  1. I uninstalled and reinstalled Orbx Central (4.1.62) and all seems OK. So I don't know what was happening. All Good. I'll move on.
  2. I know these have been reported in the past and they have been false positives. But this one is different. It happened during an attempt to update. Virus detected by Avast! b251681f0049/2023-03-05T02:38:58.836Z I'm going to delete central and reinstall to see what happens.
  3. My two bobs worth, I moved from FSX, to FSX:SE, then to P3D v4 and yet again to Xplane 11. Spent a good sum on addons for each and was reluctant to move to MSFS but after looking at a few videos prior to it's release in 2020 I bit the bullet and achieved XP and moved to MSFS. For me it has been marvellous and whilst there has been many frustrations, I have never regretted it. Maybe it suits me more as I fly bush planes, GA and Bizjets. I don't have a need to post here but do keep up with what is happening. One big factor for me not using this forum much now is that Orbx have not moved to the Discord forums. That is where I spend my time now as I spend little time on a Windows format when I'm not simming. This makes Discord the ideal medium for me as I can browse wherever I am on either my iPhone or iPad. I would say I'm not alone here and perhaps this may be the biggest reason for falling numbers in this forum. Time will tell. Cheers Anton.
  4. While on the subject, it also works well with seaplanes and there is a great one of these done by bagolu. And to save you asking…..> https://flightsim.to/file/15805/cessna-172-amphibian. This is perfect for seeing all the great Orbx scenery. Lol
  5. Sure, I was a bit hesident about posting it as I had forgotten if it was still ok to post links. But here it is anyway….> https://flightsim.to/file/15033/toolbar-pushback
  6. Hi Colin, I wonder if you have seen the Toolbar Pushback mod. I is free and very cleaver and does offer some support for Ground services etc. Worth having a look at.
  7. As most of my flying now is with a Discord group doing MP in bush planes I wonder if Volanta tracks Multiplayer aircraft?
  8. I am waiting to buy some Orbx MSFS products but I would like an answer to this question first please.
  9. I have started using MSFS2020 via a $1 sub and wonder if I purchase Orbx products will they be still there if I purchase and install the Premium Deluxe version (and other addon’s for that matter)?
  10. More good work from orbx. I have a question Jarrad, I installed the airport updates before I saw the Central update, which I then ran. Would this still work ok?
  11. RIP Neil, you will be missed but your Airports will be enjoyed for years. Thank you!
  12. Hi Michal, yes - a distant one. 5 Generations ago in 1855 two Brothers left what was then Prussia, One my Great/Great Grandfather moved to Bendigo during the Victorian Gold rush. The other Brother moved to Christchurch in NZ. They came from the town of Sierakov. Cheers....

  14. My turn to introduce Myself Nic: antonvs (not hard to work out) Name: Anton von Sierakowski Yours truly viewing the beautiful Guy Fawkes River National Park and dreaming of what it would be like to fly the area (The heart of FTX AUGold). Location: Home is in Bendigo, Vic AU (YBDG) but have been on an extended tour of our great country for a year now, currently in Devonport, Tas I spent my working life in Industrial Electronics for Companies like Rank Xerox and BHP Billiton and later years were spent in IT, namely database maintenance. I have had a passion for aviation since childhood. I started PPL training at YMMB with Civic Flying School, but this was interrupted by a trip to Europe. Spent four years in the Air Training Cadets and later had the honour of teaching cadets in London (SW16) during a period I lived there in the seventies. At a camp at RAF Manston I was enthrawled by the aerobatic skills of an ex RAF spitfire pilot (Bill) flying in a DHC-1 Chipmunk. One other outstanding experiance I had was several days spent in a Cessna 172 in the company of a Mustering pilot in the Pilbara region on NW WA. He would fly for as many as six hours swooping tree tops and into gourges with only brief 20min rests after making spectacular bush landings on sandy tracks. At the end of every day spent with him, I swore I would never go up with him again, but by the next day I couldn't resist. At the time He had over 5,500 hours of mustering time logged. Truly amazing. FSim History: Lets just say since the wire frame days. Ones I can remember are Ver 1, 5, 98, 2000, 2002, FSX. For some reason I missed FS9, I was doing other things for a while. But made up for lost ground with X. Over the last year, while travelling with my partner we have travelled over 35,000Km and I have found FSX and FTX a fantastic means of seeking out new horizons before reaching an area and then reviewing the same area after we have visited it. It is for this reason that I am limited to a notebook and a wireless gateway and also the reason that I am now stuck for getting FTX PNW as my plan is only 5Gb per month and we are not still long enough to have a DVD posted. So you will only see screen shots from FTX AU for a while. Our "rig" in Northern NSW Inside our van showing the notebook setup with the Joystick on the ready. In addition to Australia, I also enjoy the European Alps aided by ...X. A favourite circuit here is an oliptical circle in the valleys from Sion to lake Geneva and back. As to aircraft viewing some of my screenshots will reveal some of my favorites GA: All Carenado, Epic LT and now Victory VLJ, Flight 1 Cessna Mustang, A2A Cub with accupak (what fun) and now my absolute favorite Flight1 PC-12. Truely amazing all rounder, fast, sleek, well equipped and just a great flyer. Heavies: PMDG MD-11 and JS41, Wilco 737 PIC still slowly learning correct IFR procedures and FMC usage. Rotary: Wilco Tilt Rotor and all time favourite rotary - R44 Raven II So here's to the future of Flight Simming!!! Cheers....
