    Ok!! Great organization. That's very impressive what you did and keep on doing for this project. I havn't tried any connexion yesterday, because I had a big work cleaning and re-installing my xubuntu... I did a system upgrade (a thing I usually avoid), and it messed up everything on my computer. But it's ok now so I'll be able to crash on the ground with my plane, and I'll try to find a cheap second-hand joystick soon. B

    Ok thanks. I tried and you're right, it's tricky to use it, and even trickier to get back to the initial rudder position. I have set a name on my communityhandle: that's FROG ;) You'll recognise me easily if I connect. (but you recognised me easily the first time, even without name). I have seen that you set a scheduled meeting time in the week, but for me in France it's deep in the night so you won't see a Frog in the air at this time!!! But anyway I am not learning fast, I couldn't destroy the...

    I found another question: how do we control the rudder through mouse and keyboard? I couldn't find it in the documentation. (not the good place to ask this question I presume....) B.

    Thanks for the compliment about my written English. I really appreciate. I am a real French guy ;) but I spent a period in Tennessee as a student long ago, and since I really like foreign languages, I still read, write and sometimes speak English if I find a victim here (and the same for Spanish when I can). b

    Ok, rating is done! Concerning Mumble, I have seen this voice app in the game, but I am a bit reluctant to use it for different reasons: firstly I don't like phones and web-conferences except for professional purposes (I even don't have any mobile...), and secondly although I undestand and speak quite well English, it is not my mother tongue and through phones and computers it is always harder to interact. To be completely frank, playing video games is not a big occupation for me... sometimes, 15...

    Ok Bob, it sounds perfect this way! I don't know if I may succeed in flying on-line, since I am an occasional and poor player, but I'll do my best since the game is fun and beautifully done. I may even find a cheap joystick in the second-hand non profit shop at the nearby town...

    The switching keyboard solution works! In the terminal, I have to switch to american keyboard: setxkbmap us Then I launch LAC: ./Lac895-x86_64.AppImage And then in a flight I can increase or decrease my throttle, using "^" and "$" keys (which are the square brackets places in qwerty). For an easier playing, I customized the keys for the other actions, so that they mean something on my own keyboard. For instance the map viaw was set with "," key, and I put it back to "M", etc. Of course I cannot use...
