Thanks for signing up and hope they get flooded with real world pilot feedback on all the aircraft types.

My trust in MS/Asobo just gone up another notch.

Was flying earlier today .. hectic weather and the C208 behaved so well on the arrival and approach - after shutdown said to myself .. "dang this is so close to the real thing, it was worth waiting 25 years .. "

MSFS is a game, MS/Asobo are dumbing it down for the Xbox Consoles.

And the fishing expedition is for "experts".  Why not pilots with in-type experience?  That would by the way be verifiable.

How about some with experience with GPS avionics????????

I’m sure those could both be assigned to the umbrella ‘experts’.

FS98?  Sierra Pro Pilot?  25 years even predates Avsim.

Been a tremendous amount of development in the interim since then.  Many of those developments have been around for several years but not implemented in the newest product on the block.

I'm believer. I think they are actively trying to make the default planes/avionics flyable and accurate.

Maybe, we howling to the moon for months to show our frustration helped a bit ? Maybe  😇 ?

This has to be nothing but a good sign - hopefully this will include all default aircraft, inc prem deluxe planes.

When I hear Rob form PMDG praise the collaboration, I always get excited. It is all new, updating, changing. We didn't have any real changes since a very long time. This is a step, and all the steps go forward some way

Hey, I've got 30 years of experience in flying a Skylane out of Meigs and crashing it into the Hancock Building! 😋
