Hi
Is there a way to start a flight with if10 other than the fly now button. I was always told that fsx should start with a simple default aircraft. So would using an advanced addon aircraft cause problems?
thx Lee

Ideal Flight starts the flight from a .FLT file which means no need for a stock plane to be loaded first.
Anyway, the only reason folk suggest a stock plane should be loaded first is simply because with other aircraft already loaded, there is a possibility of things not working with badly programmed planes.
I've got the complete PMDG series, Majestic, AXE, you name it, IF10 runs those reliably, and has been designed from the ground up to do that.

You can have FSX running before building and starting a flight in IF10, then IF10 finds FSX running and simply passes FSX the .FLT details. However, It is more reliable to let IF10 start FSX with the .FLT file.
