For those who use FOC2003, do you have the Polar/Atlas schedule in there? How do you set it up? Any info/files you can give me would be greatly appreciated. :D

Thanks Tomas

I had a quick look at them and without going into any great detail, it looks to me like FS Commander is the best. -- Again, It could be that it looks similar to FSNavigator, which I am so used to.

I have an LOA at the moment as I have installed FSX and want to try it out and become familiar with it before flying for the VA again. I will also be away for work a lot for a while.

I also still have that "Bandwidth exceeded" problem which appeared after I had the update on the computer a few months ago.

BTW I downloaded and installed the MD-11 for FSX from PMDG. Something went wrong as I have an aircraft without wings and a tail......Yuck. I have to get that fixed aswell.

Cheers

I used FSNavigator since FS98 so am used to it and FSC looks very much like it

Mike's Routeplanner (or is it Routefinder) sounds good too and I would like to have a look at FS Build, where can I find them before I make up my mind?

Tomas has given you the link John , but remember i use the payware version which gives me Nav Files for FMC, Squawkbox etc :lol:

Thanks Mike

I'll get the payware version soon. It looks the best all round.

What about FOC2003, is woth all the money? I guess I could always use less airacs and save on the 100 bucks a year. Do you download a program or just log on the internet?

Download links below, but it costs $$$ as well. I find it really really good, especially with the 747s. Eliminates the use of a fuel planner.
