| Will the fsc921 trial version work and how do you install and use it in FSX? |
Yes it will work, but you cannot save the Flight Plans. I'm not sure what other features are unavailable in the demo. I saw a post by someone who only used the demo version (for a very long time) and he was very happy with it. It doesn't work within FS. It is a separate program, but the database is gathered from FS9, FSX and/or P3D. Mine is set for both FSX and P3D (I have a shortcut to open it for whichever Flight Sim version I'm using at the time).
As I said before, I only use FSC9 (currently v9.2.2) to provide me with the info needed (jet airways with linking waypoints AND SID, STAR and TRANS) to enter in the route. So on long routes, I have a lot of jet airways and waypoints to enter, but it is definitely better than adding every single waypoint.

| How do you pull up the menus during flight? :-[ like the weight, map, how to get the ILS freq. numbers and such! |
I use FSX in Windowed mode, never Full Screen, so I just click on FSC9 in the Taskbar. The ILS frequency should be added automatically upon selecting an ILS runway in the ARR screen.
I have also added the default GPS 500 in the CS757! I removed the Simicon (SHIFT+2) for the iYOKE and replaced it with the default fs9gps!gps_500. Like this:
[Window01]
size_mm=48, 256
background_color=1,1,1
position=6
visible=1
zorder=99
ident=12101
gauge00=Captain_Sim.200!iAnim, 0, 0, 24, 32
gauge01=Captain_Sim.200!iCDU, 0, 32, 24, 32
gauge02=Captain_Sim.200!iEfis, 0, 64, 24, 32
gauge03=Captain_Sim.200!iRadio, 0, 96, 24, 32
gauge04=SimIcons1024!GPS Icon, 0, 128, 24, 32 //gauge04=Captain_Sim.200!iYoke, 0, 128, 24, 32
gauge05=Captain_Sim.200!iNote, 0, 160, 24, 32
gauge06=Captain_Sim.200!iExtPw, 0, 192, 24, 32
gauge07=Captain_Sim.200!iExit, 0, 224, 24, 32
gauge08=Captain_Sim.200!iOH, 24, 0, 24, 32
gauge09=Captain_Sim.200!iLight, 24, 32, 24, 32
gauge10=Captain_Sim.200!iAP, 24, 64, 24, 32
gauge11=Captain_Sim.200!iIRS, 24, 96, 24, 32
gauge12=Captain_Sim.200!iP, 24, 128, 24, 32
gauge13=Captain_Sim.200!iATC, 24, 160, 24, 32
gauge14=Captain_Sim.200!iExtBAir,24, 192, 24, 32
gauge15=Captain_Sim.200!iRDR, 24, 224, 24, 32
I then replaced the [Window37] completely with this:
[Window37]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=456,378
Position=7
visible=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
gauge00=fs9gps!gps_500, 0, 0, 456, 378
To open the GPS, I press SHIFT+2, then click on the GPS icon to open the GPS.
It looks like this. See the GPS Icon next to the P on the Simicon Panel (I forgot to highlight it before uploading the image :().
[edit]I forgot to include that I changed Window37=Yoke to Window37=GPS under [Window Titles]
Like this:
[Window Titles]
Window00=Main Panel
...
Window37=GPS
...
Window43=Pedestal Panel
Sorry :([/edit]
