MSFS Astounds

My first real flight after the recent update across SouthWest America with everything 'On'.  Pretty good fun for an old fogey like me.  

Thanks

Hmm, I wonder if that will happen to the Twotter? ☺️

Would be nice. To be fair, they have made some progress updating her. I do enjoy the Twotter very much, so any improvements will make me happy.

I have to agree .. MSFS is at the moment just "humming along".. Great stuff..Particularly when my system is almost classed as "potato"..Fingers crossed this continues.

I too am finding myself astounded. I'm retracing the route of the 1934 MacRobertson air race at the moment, and I don't think I've had this much fun in a flight sim for years.

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

I'm hoping for a mod that recreates the US Airmail beacon system.   If I wasn't old and stupid, I'd try and learn 3d modelling and scenery creation.

I think it would be such an awesome mod.   PipsPriller located some of the beacons in the photogrammetry as well as some of the alternate fields.

It's nice to occasionally see people happy with their hobby. The ammount of hate is really depressing sometimes.

Agreed. I think too many peeps forget this is a sim, and it is our fun hobby. There are really good things with all sims since the beginning of FS1 and it has only gotten better. Sure, there are stumbles here and there, but overall, look how great our sims look now compared to 10 years ago. It's just awesome! I remember back in the days when all I wanted was a nice, smooth sim. Well, we are here and it is great!

Certainly! I have loved this hobby for quite a long time and even more so now with this sim. Love that cool approach in a new plane with everything looking solid. Did not feel this way yesterday as I was having lagging and stuttering issues. Now all is well.

I still fly XP11 but everytime I do I end up coming back to this sim....

Yes - I agree.   Spent a few hours yesterday evening flying the CRJ-500 in VR.  If I go back to where I was 3 years ago in my expectations, we are already in 'beyond my wildest dreams' territory.
