March 26, 20215 yr Hi , I'm new (but i'm also an "old fart\grumpy middle-aged man" ) .... I don't write much, but I follow a lot , I've read around "avoid that place like there’s a red X on the front door!\toxicity blablabla" , but I'm not very receptive to this kind of advice and I enjoyed all the useful information I read here before signing up. I am not new to flight simulators (from flight simulator 2.0 to fs'98 and fsX until I got to prepar3dv4\5 and a little bit of x-plane11 without many addons) and i also have little real flight experiences, but nothing worth mentioning. I hope to be strongly criticized if I write nonsense and take this as an opportunity to improve my shortcomings in this virtual flying, hobby. I particularly love everything about airliners, but I'm pretty bad at flying them 😅 , I am also quite poor in trying to write in english but I hope that everything is understandable anyway. ....

The truth is, you'll find the odd annoying character in any group of people; if anyone doesn't think that's true, just get on a bus. 🤣 So there's no reason why Avsim would be immune to this principle. Fortunately, there are far many more nice people on Avsim who are knowledgeable and friendly, and you sound like the kind of person who is smart enough to work out that it's entirely possible to just ignore anyone which is not worth paying attention to - as you would if you were on that proverbial bus. So join in the fun with the far larger numbers of worthwhile people there are who frequent this place. Welcome to Avsim. 🙂 Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
March 26, 20215 yr Author Thanks for the welcome ! Sorry for the formatting errors and the bold I didn't do a very clean thing. And I won't be doing it right now on landing this 737 , but luckily you're not on this virtual flight 😃
