Some poeople, including me, would actually find it funny to fly around and see glitches. I remember doing that back in the beginning of fsx. Finding big holes in the earth etc, or some black tower going up to high heaven. 
😄

Sounds like you need a trip to MSFS Greenland.

At the moment the best use of sim is backcountry flying - slow and low!

This is a sightseeing sim! - Yes, but unfortunately it's supposed to be a flight sim, and that it's not quite so good at doing at the moment.

I do love low and slow, so happy with that aspect of the sim. IFR, I do try to avoid controlled airspace as much as posiable. I follow roads and rivers. So glad I finally found your interesting Youtube channel, I will add it to my aver growing list.

eager to reach Pompeii and Mount Vesuvio

The island of Montserrat in the Caribbean had a volcanic eruption in the 90's, destroying a town.  It has been called a modern day Vesuvius. It might be worth a visit.

I’m pretty sure he knows they don’t speak Australian in Africa, too...

I once spent almost an hour on a border post in Arabia to explain that my wife is from Austria and not from Australia. These misconceptions are more common than we may think.

Airport for private/executive aircraft.

You've obviously never spent much time in P3D or X-Plane, yeah it's funny about the blue skies, everytime I look out of my window I see the same old blue or Orange or Red (depending on the time of day) reality can be a B***H!

Well yes it's still better than P3D. In fact I switch off autogen in P3D. It is truly awful and kills FPS.

But I would like to see the building algorithm to include a degree of random colours.

Hopefully it will be tweaked with time.

Oh, and for anyone who really thinks that I think Venice is in Spain ......  Google "Humour" ... and 'Derek and Clive' .... the "I don't speak a word of Belgian' sketch....... You'll thank me 🥴 😂

...... and anyone who knows what I'm referring to, also knows I'm REALLY showing my age !

I think that FS2020, at this point in time, is a game rather than a sim. Hopefully it will become more serious.

Some of the planes don't even work correctly.

What I really don't like is the fact that it is limited to 60 fps. Does anyone know how to get past the 60 limit?

[HighBypass 2,339]

@McPlane would you even be able to notice if the sim went to 100 fps from 60? I would not have thought that 60 frames per second only is an issue..  Or even 40 fps

[Gabe777 132]

Exactly. Even if you are lucky enough to get over 60 ... Why ?

Lock it at 60 and keep some headroom ....and temps down.
