Hey Jordan.
How could you tell if ACCUFEEL was on via JAWS?
How were you able to find everything via JAWS?
Did you tweak any of the volume setting via JAWS?
Curious minds would like to know so that they can start using this great
program.
The last time I used it I would get close to the arrival airport but then
start to pull away from the airport and I couldn't land or get credit for
the flight.
Since uninstalling ACCUFEEL, I just flew my 76th flight last night.
So please share your ACCUFEEL knowledge.
Thanks.

I am, and I had a few issues at first, don't remember what they were, but
things work fine now.

Hello Jason and Ron and all others,
Nice to see that the list is being used!
I have not been flying so much recently due to time and a few computer
issues. But hopefully I will do some more after i hve upgraded to windows 8.
Is anyone running FSX under Windows 8?
Many thanks,
Christian and happy flying fellow captains!

Hi,
Ok, just finished a flight from Toronto to Montreal in a crj700 with
accufeel running. Everything was fine. Before that, I did try a flight in
a king air 350 and fsx crashed just after takeoff. Not sure what caused
that. So looks like accufeel can work. Has anyone else tried this? Is
anyone else besides Ron and I on this list?

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."
