April 6, 20197 yr It was a pleasant afternoon short haul to deliver some cargo from Stansted up to Manchester..

April 6, 20197 yr Looks like both you and I were flying the MD-11 in the virtual sky...at the same time. BTW, I came very close to selecting FedEx too, but switched to Aeroflot Cargo in the last minute...glad I did...🙂... The FedEx skin fits well on the MD-11. Nice shots with good AI aircraft! The VC looks good too...and that purple texture under the "flap-lever" matches mine, initially I thought it was an artifact from my FSX-SE, but it seems MD intended it that way...

April 7, 20197 yr Super shots of the MD-11! Intel i-9 13900KF @ 6.0 Ghz, MSI RTX 4090 Suprim Liquid X 24GB, MSI MAG CORELIQUID C360, MSI Z790 A-PRO WIFI, MSI MPG A1000G 1000W, G.SKILL 48Gb@76000 MHz DDR5, MSI SPATIUM M480 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 2TB, Windows 11 Pro Ghost Spectre x64 “We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the day and night to visit violence on those who would do us harm”.
April 7, 20197 yr With two MD-11 posts in one day, I'm starting to get an MD-11 itch. Looks good I checked out the developer's website, but I was wondering, did SkySimulations model anything in the way of VNAV or FLC mode on the autopilot? Thanks for sharing!
April 7, 20197 yr Author I do not believe so, it is a "lite" sim with a version of Easy FMC within it. http://emarciano.free.fr/En/EasyFMC.htm It is a little overpriced, especially for what would be classed as a "lite" plane yes, but it gives me great visuals, nice flight dynamics and a great VC to fly it from together with a reasonable simulation of a cold & dark startup. It does have some quirks as discussed in other posts and I have yet to have a reply to the tickets I've raised.

It's still a very nice plane to look at, and I hope to see more posts here with it.
April 7, 20197 yr Author Check out my other posts where I raise some questions. Cheers!
