PFE will now be running, in much the same way as a ProFlight 2000
Adventure. However, PFE is written using both Visual Basic 6 and
VB.NET functionality so performance is much more fluid, stable and
responsive.
If you haven‘t already done so you should now start FS. Personally I
find it useful to load the flight plan used to create our selected ADV
Flight File into the FS flight planner... confirming Yes to the prompt
about moving to the departure airport. This allows me to use the FS
GPS to ensure I keep to the correct flight plan route expected by PFE.
Once you‘re ready to go you need to Connect PFE to FS, which you
can do using one of two methods. The first, and probably easiest me-
thod is to open the Addon menu in FS and select START PFE. You may
also use the Connect to FS button from PFE‘s main menu display.
You will see a message in the FS message window to indicate PFE is
now active and all you need to do now is use the appropriate PFE
hotkeys to contact Clearance Delivery... just as you did with ProFlight
2000.
The rest, as they say, should be history...
A Note about the FS Message Window
To get the best possible message display from PFE we recommend you
setup the message window as follows:-
From the Addons menu select FSUIPC and on the main display
page......
Select ‚FSUIPC Multiline Display Window‘.
Deselect ‚Hide all Single line messages‘.
I also select the Misc options tab and then select ‚Scrolling
message to be in white‘ (but that‘s my own preference).
