Hello everyone...

I really enjoy looking over all of the forum topics and alot of them have gave me lots of great ideas and tips for FS2002.  Thanks!

Ok, my questions are:

1.  I want to be able to fly online with others, where should I go and how do I get started?  (I know about MSN, but there has to be somewhere better out there, with more people), but it all seems too confusing

and

2.  What software (or Downloads) would I need to have in order to be able to really enjoy my online flying experience or to at least help me out in figuring out what the heck I should be doing?

ANY and ALL suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Oh yeah...I have done a few searches on Google for online flying, but it all seems so freaking complicated, so I figured that I would just go directly to the sorce and ask all of you what you prefer or would suggest for a "NewBie" who is tried of flying alone in the pattern!  Smiley

Thanks alot to all of you, and remember..

LOL, heard it before but still funny.

Anyway, to your questions...

I reckon the first thing you should do (if you haven't already done it) is to check out the 'Multiplayer made Simple' post in the Multiplayer forum.
http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=Multi;action=display;num=1...

If that is still confusing you, then you should try going to The Zone (sorry, I forget the address) and finding Flight Simulator and possibly reading the FAQ.

If, after all this, you are still confused...I recommend that you ask someone other than me.  Wink

Hope that all helps.

And remember..

I suggest you get FSHOstSpy from chocolatesofware.com. The first server I went on and still go to is Akroma. I love this server, the host has a dedicated computer for the TS and FS servers, and its up 24/7. IP is 66.105.121.185.
