I held off on getting it because one-- I needed disk space, and two, I wasn't sure about taking time off from Prepar3D or Xplane11. It is a good sim, but it does not offer a lot of scenery coverage, but it covers California, Nevada and Arizona which is the area my family coveted and hunkered down in, lol. I've added some Swiss scenery to it (Pay Ware) and some scenery for Northern Washington, Freeware.... The aircraft are varied, I wish they would have ultralights, but the Helicopter is good and they do have a Bleriot, which is an ultralight in a way. Their gliders are good, that is how they started, and the execution of their atmospherics is wonderful. There are downsides, but it has caught my attention and I will use it from time to time just for good, tweak free, fluidity in the sky, which I feel it will do and the new Microsoft products will do with Vulkan technology. After all, the Vulcans from Star Trek have seen our first successful attempt at warp drive (hidden joke), its about what we can do with CGI, like the movie "Brainstorm" foretold..... John
August 8, 20196 yr John, Thanks mate, I actually have AFS2 as well but have only flown it once. I have to admit when I saw the Lear, I did suspect AFS2 mainly because there is not a Led Zeppelin (whole lotta love) given to the lear 45 onwards in any other sim. Thanks again and by the way those were great pics Regards Tony Tony Chilcott. My System. Motherboard. ASRock Taichi X570 CPU Ryzen 9 3900x (not yet overclocked).

My favorite rendition of Stairway to Heaven was from the album "The Song Remains the Same" (Robert Plant begins with "This is a song of hope..." I identified with that song in '77 when I went to Switzerland the first time, when I went up Mount Pilatus, which some say is where Pontius Pilate was buried, but I really think the mountain was named after Pilatus aircraft. Every time I fly I think of "Stairway to Heaven" because it took us humans so long to get off the ground, take that leap of imagination, and learn how to fly. Sully's Geese in "The Miracle on the Hudson" were sadly on a training flight when they flew into his Airbus.... But they did not suffer, because birds are like the Phoenix, they rise again, lol.... Tongue taken out of cheek now...
