No worries, @Jeff Nielsen 🙂 My toes are pretty sturdy. 

Flight model fidelity and systems modeling. Those are the only two topics I'm interested in. Tree height, cloud details, water masks and even particle physics are way down in my priority list.

I think many of the hc simmers are with you on this. Are you able to make a question out of it?

That would require effort and I've expended it all debating tree height issues 

Several of the YT channels have said they have problems with the AP. It could be user error, but it would be nice to get a confirmation on this.

"Will all IFR capable airplanes be able to fully fly a IFR-filed flight plan on release day? If not - do you have a timeline for this?"

 

My #1 question would be:

When will water effects and physics modeling for amphibians be implemented?  It's a really basic and lacking implementation currently.

You don’t need the autopilot to fly IFR flight plans ;)) Be more direct about asking about the autopilot if that’s your intention. 

 

My question is: Are taxiway names and signs accurate to real life and the AFDs for each airport? If not, could that be introduced in the future? Or could a scenery gateway system be implemented that would allow us users to modify airport scenery files for inclusion in updates?

Regarding the addons you buy in the in-sim market: Will we be able to update them directly in the sim, or must we go to the 3pd to get them updated?

How will MSFS updates be handled in regards to not disrupting the addons too much (ie. addons stops working when MSFS updates the sim)?

Any progress updates on shared cockpit?

Now that's actually a really really really good question with a lot of moving parts....hehe.

The most important question of all, is of course, how soon until there's a DC-3 in the sim?

I did see this 

In the original screenshot, I don't see land at the horizon.  But I could be wrong.
The video link is in France, Bay of Biscay? Perhaps too sunny, and water would be cold.
IMO Some of best seafood in the world comes from there!

oh, no I didn't mean it was the same place as the screenshot. Yes, the video is France.

Sorry, my mistake!

Yeah but it’s that 0.000000001% that’ll get ya 🙂

It's Arcachon bay, which is on the coast west of the Bordeaux region of France. If you want to check it out, nearest big airport is either Toulouse to the East-Southeast where they assemble Airbus, or Bilbao to the South-West in the Basque region of Northern Spain, located at the end of the Pyrenees mountain range. Very picturesque area, but prone to Thunderstorms when you get out over the ocean in the Bay of Biscay.

Fun fact about that place: during the Napoleonic Wars between Britain and France (and Spain), there was a lot of Naval combat in that area, with Royal Navy Ships blockading French ports and lots of English privateers attacking French stuff. French ships were comparatively easy to identify at long range through a telescope, because being based in that area, they would often have particularly small jib sails, so that these could be used in the stormy weather which is frequent in the Bay of Biscay. This is where the English phrase: 'I don't like the cut of his jib' comes from.
