Here's a question I hope can be answered ... Please can anyone advise me how to get those great Google Earth cockpit views .. This is what I do . Firstly I right click on the aircraft return , tick the flight deck shot box , go to Start and find Planeplotter , click onto Google Earth Cockpit . I then get the Google Earth page up but thats when the problem starts . I get a messge that says something like " fetch at network pp2 failed " and then the option to ignore etc . Am I doing something wrong or do I need to change my approach ?? ...

Just have planeplotter open. Don't have google earth open.

All I do is right click an aircraft, tick the box that says "flight deck view" then hit ok. Google Earth opens automatically.

That message " fetch at network pp2 failed " I find only comes up if planeplotter isn't running, so make sure you have started it by clicking the green button.

Try this. Open planeplotter, don't click the green button. Go to options --> I/O settings and make sure Google Earth server is ticked
