You know, when I read things like this, I almost get tempted to sign up with Vatsim just to fly the Pelican there. 😅

Now if you already think of me as rigid and uberserious, you are in for a treat 😄

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Dude, get it through your head that not everyone has to use the sim the way you do or want them to. Besides, he put the word in quotation marks for a reason.

5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX  9070XT.

It's also possible that the Pelican serves a useful purpose as a tech demo for things like the remote camera.

Because I can. These "boring" flights are perfect for a parallel "boring" business Teams conf call 😄. This is what I meant we are taking a lot of things too serious.

(If I want to actually "fly" a plane I take something more demanding and challenging like a 146 😉 )

Can't wait for the Cessna 172 download in the new HALO!!!

Love how Asobo announce study level planes for free plus much more and all people complain about is a nicely modelled optional Halo spacecraft 🤣

I think some people are just bored in life and use whinging at everything as something exciting for the day.

These threads are why I love Avsim.  There are a lot of smart, witty, funny people in flight simulation (also smart a##es).

Yeah, I'm just bored with life waiting for the sim to get stable again along with the removed features and quality that I paid for at release. Any year now, just have to be patienttm.

Wonder how these DLC ideas would've gone over back in 2019/20 while the sim was being marketed to the dedicated flight simmers. I bet people would've called us conspiracy theorists and how this was never going to happen. Sim for simmers and all that. Yet here we are, barely two years into the decade long journey.

When was this ever the case?

When did MS/Asobo ever say this?

I'm hoping that WU12 will have Thunderbird 1. No wait! Thunderbird 2 with the Thunderbird 4 pod... 😀

They've ruined the sim as far as I'm concerned. I was trying to have a nice flight in Ireland last night in my 310r, but I was constantly interrupted by my own indignant outrage. It's really annoying. 

Otherwise, though, I'm pretty excited about the upcoming sim add-ons!

My bad, I see world update 9 was the Italy / Malta update. The message on the front page with the picture of the Pelican confused me....

After this could we start another thread on WU8?
