August 6, 20196 yr Justflight's Duchess is a great platform for flying up the Rhone Valley, towards the Matterhorn. The vistas in Aerofly's FS2's Swiss scenery, combined with the Orbx free autogen and Justflight's Duchess, are astounding.... Saw the Matterhorn in real life once, in 82, and was blessed enough to have clear weather both days I stayed at the renowned climber's base, the Hotel Seiler Monte Rosa. Funny hotel, my bathroom was almost as big as my bedroom and one could soak in the tub with the window open, looking up towards the Alps... John
August 6, 20196 yr Glad to see some pictures from AFS2! This AFS2 Swiss Scenery, here, does look very nice, and, of course, JF's Duchess is the perfect plane to enjoy it...!
August 9, 20196 yr Looking at all your recent AFS2 screenies, you posted here, John, I must admit that ASF2 is a definite temptation, although like you I also have already XP11 and P3D v4. But I think I first wait for some additional news from MSFS2020 (or whatever the new sim will be called at the end) Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080

But I think I first wait for some additional news from MSFS2020 (or whatever the new sim will be called at the end) I found AeroflyFS2 to be breathtakingly different from XP11 and P3DV4, a worthy companion. Worth getting even if you are waiting for Microsoft's release Its biggest strengths: *Good default aircraft, some good freeware, and the payware Justflight Duchess.... *Fantastic load times, never a crash, and the best fps and stutter free performance, and Vulkan support *The Swiss add-on scenery (payware), the best Swiss scenery and mesh, for any sim. *Huge coverage of the Southwest, my stomping grounds, including all of California, Nevada and Arizona *A nice, simple flight planner which can fly vectors into your destination airport of choice *A simple weather engine *Steam *Not a huge disk space hog Weaknesses *No nighttime lights, except with a few free add-ons *No rain *No way to save replays, and short replay time *No way to save default flights, or a flight in progress *Not many airports, or airport add-ons
August 9, 20196 yr Many thanks, John, for your interesting info. I think I'll give it a try 😊 Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
