February 16, 20179 yr Hi all! My name is Connor from the United States. I've owned MSFS for many years but just recently really started getting into flight simming as a legitimate hobby. I am not a real-world pilot and most likely never will be. I am a high school band director and private music instructor as my main trade. I've always been fascinated by both trains and airplanes. When I was a kid I built model railroads with my grandpa. Eventually I want to have the space to build my own layout, but until then flight simming is a venture that will actually fit in my apartment, haha. My main focus is simming realistic passenger airline operations. I recently bought the PMDG 737NGX package along with ProATC-X, GSX, and FS2Crew. I am currently in the process of getting set up to fly with Southwest Virtual Airlines, primarily flying out of my hometown of Denver. I've been happily married for a year and a half now and my lovely wife is supportive of my hobby (there's a lot worse things you could be doing, she tells me). Looking forward to being a part of the community!

February 16, 20179 yr Happy Flying! Welcome Connor! I see you have a PMDG product. Just a heads-up, if you ever wish to participate in the PMDG forum area of AVSIM you'll need to sign your full name in your posts. (An easy way of doing this is to edit your signature so that your name shows up automatically). Like most forums on the net, AVSIM (& PMDG) have their own set of rules if you want to join in.
