  1. My family lives in Indy. Good to see an excellent model of the new terminal in progress.
  2. Mavericks actually has increased memory usage improvements than the previous OS. The "7.99 GB" used, as ktomais mentioned, is not real. The "wired" memory is the real "active" one. OSX stores (and in some cases compresses) application data in case you accidentally close an app (e.g. accidentally close Chrome whilst reading a newspaper article); thus, the reboot time for the app is quicker than opening it straight from startup. There are some memory cleaning apps out there, but I'm not too keen on them as they have the potential to slow your system down and/or break processes. However, what they do well is indicate a better approximation of memory usage. The 15-19 fps is odd and has happened to me before. Generally, a system reboot fixes it.
  3. ADFs tune to NDBs, which are on whole number frequencies, so no.
  4. Looks like Ted's Hong Kong.
  5. Well I know the FF 757 has a deicing truck. I have yet to determine if its deployment affects the wings' icing. As for the actual spraying animation, I have yet to see that anywhere.
  6. Landing in Indianapolis Early start in Chicago There's a reason why the Sandia (Watermelon) Mountains in Albuquerque are named as such... The sloping Sandias Interesting exit from LaGuardia Required over-the-wing shot Landing in Chicago ... about 30 miles north of a potential tornado cell.
  7. No. X-Plane 10's Plane Maker doesn't read the older format in which XPJ's 777s are written. The 9.7 edition is a bridge of the old to the new.
  8. XSB + SMP weather works for me...
  9. Practice, practice, practice. To start with airliners, try learning with a smaller jet. There is a free Eclipse 550 on the .org that has excellent handling. Just do circuits with it. Aim for the numbers and smoothly flare. Learn how your aircraft responds to the slightest yoke/stick changes.
  10. That's the ramzzess 777 Worldliner
  11. Yeah, the Air Driven Generator (ADG) is only used in-air if both engines fail and you can't start the APU. It's used to provide power to the essential bus and the electrical hydraulics (3A and 3B) systems, so you can get on the ground safely.
  12. Yep that's the one. I don't really mind the glitches. What bothers me the most is that the roads are not right on the island. However, to check its conversion, I moved the camera to my former apartment's window is, and the view was very close to reality.
  13. Well you did give us the tools to make it the best, John.
  14. Flying into the sunrise, Toronto Cloudy day in Halifax New York, NY: City of Dreams and 2AM Gyros (I miss it dearly ) Arriving into Washington National; sadly, not the River Visual Approach Two clueless individuals taking off with a strong tailwind on a short runway Expressway Visual Approach back into LaGuardia
