I just decided to quit MSFS development 2 days ago and I know the FS2002

If it is POH type data that you are looking for, I have a similar set at home.

Yes, very much. After I was cleared for takeoff, I backtracked to the

stopped the plane completely. I took a breath for two seconds, then
pushed in the throttle and the rest was

As a result of playing with with routes / flight plans, one thing I
forsee in the future is driving navigation instruments from a non-radio
source (i.e something like the NAV / GPS toggle which I'm led to believe
is common in many GA craft with a GPS fitted).
Now, the problem is that such systems

This was forwarded to me by my mother-in-law. I checked back to SI to
see if they were the attributed source and found a link to a movie on
the subject as well. Why the original author chose to submit to SI, I
don't know.
