The download that helps this problem that is on the website is does not work either. I am telling you now. Save your money for something else. The support team for this product does not help either. Do not buy this product. It does not install correctly and will not work.
It will not install properly if FSX is not in the default install location. The one reference I could find referred to to manuals/documentation that were not on the disc nor were they installed. Unfortunately the install was a pain.
Their documentation is lacking. Also the FSX graphics at orbit were disappointing to me as well though that is no fault of this addon.If you really want to fly the Shuttle X-Plane is a much better choice and costs the same for a whole simulator. Although they provide a 1000+ page Shuttle Manual there is nothing for the sim addon itself.
This sim has some great virtual cockpits. In the reentry mission you get to simply sit there and watch until atmospheric flight is possible. Even better is the Orbiter Sim which was written by a PhD, has a large community, and is free.I don't recommend this product.
After 2 emails with support I finally figured out the issue on my own. Even though it appears to find and install to the correct location it will not install one of the.dll's.As for the flight characteristics- I am disappointed.
I will no longer trust anything from "Just Flight" again. After installing this expansion not only did my computer crash(which is extremely rare with XP)but my desktop was damaged and now get an error message when I try to restore it. I tried re-installing the software with the same result.
