OzFlyer Posted April 23, 2018 Report Posted April 23, 2018 Hi There, Some of our pilots are starting to want to use X-plane, When I went to do some testing I found I could not select an aircraft type. In kACARS for FSX there is a dropdown list for aircraft type to fly. Can some tell me how to select an aircraft in Xacars ver 2.5.6 (http://www.xacars.net/)? Or is there a better program to use? Thank you I await your reply David. Quote
Administrators ProAvia Posted April 24, 2018 Administrators Report Posted April 24, 2018 You can use kACARS with X-Plane on a PC. X-Plane pilots will also need XPUIPC installed in XP. This works for XP10 and XP11. Pilots on a MAC will need to use XACARS. Quote
OzFlyer Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Hi ProAvia, As far as I know only kACARS II supports X-Plane our VA is still only running kACARS Classic. David. Edited April 24, 2018 by OzFlyer Quote
Administrators ProAvia Posted April 24, 2018 Administrators Report Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) We have had one pilot using XP since late 2014 - using kACARS_Free. Have one of your XP pilots try it out. As long as they have XPUIPC installed correctly, it should communicate with kACARS_Free. Edited April 24, 2018 by ProAvia Quote
