Hmm i still have to register when i click on "A340-600 Aircraft Download". :-\

I read in different reviews, of different aircrafts, that some testers claim, that the tested aircraft has bad/wrong/wierd flight dynamics. But how can that be? Isn't X-Plane calculation the whole airflow around the aircraft multiple times per second? If someone has enough data of the aircrafts' shape, then everything should be right. And with right engine data everything should be 99% to the real thing, shouldn't it? So how can a tester state, that things are wrong?

Practice landings ??? I know some people need to do this, but i can't even remember if i ever had a bad landing ever. I see guys crashing into the ground, when im ATC at VATSIM, but it is, and guess always will be, a mystery to me, how they archiev this.

In degrees celsius. But 100 fahrenheit are just 37°, way too cold for water to boil. 70°? Or F? Anything below 40°/104F i wouldn't call hot. Sure, you may sweat a bit but thats it. Nothing to complain about, imho.

I feel with you We haven't even been even near 35° / 95F here in germany. We had one really hot week, but that's already a few month ago. Since then either average 21-26° / 70-80F which is somehow ok, rainy days or cloudy days with 10-18° / 50-65F. And i guess, that's it with the summer. Time to call out autumn again.

Has there ever been anything that wasn't working after a new release? I had 10.2 - 10.5 until i switched to PC, and there have never been any issues with any game/software i had. Why should it be different now?

The problem you have is that you are NOT using ICAO codes, but IATA. IATA has 3 digits, and those are not used for flighplans. You have to use the 4 digit ICAO codes! John F. Kennedy International Airport is JFK as IATA, but KJFK as ICAO. Munich Franz Josef Strauß Airport is labeled as MUC as IATA but EDDM as ICAO. So you have to look up the right ICAO codes.

X-Plane doesn't care about overweight and so on. You can land with 250 Ktns and twice the weight of the max weight if you wish. There will never be a tyre blow because of that, or any damage to something else, as long as you don't hit the runway too hard. Either you crash, or you don't. That are the only options you have.

It's up "again" there with an offical announcement on the portal page.

Win7 Prof 64bit, no problem here.

What's the point with it not working?

As you said, it's fictional, but i would still like to see a "real" registration on it. Helicopters registered to germany are having a D-Hxxx registration. I don't think it looks so bad. Some sort of "show paint" ;D

Sorry if i'm OT, but as i own a RC heli myself i have it configured this way. Cyclic left Throttle/Pitch (depends on the heli i fly) + Rudder in the right I know someone, who uses Up/Down + Rudder left Pitch/Throttle + Roll right

As far as i know, XP9 uses a max of 2 cores. Haven't seen it use more. One for the flight dynamics, the second for scenery loads in the background. Thus overclocking gives you more, than having more cores. While i had 100% on both cores on the old sytem (C2D E8400@3.6GHz) i have now 100% on one, and 20% on the second core, while another two are idle (i5-2500k@4.0GHz). I had it on 4.5GHz for a while, but i didn't notice a difference. Except the CRJ

How can a QuadCore at 4.5GHz and a boost up to 4.8GHz on a single core be the bottleneck? I do not have the equipment here to get it to work on 5.6GHz Would need either watercooling or dry ice. But i'm pretty optimistic, that i can have a good amout of objects with XP10. The bigger problem is VRAM. 1280MB is just way not enough. Any game i have, can't even break the 800MB barrier on max, but XP9 uses everything even with compression, and planes like the Dash are unusable with HighRez textures. Next time i'll buy a card with 3GB VRAM or more, although they are slower than those with less VRAM.
