Dear Gentlemen,
Seeing all of these wondefull ideas I was wondering if I could join up and strongen the team by applying for a possition as groundcrew. Haven't seen many reply's on this yet, so i guess there is still enough of place left.
Only one small problem.... Don't have any FsX yet,..... but do not worry,.. have it ordered together with a complete new "STRONG" computer that can handle as many fire at Andras as you wish. I have already been on FS2004 for quite a long time so adjusting to fsx should not me any problem
Ojyeah, this willl be my equipment: the Rosenbauer Panther available at FlightSim Maybe an idea for someone at aerosoft to change the texture a bit so it becomes a real

Thanks Oliver !!!
Just take your time, I understand you guys are really busy with all these new holiday-destinations, and probably also busy with your own holiday!!
Kind regards

Hi Oliver,
I know what you mean, yes the aircraft should be parked somewhere else, but why is that second jetway on the pic (right one) then positioned IN the building, or is this normal?
And concerning the A380, do you mean to say that there isn't any upperdeck jetway, or is this available in a (payable) update like at EDDF?
Kind Regards,
Swayze

Hi Guys !!
Just checked for previous reposts but could not find any on my problem, or actually two problems that are probaly related...
1. I can't find any A380 - gate with 3 jetways... is this possible??? I checked out every terminal!
2. Just check out the picture... You'll see that the gates are slightly dislocated, and with some, parts are even missing. Looks like AES came on top of the original gates or something.
Thanks in advance and wish you all a nice weekend!

Hi Shaun,
Problem solved !!! Just deleted fs9.cfg file and now all buildings reappear aswel as PMDG MD-11 cockpit textures...
Thanks allot Shaun!!!!

Hello Shaun,99
I just flew from LEPA to EHAM, both sceneries from aerosoft on FS9, and was surprised when I landed in EHAM. While in LEPA still having all buildings etc, everything was gone in EHAM. (see attachment pic) I already checked the library, but no, nothing double... And a few days ago it all worked at EHAM, and now is doesn't, while not having edited anything in the library.
Hope you can find an answer for this one, as I can't recall changing anything...
Kind regards,
Swayze
(btw: just flew the PMDG MD-11, and lost quite alot of textures there too, and gauges..., is this related??? All worked fine 2 months ago before switching to FSX and back to FS9........)

Hi Shaun,
Sorry for my late reply but haven't been on the pc for a while.
I just checked and negative Shaun, everything is available only once,..., and the SC file is listed above the LC file(if it would be of any importantance...)
I have no idea why only this add-on is being difficult as all the others just function normal after reinstalling them on my pc.

Good evening everybody, or perhaps a goodmorning to you all,
6 months ago I decided to switch over to FSX but because of performance-issues Ii decided to come back to the old familiar FS9. When using FS9 in the past I had no problems, but now when suddenly reinstalling France 2 on FS9 I loose all my buildings at the France 2 airports.
At Biarritz I loose buildings except jetways and groundtexture like roundabouts, runways etc... At Toulouse I loose some buildings (the ones that are visible are just completely gray or not really with a kind of texture), and my groundtexture of runways etc is just gray without any markings... And I suppose Paris would be the same...
Now I wonder if you guys can help me with this problem. I am already aware of the fact that a few days ago someone posted something similar, but with him atleast some buildings are visible, with me none, so I thought it would be another case. Searching the forum for this problem did not result in finding a similar other topic.
If there is more information needed, I'll be glad to help you out.
With Kind Regards,
Swazye de Heij

I was surprised today when I quickly looked at 'the casper live tracking' site. http://casper.frontier.nl/
What I saw was a Ryanair 737-800 flying north-east in de Dublin area. But suddenly it disappeared from the radar, probably because it left the map-coverage I think.
Strange that there still was a bit of activity although the airpace being closed... Have no idea what 'HE' was doing there

I hope aerosoft develops more airline sims, as this aircraft is stunning, and you can already see its popularity with the multiple threads with 1,000+ posts. i think the high detail/ lighter system/ good frames on an airline sims of this quality will be hugely successful. Maybe in the next few years we will see some boeings?
It would be nice
but I think aerosoft more looks at the market and their 'big' clients... I guess this Airbus was a perfect choice, as there isn't much 'good and serious' stuff around, but of Boeing aircraft their's plenty ranging from the leveld 767 to the PMDG 737/747/ possibly 777 etc... So it's likely aerosoft will come out with a boeing product, unless one of their 'big' clients asks for it ofcourse;) Correct me if i'm wrong Mathijs, but this is my point of view of how you guys 'handle'.-

True, BUT we got a good measure here. See we know the VC is about as fast as the default Airbus in FSX (do not ask why, we got no idea, but it simply is at this moment) and the if you see the external you will loose about 25% of FPS compared to the default Airbus. Most certainly it will compare favorably to the F-16 as we learned a lot since that project. So I would not worry.
We really worked hard on keeping this one fast enough to use on the high end scenery that's being done at this moment. Any good aircraft will have to share the resources with the surrounding and we feel a lot of aircraft do not do that at this moment.
Thanks Mathijs, guess these sleepless-nights were not needed
keep up the good work! -
Dear Mathijs,
I really love the way you guys work, and the products you bring onto the market but there is one big thing that's bothering me about this airbus. As I have just switched over to fsx, because I was charmed by this airbus(altough not being an airbus-fan at all) my FPS are a bit fussy. I wondered if the frames would be better or worse than the aerosoft f-16. I know that the f-16 works fine on my pc and my frames, around the 15, are good enough for me as I have never known better. I know you always said the fps will be good on this bus, but our pc's aren't the same:P
Kind regards to you and your team and keep up the good work!!

