"Hi Guys Right, I decide to check which version of fs9 I am using, find out it is fs9.0 , so I decide to install the update which I thought was already installed, because I have had it since it came out in 2004 but because I have had to re-formatt a few times since I must have forgotten to install it. So I install! no problems on the install,fire up fs9 which is now fs9.1, set up for a Flight from EHAM - KATL 2nd Leg of a two stage flight, Now when I go to the Airport, by Default my Engines are running and my first action is to shut down using the Fuel cut-off levers so I can start from Scratch ie, Dark & Cold! First time I do this , fs9 crashes and the subsequent two more times I attempt to stop the engines the same thing happens, <!--emo&-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> so , I uninstall the Update, everything is back to Normal, start again, no problems until take-off, have to abort at about 90 knts, ship is veering right, check my Fuel,I,m missing 80000 lbs again! <!--emo&-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> So I re-set the Flight, this places the Ship at the end of r/way 6 so as everthing appears normal once again, I decide to use R/Way 6 instead of going all the way back to R/way 27, something normally you wouldn,t do but I was fast running out of Patience Get upto Cruise , set the Mach and relax, couple of hours in,decide to have a look outside and the Texture has disappeared off the Aircraft, I,m flying a Grey Ghost! and it stays that way until I,m on the ground at Atlanta whose Runways didn,t appear until I was about 400 yds off the Threshold on a clear blue winters day! <!--emo&-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> Question is, has anyone installed the fs9 Update? and have they had any problems? if so what did they do to resolve them? Glad I,ve got that off my chest! <!--emo&:wacko:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> Safe Landings, Mike <!--emo&:D-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> "
