Hi everyone!

Im new here but already have a load of Qs  Grin

I started fiddling arround with the FS and have made it to taking of with ALL the planes, landing even with the Airbus (just plain luck I guess because I caouldnt do it again) so I was wondering :

is there a tutorial DETAILED on flying Boeing/Airbus?? But I mean really detailed...

And also,..... I just cant figure our VOR navigation, I always use GPS.... HSI is also giving me trouble..

So please If you got any good links....

Thanx!

Hey M how are things in sunny Croatia? Just over the border in Hungary is lovely Wink
Right if you go to http://www.simviation.com/fsdhelp.htm you'll find several tutorials that will help. I haven't seen a definative one for Boeing/Airbus, but there is an introductory 737 one which will help quite a bit.
As for VOR try http://www.navfltsm.addr.com/ it has everything you could ever want to know about nav.

Have you been successful landing in smaller planes like the 172?  It definitely helps to start small and work your way up, although I'm guilty of jumping right into a 747 too.  lol I learned more by moving my way up one plane at a time though.

Hyperion, i feel the EXACT same way. I am currently on the Fokker-100 and CRJ, they can do 300 knots, ALMOST as fast as a heavy ( by 100 knots?) but very easy to control. Yep, im on my way!
