Got this ages ago, but only started doing it properly now. I'm having real problems on approach. I don't know how to align my autopilot with the runway, so everything ends up free hand, which results in crashes Anyone else play it here, any tips or advice on the approach? I think if i could align my plane with the runway I'd have no problems landing it |

I have the 2002 version but I never used autopilot, I always landed the plane manually Ofcourse 2002 makes it easy though as the only controls I usually use are the Increase/Decrease Throttle, Apply/Release Brakes/ and the Keypad for control. I never completed a full flight before though, just some short stops

Found a joystick today but my bro's gonna hog the PC all day. If he gets off though I'll see if I can connect it up and give it a whirl |

A joystick I'd imagine would make the game easier

Just a tad:P I think I've figured out the approach thingy in autopilot. Has to do with radios and frequency, all quite complicated. After trying to figure it out in the last few days it's apparent why it's called flight simulator |

I finished my first flight! Cork to Dublin, adjusted the heading in the autopilot to get in, was a bit fast but nailed it!!! |

EDIT: Great. Can you make a short, step-by-step instruction how to get autopilot when landing? I have never figured it out. Good to hear that you are doing well. What aircraft do you use? Edited by Snorre, Apr 12 2009, 08:55 PM.

Well I always ask for a visual approach, I then adjust the heading to try and get in, it's not perfect but it works for me. I used a downloaded Airbus 340-300 in the Aer Lingus livery for my first flight Then the Boeing 777 with the 'Landmark Airlines' livery for the one from London to Paris, that was the first in the European Airline Pilot one. Happy flying and safe landings! |
