Wow, looks brilliant Tim. I was wondering what you have been up to with Plan-G since 0.91.

I hope you don't mind a question. Does the Aerodrome Chart and Approach information come directly from FS9/FSX or is it sourced from 3rd party data?

I believe the red feathers indicate a localiser (lateral guidance) only while the green feathers indicate a localiser and glide slope (lateral and vertical guidance).

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for looking into this Tim. If you need any more information or perhaps even some testing done please let me know.

Cheers,
Serge

G'day Tim,

I've been using Plan-G since the early beta releases (I run Plan-G on a Laptop connecting to FSX via my local network using simconnect) and have been very pleased with the software however I have noticed a definite performance drop with versions 0.9.0 and 0.9.1. The software has become very "laggy" and I also experience constant "software not responding" issues where I am forced to shut down Plan-G and restart it.

Due to the above issues I have now reverted back to using version 0.8.1. I have no lag issues with this version and I never have the problem of the software not responding. I do miss the new features you introduced with versions 0.9.x though.

I'm not sure if anything can be done about this but I thought I should bring these issues I am having to your attention.

Regards,
Serge

I would like to say thanks to the user manual team members for producing such a professional document, particularly as this is for a freeware add-on. At 68+ pages it is a great effort. In my opinion it is of a higher quality than many of the manuals out there for payware add-ons and other professional software.

Well done.

Cheers,
Serge

Thanks for looking Tim.

If you don't want to install VAT-Spy, let me know and I'll take some screen shots for you.

Cheers,
Serge

G'day Tim,

Would it be possible to incorporate the ability to add map bookmarks which would then be accessible from a drop down list (or similar) for quick access? If you want an example of what I refer to have a look at VAT-Spy which has this feature. It would be handy to be able to bookmark (or save) a number of views and then be able to return to them quickly at a later time or even another session.

Just an idea.  ;)

Cheers,
Serge

Brilliant Tim.

Thank you very much for these and also for the excellent update to Plan-G.

Cheers,
Serge

Cheers Tim.

I'll wait for beta3 and install it when it's available. I will report back then.

Serge

Thanks for responding Tim.

It makes no difference whether I start REX first or Plan-G first. Also, it occurs regardless of the page that is displayed in the REX GUI. It also doesn't matter whether Plan-G is connected to FSX or not.

With REX running I can not use the right-click menu to add an airport to a flight plan in Plan-G. What I have noticed however is that I can right-click anywhere else and get the option to add a user way-point, add display rings or hide display rings however whenever I move the cursor over an airport or nav aid icon no tooltip displays and if I right-click there are no options displayed. If I shut down REX the right-click option to add an airport will display immediately (I don't even need to restart Plan-G).

Not sure what else to look at.

Regards,
Serge

G'day Tim,

I currently run Plan-G on a laptop and connect to FSX (installed on my desktop) via my network and it works great. I have now also installed REX on the laptop and also connect it to FSX via my network. This also works great.

One thing I have noticed however is that when I have the REX GUI open I lose the functionality of the right-click menu in Plan-G (eg. I can't add an airport to my flight plan). As soon as I close REX the right-click functionality returns to normal and I can add an airport.

I'm not sure if this is a REX issue or a Plan-G issue. I thought I would post here first to see what your response is before I try the REX forum.

Does anyone else have REX installed where they can test this please?

Thanks for this great software.

Cheers,
Serge
