June 30, 20214 yr I'm really enjoying the DC-6. The graphics and immersion are top notch. I usually take off and fly to cruise and then let the Co-pilot take over until landing.
June 30, 20214 yr I love the "unplugged" feeling of the aircraft. I love monitoring engine performance and not just engaging the A/P and then go to make a cup of coffee and return when it pauses at T/D. I like that I don't feel like I have unlimited power. Right now I am at 16.5K feet and in some rather rough weather. I am slowly climbing through it by the skin of my teeth more or less. Really hope I'll be able to climb above the clouds! I am quite heave loaded and will probably level out at 19k. The attention to detail. The immersion that comes with that. It as absolutely wonderful.

June 30, 20214 yr I like it for many reasons. It's a superior addon. I really enjoy navigating pre-GPS/INS. I switched the configuration to not have the GPS and I fly with VOR and NDB navaids. Constantly tuning Nav radios and adjusting course value. Pre-HSI, baby! It does have DME equipment, so not too primitive. Flying a old, classic aircraft is part of its appeal too. The sounds. The inability to get above some/most weather. Planning around limitations instead of blasting past them. Fearing the icing monster. All of it. This is reliving my freight dog life to a Tee; the happiest days of my life, really.

July 1, 20214 yr Why? Because it makes my man giblets tingly. How: long time FSE user so I’ve been flying on there a bit. I do a mix of FE assists.
