Strange thing happen on the way to fly...
When I go to fly, any aircraft or airport, I get the plan I picked but it starts with me airborne flying over some island? I don't know what happen, maybe I downloaded something that changed the default flight or something? Does anyone know where I can look to be able to start a flight on the ground at the airport I chose?
Thanks

That'll happen if you choose a water runway or have an aircraft that has floats.
Set your airport in the menu for KSEA and the DC-3 and see what happens.

What ever is was, it's stopped? It didn't matter what aircraft or runway I would set, I was still airborne. Now, it workes great? FSX has Ghosts 🙂
