Gd Morning
Your Sim remains impressive !!
I used fs9 for years, no issue, never!
I switched to P3D a few years ago and still on V4.0. coupled with an avionics program. Happy camper since then. P3D is very close to FS10

General Discussion Board. / MCP for FS9
Last post by Mach7 - December 13, 2025, 05:35:56 PM
Hello All.

I am currently using a Virtual Avionics MCP for my BAe146 simpit, using a payware Quality wings platform with FS9.

Although this unit works "ok" it is not 100 percent compatible. That is to say a number of items do not function, for example the VS button does not light, you cannot select a Mach mode, therefore you are left in IAS 24/7, and when you press the HDG button, the heading always defaults to zero degrees.

I have dealt with customer support on these issues and they were terrific and freely admitted before I purchased that some of these items would react differently in the FS9 world.

I used to have the goflight pro MCP which worked perfectly, however the appearance did not give that airliner 'feel'.

I am not looking for options to maintain the "look" of the VA MCP with the added functionality of the Go flight.

Any considerations would be welcome.
something better like FSX or P3D. FS9 does me just fine and I have everything setup perfectly using this steam driven program.

I am considering the CH FLight MCP ..does anyone have experience using this with FS9?

Thanks!

FSC and Mr. Luciano Napolitano are real "jerks".... got their throttle a few years back, and new that I needed to work with a new sim, they´re asking for $600 USD for a driver and a obligation to buy their Sidestick... real jerks.

Hi Everyone,

New member here.  I'm a new CFI and am wondering if anyone has setup a connection from InstructorStation to a remote X-Plane across the Internet?  I was evaluating if this may be a good option to help instrument students before they arrive onsite for training flights. I could probably setup a VPN connection to the student's PC but I'm sure most will not like that level of access to their computer and I don't need that liability.  I would prefer to have a way to just connect InstructorStation.  Thoughts or recommendations?

Thanks,

Wayne

Scott! happy to see you flying the real deal! The sims are looking awesome as usual :) just need an airbus sim now and you'll be all set! lol. 

Happy to see some familiar names and faces here again!  Hope everyone is doing awesome.

As for me, still with United, Captain flying the Airbus models. 319,320, 321.  Only 12 years left and going fast! Sim wise.. been into VR and military sims.  Have a single seater that I'm about to add motion to that I'm excited about.  I'll post some pics when it's up.

Well wishes to all!

It links to a news article about some jackass named "Peter Gottlieb" claiming credit for Matt's amazing 747 flight simulator.

A PDF showcasing his project is linked in the article, so it's also possible that the "journalist" that wrote the article assumed that the PDF was created by the site owner...

Please feel free to throw rocks at that "supercarblondie" site...
