    Hello all from Germany!

    ... hey folks --

    happy new year, and great to see that forum!

    I have been flying around with the FS2 (!) already in the 80s on Apple-Computers (IIe), now still enthusiastic with the FS9 and plenty of addons such as PMDG 738 etc.

    A few days ago I bought some new hardware for a better flying experience, and this is why and how I found you - I am completely lost

    Let me share my questions and experiences with you, hopefully I will be able to contribute as much as I will learn from all of you!

    Cheers from Germany

    Re: Hello all from Germany!

    @Andrew: thanks!! Frankly speaking, FS2 was great as far as the system was concerend; actually I remeber that I've learned all the procedural stuff (ILS, VOR, NDB-navigation) on that very simple system.

    And it was monocrome only !

    Thanks for ur warm welcome!!

    Hi wolfi!

    Nice to have another German captain on board this forum. What are your plans for cockpitbuilding? Did you decide on the a/c you would like to build already?
    Be sure, there´s a wealth of information on the various aspects of cockpitbuilding here from very many friendly people!

    Cheers
    Chris

    Re: Hello all from Germany!

    Chris -

    hello! Actually I am focussing on the 737NG as many others do, too. I am trying to fix my problems with the 3 monitors, and what I've learned today is that the VS works fine - only the 2D cuases further problems. So it might be a good solution to add a TrackIR5-System as per now.

    Next step should be the FMC and the MCP ...
