Hi all,
Do any of you know if there is a way to change the default airport? I'm bored of having to change the time back to the real one, after FS2004 has convered it to another timezone. Smiley

I think you do a Save Flight before you start your departure roll and that will do it. I had it that way once, somehow screwed it up and have yet to change it back. I could be wrong in what I said. You could always try it...
 

My system: AMD Phenom 9500 cpu, 2 x eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked vidcards (640Mb DDR3 each), Zalman "sunflower" 9700 fan, Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 mobo, 4Gb G.Skill PC2-6400 DDR2 800Mhz RAM, 2 x Sony 20X DVD writers, Thermaltake Toughpower 850W modular p/s, 7 x 120mm fans, Windows XP Home and SP3, 2 x 250Gb Western Digital SATA-300 HDs (1 for apps, 1 for storage and precious files backup), CoolerMaster CM 690 case, NOD-32. Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too.

Pick the aircraft you want in the select menu.
Pick the airport you want in the select menu.
Go to settings and change the general time setting away from system time.
Click Fly Now.
Once the flight has loaded, set your zoom levels, whether you want to be in a cold start situation etc etc.
Save the flight, give it a name and check the make this flight default at the bottom of the page.
Exit the flight.
Click on select a flight.
Pick the flight you have just saved and check on the default flight tickbox.
Exit FS9.
Restart FS9 and you should find that the aircraft, airport and time settings are your new settings.
