I have just returned to Flight Sim after an absence of two years and have bought and downloaded the Steam edition of MS FSX.
The reason is an upcoming trip to Tokyo and I want to cover it in Flight Sim before we go in June. I am currently looking for a 777-300 ER in BA livery to match the plane we catch on 6th June. I am trying a preliminary trial with FSX 747 but can only get a screen in centre of my 19" laptop covering about a third of available screen. Any ideas? Very vaguely seem to remember had the same problem with FS2004 in 2004. Cannot remember how I got all the screen. Help! I need some body!. johnep

If its in windowed mode can you not just click maximise?
Doesnt Alt-Enter put you into windowed mode? |

Hurrah! So simple a fix. Alt + enter and up pops the usual maximise button. Many thanks.
Perhaps I should start at the beginning again. did not realise i had forgotten so much. johnep

Thanks, now to find a 777-300 so I can simulate our flight to Japan in June.
Found a Meljet but really no others. Surprised that JF do not offer a version.....or do they? johnep

PMDG do a 777-300ER, but it's an expansion for the 777-200LR so it would work out quite expensive - but no doubt of top notch quality.

Thanks. I have joined Capt Sim and purchased their 777 base pack and 300 extension. Just waiting for the down load or discs to arrive.
Found the site and order process confusing. johnep
