Your best option (IMO) is the PA A320 and VASFMC Panel.

Just booked CPA250 LHR-HKG. One of my concerns is the gate issues. What is going to be done for those who use defult heathrow as compared to Aersoft Heathrow. There are bound to be some problems there. Also does anyone know if we will get assiagined gates or a briefing before we fly?

Heathrow has not changed much since that scenery came out, not much difference, just T5 is there and the taxiways around the terminals have changed.

Edit: I mean the defualt scenery layout..

Those times are Runway Times, as if you look at www.heathrowairport.com, all the times are 05, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 and 00 past each hour, not 38 or 28. So your push is likely to be about 15 minutes before that

Regards.

Edit: So your push time will likely be 13:30 (Gate Closing time) there is going to be delays so your not ever going to get that time accurate.

[Flying_Pie]

Has anyone here taken off or landed at EGLL? How are the servers, ATC and pilots?

I just finished my short London to Edinborough flight and i must say that the ATC was excellent! Even though i was delayed by 10mins or so, but they its Heathrow so it felt realistic! I did get cut off a few times at the gate when i was requesting push and start but appart from that, it was excellent! Next time i will do a longer flight as i couldnt do one today with Man Utd vs Chelsea on fairly soon When i first loaded the server, i was getting fairly low FPS but a few minutes in, i was getting well over 30FPS and regarding pilots, no problems there appart from one guy that kept trying to squeeze his 777 between such a small space.

Only got disconnected like 3 times! But that was only after I had landed, and so wasn't that bigger deal, but I think it was busier before I landed, so I don't know about that. I reckon the servers did well, I don't know what anyone else thinks?
