Hi Pete Thank you for getting back to me about this, and I apologise for not getting back to you sooner - I have not been well enough to use P3D. I have a question regarding your comment above; if there is an AI aircraft close to me while I'm being pushed back, it will likely to not delete the AI aircraft because of the angle? Thanks, Gaz

Interesting. I can see the button, but this is something that regularly stops working. I feel like I would have to regularly press it. Anyway, it's a good idea, and I'll give it a go to see if there is something regular.

Hi I'm having trouble crashing into AI traffic at airports. I've been given some advice about using the Traffic Zapper in FSUIPC, and there are times when it works, but then it stops, and it seems to loose its setting in FSUIPC. Its a great function when it does work, but fsuipc seems to forget the setting after using the 'del' button once or twice (not always the same amount of times). I have the setting here. Can you let me know if I've done something wrong? When it works, unfortunately not very often, it's brilliant. Thanks, Gaz

Hey - the E190 is there and I've manually loaded it into Prepar3d and it seems to be working great! I love it... Shame there's a long process to get the damn E170 started, but I'll give it a go. I really appreciate you getting back to me with this. Gaz

Brilliant, I really appreciate you getting back to me. Gaz

Thanks for getting back to me, Pete. The reason I bought this product is that I'm having trouble with the Alabeo DA42 aircraft. While flying other aircraft is fine, I feel like I'm in a roller coast with that, despite the fact that the weather is set to just Fair. I posted on another forum for some help, and one guy said: "I use FSUIPC to "curve" my control responses - if you are not using FSUIPC, I cannot recommend it highly enough". So I guess you have a fan there! 😉 Again, thanks for getting back to me, Gaz

Hi. I'm a new user for this product - it was recommended to me. The problem is there is a recommendation to disable the controllers in the prepar3d settings when fsuipc5 is installed. When I do that, my joystick completely stops working, and I can't find any documentation for fsuipc5 product at all. If I'm perfectly honest, I'm not sure what the product does, but I bought it because I was having trouble with an aircraft. Why does nothing work when I uncheck that box, and I have fsuipc5 installed? If really appreciate some help. Thanks, Gaz

Thanks! I'll give it a go. Gaz

Hi I've bought the E170 & E190 series as I understood that a BA livery was available. I do not mind paying for it. Does anyone know where to find this? I use Prepar3d. Thanks Gaz
