Given the way 2020 has been going... has anyone checked to make sure that airport hasn't been sucked into a void?  😄

MSFS salute to the movie The Philadelphia Experiment. I think that I'm going to fly around looking for the USS Eldridge.

This isn't a call out.. 

Agreed. The thread title is far more of an attack on the article creator than the article is on MSFS. it was quite amusingly written.

 

What is worth attacking - or calling out - is the news media's lazy approach to reporting news (of any substance) by trawling social media rather than, I don't know, actually searching for and researching stories. That applies to news outlets of all persuasions and all countries, just to be clear.

 

But back to the article at hand, it's a light-hearted bit of fluff, of no consequence. Can't see it particularly hurting MSFS, particularly as it's 'hidden' in the travel section.

Told ya not to go political.  It has nothing to do with the news agency that brings out the article!
