Disclaimer:

I use this panel frequently in my 1 GHz, 640 MB, GeForce MX 5600 128MB PC and find it to be very intuitive, stable, and frame-rate friendly. However, I assume no responsibity for lockups, crashes, or other computer anomalies or damage. Use at your own risk. Should there exist missing gauge or sound files as a result of my error, please do not hesitate to E-mail me with the problem - I'll do everything I can to remedy it. Enjoy!

Known Issues:

Occassionally, double-clicking on the RNWY INFO gauge to access the ILS database causes lock-ups on my system. Usually after extensive use of the new GPS in FS9. I have no idea why, nor do I have the slightest idea what to do about it, so please do not e-mail me to ask me how to fix this problem. I use Peter Dowson's freeware AutoSave program, available here:

It automatically saves your flight in 10-minute intervals so if you do crash, you can pretty much pick up where you left over, Consult his README file for further instructions.
