Fleet Links

Been a bit busy quite recently but I have had an idea to provide you with a list of links to make up your own complete freeware fleet. I'll be uploading one manufacturer a day starting tomorrow and will cover both FS9 and FSX though some FSX planes will require modification (see the tutorial in this blog for more details) to work in FSX.

Thanks and I hope this is of some help to you!

Power Saver Tip for Longer Flights

NOTE: This works on Windows XP, Vista and 7 with FSX. I would be very much obligied if someone could check if this works with FS9 for me.

So then, you want to fly all those long flights but don't have the time? You have been told to leave it on pause but don't want to pay huge electricity bills for your PC to run 100% power overnight. Well there may be a solution...
