EHM-1627 Chris:
i have had a look in the manual and a quick look on the forum, but i appoligise if this question has been answered somewhere but.

Do you need to actully fly the flights at the correct time??

most of the flights seem to be during the day, and i'm not able to fly all that much then.

thanks in advance for any assistance

EHM-1617 Iain:
Flight times are cosmetic only. You can fly any flight at any time. Set the time in FS to the time of the flight to simulate the light or dark of the actual time, but you can fly at any time.

If you use IVAO, then GMT times for EDT must be used - but this is not to stop you setting the time in FS to something different... and if you are simulating night in the middle of the day then put it in the remarks so the controller wont give you a VFR descent ;)

Hi,

If you use the latest flight logger version it have a feature that will place your aircraft on the gate and set the day time automatically.

Basically you double click the timetable line it will appear all the gates for that airport, and if you double click again the gate, the flight logger places the airplane automatically on that gate with the given flight daytime.

The only conditions that you need to have is to have the flight simulator 2004 loaded, and have pressed the "read airports".

Basically when you install a new flight logger version, you always click the "Read Airports" for him to read the airports. You don't need to click it everytime you activate the Flight Logger because it stores that information internally.

Regards,

to use that feature do we load the flight plan first and then double click on the gate? will that mess up the flight plan that's been loaded?

EHM-0948 Bruno:
First you load the flight plan, then you double click the line.

Basically when you double click the line you are also choosing that flight plan.
