How do P3D simmers like to set up their flights? (Poll)

How I set up my P3D flights. 19 members have voted

  1. 1. 1. When I start my flight simming I tend to usually:

    • a. Select a saved flight first then fly.
      15%
    • b. Create a flight plan then fly.
      36%
    • c. Free Flight – I just select a few options and then go.
      47%
  2. 2. 2. If I create a flight plan I:

    • a. Mostly use a 3rd –party flight planner.
      63%
    • b. Use the default flight simulator flight planner.
      26%
    • c. Usually don’t create flight plans, I free fly.
      10%
  3. 3. 3. When I set up my flight I:

    • a. Want to set up and fly as quick as possible.
      31%
    • b. I like to take my time and set up a proper flight or review selections/options.
      57%
    • c. I prefer to just bypass the P3D setup screen and just get into the flight.
      10%
  4. 4. 4. When I setup my flight with 3rd party add-ons (weather generator, follow maps, scenery, etc.):

    • a. Usually like to have all this done before I am at my location to fly.
      63%
    • b. I usually prefer to set any 3rd party add-ons after the flight begins
      5%
    • c. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s before or after I begin a flight – whichever way the 3rd party program requires I’m fine with that.
      31%
    • I don’t use any 3rd party utilities to set up my flights.

Hey guys, I am asking fellow P3D simmers on how they like to set up their flights before you actually get into flying.  Don't over think these questions as I suppose you could answer saying yes to all of the choices.  Just go with what you usually tend to do. 

 

Much appreciated,
