SYMPTOMS
========

When you attempt to search for a particular airport in the Go To Airport dialog
box in Microsoft Flight Simulator 98 or Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000, there
may be a limited number of airports, countries, regions, states or provinces, or
cities available.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior can occur if you use the Search Places option to search for an
airport, country, region, state/province, or city, and you do not click New
Search to clear the previous search results before you attempt a new search.

Flight Simulator does not reset the search results until you click New Search.

method for your version of Flight Simulator.
