I am new here and i just got this FSFlying School download and i need some real help,like how do you get the logbook to keep record of what you do and how you do during a flight .I hear it saying things and asking question's during the flight and i have no ideal how to answer it but when i go to the log book to see how i did there is nothing there and it said i have no flight recorded.So what am i doing wrong and what do i need to correct this problem.The version i have is 2008 and i am useing it with fs2004.

Hi:

Welcome to FSFS and thanks for your interest in our products.

First things first - if the instructor asks you questions - just try to think of the answer - there really is no way you can "tell him" where you'd land in emergency or what the safe altitude is while you have your hands full of yoke and other controls - the questions are there to make you think about these things...

Secondly - if you are not getting flights recorded in your log book it is almost certainly because as far as the instructor is concerned your flights are not actually ending at any point. 

The manual has full details on this, but until you hear the instructor say "OK - we're starting a new flight!" the current flight is not over.

By default (as it is shipped) FSFlyingSchool will end the current flight when you stop after a landing, but you can change this so that the flight ends when you put the parking brake on or when you do all that and also cut the engine and fuel. It is when folks change these settings that the mystery of "no log book entries" usually occurs.

Jut make sure that you are ending the flights the way the settings require and you should be fine.

You can check the settings at the Flight Plan screen in FSFS.

Please let us know how you get on.

Well i tired it today and i think it will work but i need to ask one more question and the is when it said that you have to stop and set the brake and shut down all engines, do you  have to do that in order or do you just have to make sure it is done.

You can do it in any order, but we recommend, stop, brake, cut fuel, engine off.

Remember -

You can check the settings at the Flight Plan screen in FSFS.
