If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

ME?!
two issues:

firstly I don't run wine. I preffer Linux specific solutions.
secondly, I don't vatsim. I preffer FG multiplayer environment.

But for those interested in this topic, this information is very cool. :D

Should also note that you'll appear to other vatsim players as a 747...

File your flight plan through this and you should be fine.

And here I thought that there was no hope for the tours to expand (namely my pole to pole tour which ended after the first leg.) I can't wait to see you all on the VATSIM world!! Image

If you prefile the flightplan instead of filing it through squawkbox747, you will show up with the correct aircraft type.
