Hi, Robert.  Thanks much.  Will do.--Matt.

BTW Matthew...

I have attached 3 files:

C172SP-IFR-KSEA-KBLI-STARTUP.FLT
C172SP-IFR-KSEA-KBLI-STARTUP.WX
IFR Seattle-Tacoma Intl to Bellingham Intl.PLN

Place these files in the folder where you normally save your FSX flights... typically:

C:\Users\[YOURNAME]\Documents\Flight Simulator X - Steam Edition Files

Then, using the ALT plus F (as in flight), followed by L (as in load a flight), select the flight listed as:

C172SP-IFR-KSEA-KBLI-STARTUP

NOTE: Before pressing Fly Now or ENTER, press the TAB key twice to get to a an option box entitled:

Make this the default flight

Place a CHECK in this box with the SPACEBAR, then press the F key to Fly Now!

On subsequent startups, FSX will come up with the C172SP Skyhawk, sitting cold and dark at a parking area at the Seattle, WA (KSEA) airport, with an IFR flight to Bellingham, WA (KBLI) loaded and ready to go. You can then select a different flight from that point using the same procedures as described above.

I hope this helps.

    Hi,

    Rather than pressing ESC, try pressing ALT plus F (as in flight),
    then press L (as in load a flight), then selected a previously
    saved flight.

    CAUTION: DO NOT SELECT THE ENTRY ENTITLED:  Previous Flight

        I seem to have run into a problem.  When I open FSX, I get to
        this ultralight flight.  I hit Escape to end the flight, and
        then I get into the Learning Center.  I know the free flight
        and missions buttons are on the screen, but I can't seem to
        navigate to them.  Also, the alt-combo keys don't work.  How
        do I fix these things?  Thanks in advance.--Matthew Chao
