As mentioned in earlier post that my response to download requests and comments would be slow in these few weeks due to the maintenance of my computer and the Chinese New Year. Actually, it’s also because of the coming of my first grandson. He was born two days ago. Still couldn’t accept the fact that I am a grandpa now even though I am very very happy seeing him joining the family.

In the last few weeks, I didn’t run flightsim nor visited this blog at all. I believe the situation will continue for another month or two before everything backs to normal again. So pardon me should you don’t get any of my feedback.

Happy flightsimming!

Hi Tom,
I’m very ashamed to admit that my FSX was just pausing after the serialfp2 installed the screens correctly in my gps5. It all works fine now.
I finished installing my triple monitor setup (+gps5) successfully and fixed all the saitek controls and panels to the advanced panel.
I herewith send you two pictures of my current setup.
BTW, i am in Hong Kong this week for a fair that’s being held at the Asia World Expo (next to the airport)!
Best regards and thanks again,
Laurent

Hi Laurent,
Glad to hear that you have your problem fixed. Don’t see your pictures in the comment section. If you are interested to post them in the Cockpit section, please resend to me via my email address.
Welcome to Hong Kong.

Congratulations, Tom!
I think you’re a great grandpa, letting the newborn fly your flight simulator.
(I think you’re right that in a month or two he’ll probably move on to “Call of Duty” or “Evolve” and you’ll be back in the pilot seat. Kids are really growing up fast these days!)

Congratulations Tom, a grandchild is a wonderful event. and don’;t forget as a grandpa you have every right to spoil the child, much to the annoyance of his parents…
Our granddaughter was 18 last week, so imagine how old that makes us feel.
Best regards
