I'm sure this haas been brought up in here before but I can't find any posts on it -
Where can I find the Pilot's Handbook that FS2002 refers to that is supposed to have the flight charts used in the Comercial Pilot lessons? I looked in Articles/help and program directory files - I found all the manuals, books and charts except the "Pilot's Handbook".

It's a long time since I fired up FS2002. This might help.

Lessons briefings for the Flight Simulator 2002 Commercial and ATP lessons refer to the Flight Simulator 2000 Pilot's Handbook. You can find the equivalent information referenced in these briefings in the Flight Simulator 2002 Handbooks, which are found by clicking Library/Help on the main screen.
In the Lessons, turning autopilot off and then on again causes the aircraft to bank to the left.
The briefing for the Instruments Checkride says that you need the SEA VOR 16 L/R chart. That’s the wrong chart. The briefing should refer to SEA VOR 34 L/R.
All of the flight briefings refer to the fs2002\charts directory. If you have chosen Compact Install, however, the charts for Lessons and Flights will not be installed on your hard disk. Open charts.cab on Flight Simulator 2002 Disc 1 to access the charts.
In the Flights and Lessons, the sectional charts have been optimized for printing with small margins. You may have to adjust your printer's margins using the "Page Setup" dialog box to get these charts to print correctly. Also, some charts should be printed in landscape mode. See your printer's documentation for more information about margins.

Well, I'm pretty sure I located and printed out every single chart available from the program folders, and there are quite a few, but none of the ones needed for the commercial check ride are there. I looked through every handbook there is but no dice.
There are no charts for SPACE COAST REGIONAL in TITTUSVILLE FLA, or FLYING CLOUD in MINNEAPOLIS, MINN or LONG ISLAND MACARTHUR IN ISLIP, NY.

Did you look in charts.cab on CD-1? I would check for you but can't find my FS2002 CDs right now.

Yep - not there. Idid get the missing charts online from NACO but they're new charts and probably don't match the ones used by the programs. For instance, I downloaded a new 2008 chart for one of the Seattle airports and the approach instructions differ from the instructions on the chart that came with the program. We'll see. I'll give it a try and see what happens.

I tried the commercial checkride with the new charts that I got online and it looks like it will work - I failed my first few tries, of course, but that was only due to my lack of ability in stying within the tolerances.
