This is how Microsoft SHOULD have made the 2d cockpit. If a single person can make a 2d cockpit as brilliant as this, I'm sure a huge corporation like Microsoft could also have done it. It helps frame rates hugely, I bet a lot of people would start using 2d instead of VC if they were photorealistic such as these ones.
Great job edetroit, without doubt the best flight sim vids on youtube, imho.
Hello Edetroit. I love your videos, just a question ... How to get that movement in the cockpit, video edition effect or is actually integrated in the simulator?. If so, can you tell me what software do you use, its Active Camera?
I think it's nice how you use Old airliners. To be honest, I would fly them again if I had that cockpit panel you've got. Why don't you make some videos with the Airbus A320 :) Why not a British Airways A320 or Lufthansa A320?
Any chance you could re-up your great Aerosim L1011 repaints to the library. Seems they have been wiped out, or link me to an alternate sight that has them? I've had them before, but upgraded my system & thought well online was a good enough backup, DOH!........ thx
Whta do you think about Microsoft closing the line of flight simulators? I think it is typical of a company that doesn't care about its customers and the fact they are experiencing bad performance on its simulators. Ive got a 4gb ram quad core 2.4ghz processor and 1024 mb video card, but fs2004 runs with a stutter. Ive been playing fs since 98. Im an aeronautical engineering student and i love it realism but im fed up with the poor performance, even on a machine with great properties as above.
Hey Ed it's that guy from a year ago who made the tribute video to you, remeber the ryanair one? I have a new channel, can you check out my videos? Oh and I'm still your oldest fan haha Nice Work!
Another amazing video Ed. You probably would make an amazing pilot. I am having issues with VATSIM and no one can help me. Would you be willing to try?
Always when I stop my work to see your videos I know that this angles are the same that real videos that I see in youtube too. Congratulations for yours 2D panel manipulations too. In the past I used to lose more time to develop to flightsim community, but nowadays I'm concentrated on my private pilot course so I'm using flightsimulator just for training some procedures.
Think again. The 747-200 has more different cockpit configurations than any other aircraft on the planet. (One of reasons I love 2D panels is I can easily make the proper config for each and ever 742 I fly......don't know why but I love the differences). This particular 742 has the most modern type of FMC I have seen in a 742.
The video is nice, especially the takeoff and landing scenes. I heard that a new version of FS Recorder has been released which implements a new zooming mode. Is that FSR v2?
Looking forward to your first 727 video this year :)
great looking specs. have u tried running win7 32bit and fs2004?? i'm debating whether i should install fs2004 on w7 32bits or xp32bits. any advice ???
I used to use Thomas Kwong's freeware HKG which is very nice.....but I had Afcad problems so I bought the payware Imaginesim HKG from Simmarket and I do not regret it.
It is the payware HKG in this video and I like it.
Just to add as well - I'm sure the photos he uses for his panel are not his own so it would take a great deal of emailing a lot of people to get copyright issues sorted.
Hmm... it is not being selfish inmy opinion. As mentioned above, he takes all the photos for background images himself and uses a base panel (in this video it's the RFP original panel) he modifies. The problem and the reason for not releasing his panels to the community is that the panels aren't finished and also there are many built-in things from other developers which may have copyright issues. And finally, nobody has to share his work with the community, it's his way of being himself.
good landing

Hi Ed,
I have noticed in your DC ten vid, that the Sandel 3400 has a track indication with waypoints.
Is that your own custom modification?The realityxp version doesnt have it.
Also I want to ask you about the RMI of the Sandel. How can I change the frequency of it? Or does it tune every station automatically?
Does any 747 classic have the Sandel inside? I want to make a new video with corrected GPWS callouts and female TCAS in the Lee Harington gauge.
Hope you can answer me
Thanks
