"OK, got it d/l'ed and test flown. Flew great 'round the pattern. But they had to disable the (Livery)download section because of the demand for the main product. So I don't have the Polar and Atlas colors yet. Dang it!!! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img] Will do a longer test hop tonight and try out all the bells and whistles. And all the europeans will be in bed so I can d/l the colors!!! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]"

"Luc, This directly from their website: Requirements: PIV 1.4GHz, 512MB RAM, 32MB Graphics Card | For best performance: PIV 3.0GHz, 1GB RAM I'm running 1.47GHz and 512MB and it seems to run fine."

"Watch out Ed, PDMG is working fine on a P4 1.4 with 512 memory but if you have a system around that watch out for Ultimate Terrain at night. You will have to disable some functions. It is really nice but it is a hog on the memory. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif[/img]"

[right][snapback]7733[/snapback][/right] </div> Barry, Actually yes and no. Although FSACARS is not aircraft specific, it does request which aircraft is beig flown during the initialization. The current database only reflects GCI/PAC's fleet of 742F's. That said, I'm going to try my hand at updating the GCI and PAC FSACARS fleet database to include their 744F's. I have a listing of PAC/GCI 744F's, but I think its incomplete. Anyone have an accurate listing?"
