When I had ACCUFEEL installed I couldn't land.
I couldn't even get close to the arrival airport.
After unfortuanely uninstalling the accufeel program I not only could find
the airport I was looking to land at.
I was also able to run down through all of the taxi to the gate checklists
also with no problems.
Matter of fact.
The one flight was a IYP VA flight fl253 from Chicago to denver.
I got as far as being handed over to Denver's airspace then it was like my
radio died on me.
Both the ATC and Michele couldn't hear my instructions.
I was starting to think that my cordless headset was dieing on me.
So I unfortunely uninstalled ACCUFEEL and everything was right once again.
How did you get ACCUFEEL to show itself that it was turned on or turned off?
What is the differences via JAWS?
I think if we could get this program to work it will be another great tool
for hand to ear flying.

Hi,
What issues did you have with accufeel? I was able to bring up the
control panel with no trouble. Did it cause other issues with IYP other
than the control panel? I haven't tried a full flight yet.

Hi to my fellow BVI pilot friends.
I was working with the company a2a simulations, who are the company who
made the great program accufeel.
Well, I installed the program.
After a while of trial and error and some help from the owner of the
company, I was able to have the accufeel control pannel come up in the add
on section of fsx.
But it is still tricky to find what you want to tweak after you are in the
accufeel control pannel.
Well, after aabout a week of frustration I uninstalled everything having
to deal with the accufeel program.
I flew from KERI to CYHZ yesterday win my private citation x with no
problems.
This is a shame because the accufeel program is like what graphics are to
the sighted.
I like to call the blind person graphics.
If you would like to hear their presentation of the accufeel program.
Go out to their web page at
www.a2asimulations.com
I think the mp3 files are at the buttom of the main page.
Hope this helps everyone out and like our leader keeps telling us,
"Keep the blue side up."
