August 18, 20205 yr Howdy from Peters Creek, Alaska...just about three miles from PABV. I'm pushing 60, married to my hair dresser and power shopping partner and I'm a personal assistant to one cat. By day, I'm an Administrative Officer with the FAA and before this whole work-from-home thing started, my office was located at PANC, in the ATCT/TRACON (ANC/A11). Maybe "was" isn't the right word. My office is still there...I think...but I haven't seen it since the end of February. So for all I know, mom and dad may have rented my room out. My casual sim experience goes back to the mid-1990s but I haven't been all that active for a good while...just a session here and there. Then along came FS2020 and I got excited again. I installed it last night—after the slowest download since 14.4 KBps dial up!—but I haven't had a chance to get into for more than a peek with a joystick. Looking forward to connecting the flight controls and wringing them out. I can't wait to see my usual sim destinations in the new environment. I guess that'll do for now. I have some forum cruising to do.

August 18, 20205 yr Hi Brett! Welcome to AVSIM. Enjoy your stay. There's certainly a LOT of forum cruising to be done thanks to the new release! Perhaps go and wring out your controls then cruise the forum after you've had another flight - that might narrow down the forum cruise; you may have figured something out whilst enjoying the sim - a win-win situation!🍻 I really should practice more than what I preach and go fly... in FSX:SE (do what you can with what you have)....
