Hi Paul, I Did a test flight in the Islander later and managed to do EGNS to
EGPI via wfr, cbl . Boy it was a hard flight, VFR to 3000/4000ft should have
been lower or not flown. Hit some up currents and some low clouds before Islay
and leaning was an up and down affair. Worn out needed some whisky to recover.

Was
around all yesterday expecting your call, I guess you were busy
elsewhere. I'll be around this afternoon but this evening I have to
accompany TJ to one of those infernal annual gatherings where you're
supposed to be enjoying yourself with people you would normally choose to
avoid socially. Bah humbug and all that. PM me with a
time you'll be around.
Paul

I tried the flt later on and still had a problem. A message
flashed up saying I needed to file a valid flt pln but I had sent a pln; but
I
also noticed that my call sign in the flt pln page was grey instead of black.
Sent of for the Guru Paul to see if he can sort me out. Have a good
R&R. Fred

Sorry about your crash problems.
I have one of my own.
Shortly after takeoff, I noticed that FSX seemed
to be sluggish, but not having used it very much this year I pressed
on.
After your second crash, it seemed to be even
more sluggish.
Around 10pm Plan-G said that I was 10 minutes
from Islay.
I landed at 10:55pm, 45 minutes
later.
Just as I landed, I suddenly twigged what was
going on, yes, you guessed it, the simulation rate was on
SLOWEST!!!!
Somehow at some point, I must have hit a key or
key combination that switched it down from normal.
Needless to say I will not be submitting a PIREP
for this.
In all my years of Fsimming, this had never
happened to me.
I think I will stick to X-Plane for now
on.
A much smoother and more realistic flight
sim.
I am now off for a weeks R&R.
