AS2012 recommended settings for VFR

[Bina 59]

Hello there,

 

It's my first time with AS2012 although I have an experience with previous HIFI releases, quite recently - ASE. I fly mainly VFR and would like to request "AS2012 vets" to post here their recommended settings for AS2012 to use for VFR. Is it possible?

Bump... Anyone?

 

Here is the settings file I'm using currently. Is it suitable for VFR flights?

AS2012 default settings are fine. If you find something that doesn't seem right, you can change but especially for VFR it should be ok.
