SurClaro Flight Simulations Resources

Dear all,

Last week when I was surfing the net I found the best add-on (according to me & thousands of FS pilots) for FS2004 ... it is called FS Passengers..

This is the details of the add-on:

**FsPassengers 2004 is an add-on for Flight Simulator 2004 that will completely revolutionize the way you fly in Fs2004. Here are just some of the features of FsPassengers 2004:

-Add passengers to your flights! Finally, you're not alone in the sky.
-Passengers react to how you fly your plane. Hear them scream if you make drastic mistakes, and get their opinion of your flight in real time.
-Provide in-flight passenger services such as movies, music, and drinks.
-Make money for successful flights; be fined if you do something wrong.
-Manage an airline (make money, manage aircraft fleets, etc).
-Maintain your aircraft in good condition, otherwise you may experience unique and suprising failures.
-Create and maintain pilot careers.
-Keep detailed logs and statistics for every flight you make (great for virtual airlines).
-Fly through dangerous parts of the world, and risk the safety of your plane, crew, or passengers!
-Export your flight to your Virtual Airline.

This add-on includes more than 200 in-flight sounds to immerse you in the ambiance of flight. Hear feedback from your co-pilot, flight attendants, passengers; listen to ATC chatter, music, GPWS, and more.
All screens and reports work in full screen. No need to quit FS.

I loved this add-on , & ofcourse I want to share it with you guys, but if its some where in the forum then I apologize...

Keep Flying Very Happy

Please could you tell me if it is worth paying roughly £30 ($50) for, because I can't download the file.

Thanks

Millerpede,
I personally love the program and never fly without it. It is customizable, so everyone can make the program run the way they want it. But this is personal, and not all people like the program. It matters what you like. Look at their website and see if you like what they promote.

Hi,

I must tell you that FS Passenger really rocks. It gives you a mature feature for the plane and simulates real life situations. now you dont just fly the plane, but you fly it with a mission thats being tracked. Every action is being tracked, You cant bank too hard, cant pitch, cant do a hard landing, you have a company to grow with, your planes make profit.

Its a lot of things, you got to see it. I however cannot afford to buy it online, because I dont realy want to go further on it. I am happy with the take offs from KSFO itself, thats not a problem. I can cheat and take longer trips, because when fuel is over, i get auto-refill option coming up which gives me ranges like 9 hours of flight between KSFO and london etc.

I have already climbed levels and in around 2 weeks of installation I am already a First officer with 61 hours of flying now!!!

I also found an useful Tool (Freeware) called TOPCAT - Take-off and Landing Performance Calculation Tool.

http://topcat.ofplan.net

At the moment, there are these Aircrafts supported (others will follow soon, for example A320-200):

- Boeing 747-400 / Freighter
- Boeing 767-300 / Freighter

and there are many other features:

â€¢ Worldwide database with close to 10.000 airports and 28.000 runways
â€¢ Including an import function for PMDG 747-400 and PMDG 747-400F weight data
â€¢ Coming with a Load Manager, Take-Off and Landing Planner (Taking into account various parameters like runway length, runway slope, wind, temperature, runway condition, airport pressure and elevation, etc...) and with an option to directly download weather data from online sources (NOAA, IVAO or VATSIM)
â€¢ Calculates all relevant speeds (V1, VR, V2) for Take-Off and Landing and de-rated thrust including Field Limit Weight, Climb Limit Weight, Obstacle Limit Weight, Brake Energy Limit Weight and Tire Speed Limit Weight
â€¢ Take-off and Landing data for abnormal configurations (e.g. Flapless Landing, Inoperative Reversers, etc...)
â€¢ A wide variety of units: kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), meter (m), feet (ft), hPa (hecto pascal), inHg (Inches of mercury) for your personal needs
â€¢ ACARS-communication function

I get the feeling he was being extremely sarcastic. If so, maybe someone can recommend the better/best nighttime freeware textures. There are a lot of nighttime texture sets as freeware add-ons to test and compare for FS9.

I downloaded this software about a week ago and took a brief look at it. Please keep in mind that this software recaps some very technical stuff. Last week, during my Ground School, we had to take a quiz on Aircraft Performance which included Weight and Balance, Density Altitude and several other related performance topics. The class is attended by Civil Air Patrol Members. Most of the Cadets walked out of the quiz early because the quiz was too difficult for them. I was the next to last one to finish the quiz (not because I am stupid but because the quiz was very technical and required a lot of calculations).

Note: There will be several questions of the FAA Private Pilots Examination pertaining to these subjects. Cool
