdr10027]

does any1 know where i can download planes/features???

[Yoshimitsui]

Just search it on google. It brings up loads.

[OMGitsaROSS]

lol at you lot :P the code for airport more less easy
If all you can do is criticise then leave.

[jdr10027]

Just search it on google. It brings up loads.lol i have, but never realy find anything that workes, it never loads the planes :-(

I alway google it

[Yoshimitsui]

Ahh i seee, ill have a look!

kk thx looks good

[sock]

err.. theres tutorials inside the game? dnt ask for help, until you actually know whot o do a full flight..

[madmike666]

If you want a smooth sflight i would say manchester to liverpool using a cassesna as there good to start with. Dont start with a 747 as they are hard to use at first. and i agree, use a joystick.

[efq]

I flew heathrow to manchester yay!



2nd time I did :)




1st I landed and the plane wouldnt stop!!!1111


Brakes on. But I went on grass through houses and and stopped after 2 years x.X

[today]

I often use the boeing. x]

:)

[efq]

I used boeing.



BUT HOW I STOP PLANE ON LANDING.


And when I land the plane go's back up again >.<

[---MAD---]

I used boeing.

Slow down before landing.

[efq]

er lol i dno how to rofl.


I always land and the thing on bottem ryt says

OVERSPEED lol

like 550nts :D!

Ineed to learn

[Ashhizzle]

And when I land the plane go's back up again >.<
I was going to say, usually space bar = brake LOL

[efq]

its .

or use the panel


I SLAM PARKIN BRAKES SOMTIMES I GET SO ANOYED LOLOL

[Yoshimitsui]

lol, well lower your speed on aproach and apply speedbrakes then cut spped brakes extend to necisery falps and when you touch down Aplly reverse thrust and speedbrakes, esasy :D

[OMGitsaROSS]

Thust - Minimum

Airbrakes - / - on

Thats how to slow down

[ScottDiamond]

Or use the flaps. :)

I actually really enjoy flying the Beechcraft from Jersey to Southhampton - nice and smooth and if you fly at night you can see all of the south lit up. :)

[Adam!]

Easiest it probably:

Southampton - EGHI
Jersey - EGJJ

45 Minutes of pure flying, no turning except for one at the end! :)

Turns are involved in the SID (Standard Instrument Departure) at Southampton and the STAR (Standard Terminal Arrival Route) at Jersey.


err.. theres tutorials inside the game? dnt ask for help, until you actually know whot o do a full flight..

And you know how to do a full flight, doing everything correctly do you? - I think not, and for a post like that you've just lost everything you had to do with TravelWorld Virtual Airways.

Okay guys and gals, the approach speed someone is going at (510kts) is FAR TOO FAST.. The maximum approach speed in a B767 is 180knts.. So the aircraft you are flying, should be ALOT slower..

To slow the aircraft down, use the correct amount of flaps, and speedbrakes if needed.. You idealy want to touch down at about 141kts in a 767-300 aircraft.. About 100ft above the runway, close the thrust leavers (about 5% power) for the flare and the landing, about 10ft above the runway ****** the thrust leavers (idle) and on touch down go into reverse thrust mode, deploy your spoilers (speedbrakes) and use the manual breaking system which is pressing the (.) key!

Me and mate do Filton to Jersey, Plenty of good flying, Turning, Bit of wind :) makes it interesting, Takes about an hour and half

[ScottDiamond]

How do you reverse the thrusts?

[Adam!]

Bring the throttle right back, and then pull it further back and reverse thrust should be selected.

[Yoshimitsui]

No the Reverse thrust canot be diployed by doinf that it has to b done manually with the mouse or keybord. As on a plane you pull two/four leveres on top of the throttle.

[ScottDiamond]

How do you do it with your keyboard?

[OMGitsaROSS]

Don't is the simple answer ;D

It is alot easier (imo) to use a joystick

[Adam!]

I fly real life alot, just so you know ;)

And thats what I said, PULL THE THOTTLE FURTHER BACK... Which will do EXACTLY the same as keyboard ways..

Im taking it you guys all have freeware planes, thats why I say pull it all the way back.. If you have Level D 767 then you have to click the 2 litle leavers behind the main thottle levers on the throttle quadrent, as this engages the reversers..

Btw, if turn the reversers off at about 60knts, as real life it would end up melting the engines (as would going full throttle on takeoff - Never use full thottle unless for an emergency or go around, and then only for 10 minutes!)

[Yoshimitsui]

Yeah, cos on my throtlle if i pull it all the wayback it just cuts the engines, i cant deploy Revere thrust this way, so i use keys ;)
