C I like glass and all the modern gizmos but I am really looking forward to the DC-6. It will be a challenge for sure. It's going to be a lot of fun learning it. Shame that I won't be able to fly some Pan-Am flights into Templehof. We can't completely go back in time.

May 26, 20215 yr Yes, these video tutorials are impressive, very professional, a pleasure to watch. They are an order of magnitude more convincing that the hyperbolic verbiage for 12-year old kiddos of Jörg Neuman & Co. The last I watched was the supercharger one which puts in perspective the absence of the same on the Corsair for instance... Just sayin' The onslaught of dials on my computer worries me a bit though 😄.

You can try to turn back time with this mod: https://flightsim.to/file/6439/bushtrip-discover-berlin i have not tried it myself, but it was the only hit I got on MSFS and Tempelhof // 5800X3D // RTX 3090 // 64GB RAM // HP REVERB G2 //

Hmm.... 😉 Edited May 27, 20215 yr by Little Jenny
May 27, 20215 yr I can see a world tour coming up when the Dc 6 is available. It looks simply stunning. AMD Ryzen 7 5800x3d, MSI X570 Pro, 32 gb DDR4 3600 ram, Gigabyte 6800 16gb GPU, 1x 2tb Samsung NvMe , 1x 2tb Sabrent NvME, 1x Crucial 4tb Nvme M2 Drive
June 10, 20214 yr I was watching #18, The Straight In Landing, shot from the Left Hand Seat. I noticed what look like 2 white with red fleck bungee cords above the center of the dashboard. What are they for? T45
June 10, 20214 yr I think I don't need it released for P3D v5 anymore. This one in MSFS will do. 😄 Karl i9-9900K@5,0 | 32GB 3200 | 2080TI | 4K 55" | MSFS | P3D V5
