I dunno, the thing works great on my rig, which is nothing special. P4 3.0 with a gig of ram and a Radeon X300 128MB. With everything at Ultra, I'm actually getting better fps then with 04.

Hope that trend continues, although there's no question that a vid card upgrade will be required to run the real thing properly.

But like the new version or not, I'll undoubtably buy it the hour it's released, if past history is any indication! LOL

I just talked with the airport manager at CYPK where CVA is doing an FS/ATC demo on vatsim on Sunday.
He said that CYPK is featured in FSX. The MS guys came up and took a lot of pix's. Wouldn't it be great if we could sorta use this venue to launch FSX? Or a least show it off!
Any of my Airport Days team have any ideas? Craig;(help)
pull some strings!!!! Whatta we do?
I'm going to the opera tonite, but you can e-mail at djgold@telus.net

I'll ask around, but I doubt we'll be allowed to display FSX from an area that is not in the demo.

Not to mention, Squawkbox doesn't work with FSX yet.

I just flew the landing into St. Maartin and I must admit I'm not a fan of the panels, especially the 2d ones. Having the virtual cockpit bouncing around infront of my 2d view will drive me crazy. I hope they get rid of that in the gold release and go back to the old way.

Actually there is an extremely detailed scenery package available for CYPK in FS9 that shows the airport as it sits today. Unfortunately, it is a payware package, but I'll see if I can pull some strings and get a copy for the show. Don't count on it, but I'll try.

Brett, use the "A" key to get to your 2D panel, without the VC....
