May 15, 201214 yr Following the exploits of a fellow flyer who used the uncontrollable spin (left his machine on overnight) to gain some excessive altitude. As you can see, flights earth is definitely round, and could those be continents in the distance? The clouds still bite, though....... We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

May 15, 201214 yr Devon, what "exploit" exactly are you talking about? Do you mean he got this high by spinning and then starting to climb, like in that weird behaviour I reported in another thread telling I was mad at FLIGHT for that :-) ? I'm curious... Or did he use one of those tweaked situations that already put you at some extraordinary altitude?

May 15, 201214 yr Author No more :Cuppa: for you! :Nerd: Its apparently become a popular trick. People claim to be trying to see if they can reach the moon! :Hypnotized: :Hypnotized: :Hypnotized: Can you glide to another continent? Probably need a space shuttle. Planes act very whacky up there with no air, though the dive record is pretty easy to reach from that height! (good thing there is no damage modeling and plane break-up!) Interestingly enough, another trend as people try to amuse themselves waiting for worthy DLC is that people are spreading out far and wide from the islands, looking for obscure geographic locations. Its getting almost as common to see people out in the middle of the ocean as over Hawaii. One guy last night was earnestly searching for Midway. Good luck going over 1000nm when he was reporting 47% fuel remaining on his Zero. Did I mention multiplayer was interesting? We are all connected..... To each other, biologically......

May 15, 201214 yr Its apparently become a popular trick. People claim to be trying to see if they can reach the moon! :bad: C'mon guys, don't make me suffer.... You know I hate this flaws in a flightsim, and this together with my fickliness will get FLIGHT temporarily unisntalled again real soon.... :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
