August 29, 20205 yr I have owned every flight simulator since the first Sublogic on an Apple II. Never seen anything like this before with a default aircraft. KBOS to KPHL 8/28/2020 Live Weather. Bob Bob Prince

August 29, 20205 yr Author I'm sorry you missed my point. 🙂 I was well aware of the outside temp and altitude and flew into heavy icing on purpose to see how well the visuals and plane reacted. Again, I have never seen a default Flight Sim airplane ice up and require a pilot decision to descend. I am very impressed. Bob Bob Prince

Once winds aloft and the PFD reports the actual wind vector are fixed, winter time flying is going to be fun. Bob Bob Prince
