FAQs
How can I use my Flying Club aircraft in FSX with Service Pack 2 or Acceleration installed?
Please install the free upgrade for the Flying club software located below.
I am trying to install your software and my virus detection software has said there is a worm/Trojan/virus in the software. What should I do?
You can rest assured that there are NO viruses, worms, spyware or Trojans in any of our programs. However, some virus protection programs can sometimes identify the executable files in software installers as viruses. We recommend you install the latest virus definition update from your anti-virus provider. We always use industry standard installation and protection software - if you are worried about any aspect of our installation process, please feel free to contact our Support team

To bring your copy up to the latest specification simply download the appropriate file(s) for your aircraft from our Download Links page.
You do not need to re-download your product if you have purchased it after 21st December 2009. You will already have the latest version of the aircraft.
Save the file to a convenient location (we recommend using your desktop).
IMPORTANT –please ensure that you uninstall all previous versions of the Flying Club aircraft before proceeding to install the updated versions. To do this go to Start/Settings/Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs (Vista users – Start/Control Panel/Programs and Features) and uninstall the appropriate Flying Club aircraft. Please note – do not remove any entries called “Flying Club xxx (Shared Components)” as this contains your licence agreement. The entries you need to remove will begin “Just Flight Flying Club xxx”.
Once these steps have been completed, run the new download file you saved to your desktop and follow the on-screen instructions to install it. You shouldn’t need to unlock the program again, unless your PC is new or rebuilt since your last Flying Club installation. In this case simply use the latest set of unlock codes that were e-mailed to you after your last unlock.
If you have any problems unlocking or re-installing please contact our support team here.
