July 26, 20214 yr Almost all low and slow VFR. I am following GPS, but mostly in VFR conditions. Part of that is that it is summer here and the weather where I fly is usually pretty uneventful outside of some small pockets of thunderstorms. Honestly I doubt I've been over 10,000 feet much in the sim. ------------------------- Craig from KBUF
July 26, 20214 yr Both equally. Was a tubeliner simmer primarily before MSFS, but mainly because it wasn't enjoyable to fly VFR at all. This is the first sim where flying VFR looks and feels amazing and dare I say it, real. Now I have an Xbox on the way, I expect I'll fly VFR mostly while chilling out on the sofa, and will use the PC for the tubeliners where it's useful to also use things like Navigraph and VATSIM etc. Edited July 26, 20214 yr by Tom Wright Tom Wright, UK PPL(A) SEP + Night Rating + IMC/IR(R) Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 | AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D | 32GB DDR5 6000MHz RAM | 16GB RTX 4080 Super | 2x 2TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Sidestick + Quadrant | Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals | WinCTRL Airbus FCU + EFIS + MCDU

July 26, 20214 yr Technically, since it states primarily, it cannot be both. Personally, I use it for both, but primarily use it for VFR. I need some good IFR planes, to be honest... and the scenery just invites to VFR flying, IMO. 🙂 Best regards,--Anders Bermann-- ____________________Scandinavian VAPilot-ID: SAS2471

July 26, 20214 yr There needs to be another option in there. I plan on using it for plane spotting and making beautiful landing and takeoff cinematic videos. Especially looking forward to the improved AI Assist feature in SU5! Now just waiting for AIG OCI for the AI traffic.

July 26, 20214 yr I would have said both, but the circling around the final waypoint preceding an approach ticked me off so much I stopped doing IFR flights until that is fixed. So now it’s all VFR using the Skypark and having a blast.
July 26, 20214 yr Primarily VFR. The fact that I can fly VFR using VFR sectionals without a moving maps feature was groundbreaking for me. I do fly IFR with piston props and small jets. But not as much. I fly significantly more in MSFS than I did with previous sims because of the increased ability to fly VFR more realistically.

July 26, 20214 yr I selected VFR but it’s probably a 60/40 split in reality.

July 26, 20214 yr Both. If I flight plan it is usually IFR. But a lot of times I just pick an airport and take off VFR and decide when to land often in a field or river bank.