I can confirm it also happened to me. yesterday I bought FSX and PMDG 747X and a few times I ended up in the german part. I just navigated back, and started again, and finally it worked out.

Yeah this is really one of these 'shit happens' moments. One of the beta testers or one of the people we invited to repaint send the beta to the places where the low life of the internet hangs out. The files are useless as they are for sure not flyable, they just give a nice impression of the good looks of this project. What bugs me is that one of the persons I trusted ######ed me. One of the people I talk with is a rat.
What bugs me as well is that there is a good chance we'll raise the retail price of the product because of this. People who want it will buy it, but when it is available on the pirate nets we loose the low end of the market and might as well raise the price. And no, this is not new, this happened with two of our project (Catalina for example) and at least 4 projects of friends. In the end it means little. A Euro more means nothing to the person who wants this and we'll be okay. Somewhere there's a rat that probable feels good about what he done and who does not care about that Euro YOU paid. See piracy does not hurt us a lot, customers pay for it. Until they let thieves (pirates) know what rats there are it will happen.
Dear Mathijs,
Let me tell you a short story. I am 17 years old, and still at school. Just a few weeks ago I had to make a project for my Dutch lesson. In Dutch it's called a 'pleidooi', don't know what the englisch word is. Something were you talk about something and say why you're against or for it. So together with a friend of mine we talked about piracy. Out of experience a friend of mine told me, who is in a band and makes cd's, that 75% out of 100% of the money he schould be getting, he doesn't receive because of people downloading it on kazaa etc... SO as a flightsim fan, I checked what actually was available on the net, and was astonished. On torrent sites you can really find alot, sometimes with virusses, but it really is disgusting:wacko: And you even find torrentfiles where email-adresses and registrationnumbers are given so one could install the files.
I just want to make you aware of this, but you probably already knew about it... Maybe it's one step you could take against piracy by looking for names...
Kind regards, and I hope you can soon find your 'bug'

Dear Mathijs,
From seeing these last pictures I have decided to completely switch over to fsx, as I am now still on the old fs9. Like you said, fsx has much more to offer. But there is one little thing of what I have a question about. I already checked the forum but couldn't find any solution to this.
As you know, Airbus only works with the sidestick (apart of A300/310), but now I was wondering what will be the function of the sidestick prioritybutton on the airbus. Would we have to press the button before take-off to gain control of the aircraft? And will the copilot's sidestick then remain unmoved?
Just asking, because I wondered how you guys would solve that.
Kind regards, and have a nice weekend.

I know that you guys are really busy and realise that the add-on has just been released, so I would like to say that you guys can just take your time. Makin an update doesn't go that quick so for all of them asking when an update would be available, I think we can still wait for a long time, if you understand what I mean.
Amsterdam isn't their only project. And the question what I would like:
Adjustment of the taxi lights (brighter),
runway lights alligned,
scenery improved so it is to be seen from further distance like EGLL EDFF etc,
brighter building at night, so as if the building were lit up from the inside, it's really dark at Schiphol at night what doesn't give a cosy feeling.
Kind Regards and thanks for now

Always thought PMDG was the best aircraft builder around, guess I'm wrong now!!!
What a detail !!! -
You know Mathijs, you could even post a picture of a real 320 cockpit, and we would believe you:P Just wanna say that it looks really fantastic, and and the end, everyone will be happy:D

The German controllers at Frankfurt Airport were often short-tempered. They not only expected you to know your parking location but how to get there without any assistance from them. So it was with some amusement that we (PanAm 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground and a British Airways 747 (radio call Speedbird 206) after landing.
Speedbird 206: "Good morning Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of the active."
Ground: "Guten morgan, taxi to your gate."
The British Airways 747 pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground, I'm looking up the gate location now."
Ground (with typical German impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you never flown to Frankfurt before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop."

@ Mathijs and the NLS team.
You guys should really start slowing down with all these new HIGH-END products like this A-300 (NLS), soon Amsterdam scenery and the A-380 (NLS) etc. My wallet can't cope with it
They are right, the Christmas period always is more expensive than planned! -
There is no practical need for it. As you said, the landing-part is the most dangerous part of the flight, and so pilots need to rely in their instruments so they can get the aircraft safely on the ground. This is a great benefit economically but also concerning safety. Regarding the take-off... If visibility would be so bad, then all flights would be canceled anyway. Preferably a delay of a few hours, than pilots not seeing the end of the runway and not being able to ainticipate on their decision. 'Go' or 'NO go'

That's correct, the NGX has quite qlot of problems concerning the different platforms it is working on varying from performance issues to some minor aircraft system issues. But all for all a definitely worthwile aircraft.
