Re: Victorville KVCV Update

Hi Merv - Looks like same problems with Orbx SCA ILS and VASI were not corrected in P3D5 release. Discovered your P3D4 .bgl unfortunately doesn't work in P3D5 due to changes made by LM, and ADE 173 for P3D4 doesn't work for P3D5. If you have newer tools by any chance have you made a KVCV update for ...

"Please ensure the pilot client is running" msg?

Flying KGJT-KSLC encountered a new (for me) issue with my P3D5 client: After connecting my PE Client 1.3.3 browser interface threw me "Failed to connect to client. Please ensure the pilot client is running" red text messages in the browser window. Golt one every 5-10 minutes. After the fir...

Should XP user still disabl"runways follow terrain contours"

Keith - After several years on PE using FSX/P3D, tried XP11.3 for first time for SKY9. All went well- being able to use both COMs was nice, and runways tht aren't flat seem more real. However I wondered whether you still recommend that XP users go to settings\general and disable "runways follow...

Re: voice error NonConnected (1794) disconnect

By any chance are you using Navigraph simlink ? Since I turned off simlink broadcasting a month ago, I haven't had any disconnects.

Re: PE Client Model Set for ORBX GA Aircraft [P3D]

Yes, no longer applicable with the new PE Pilot Client. I think things are much simpler now, and Keith's new client also clamps the ground elevation so people who fly with different scenery no longer appear as landsharks or floaters...

SKY-3 NDB . great fun

Loved Sky-3, both for the scenery and the challenge of the raw data NDB ODP and approach. It's been years, and I found I'd forgotten all the complicated "double the error.." stuff I was once taught. But two simple gouges stuck: 1) On any intercept heading, the needle is always gonna move f...

Re: voice error NonConnected (1794) disconnect

Voice disconnect using PilotClient 1.0.6 happened again last night, about 1:40 into KMRY-KMSO trip.
Voice goes quiet; don't get error message in client till I change frequencies to investigate.
Sent console log to [email protected].

voice error NonConnected (1794) disconnect

Using Pilot Client v1.06 today with P3D4.3 on two rating flights, I became disconnected from the network when approaching the destinations. Messages said VOICE ERROR NotConnected (1794). Wasn't able to reconnect until I amended my callsign (e.g. SKY1672 => SKY1672A). Unfortunately lost my peaware fl...
