I was flying at 1000 ft. across the Block Island Sound north of Long Island in my Diamond DA62, and a large airliner came so close that my plane shook violently from side to side.  I continued only for a minute or so and went out of the room to tell my wife what happened.  Came back in a minute and my plane was laying flat on it's back in the water.  I used the slew key and rose it back up to try to continue my flight.  At about 300 feet I was hit from the side with this plane and again fell into the water.  I can't believe this happened, but this is no joke.  It did. I have aircraft damage disabled and have come in contact with planes on the ground and it just slices right through them.  Not this time.

First thing I do  with any sim I am flying is turn off crash detection.

I don't think that would have kept that plane from hitting me.  Besides I have to dodge all those airport vehicle, AI aircraft and pushback boys.

Asobo has wanted for some time to add wake turbulence. DCS and P3d (ASN) both allow engines and wings and propellers to disturb air for nearby aircraft, and it's amazing.

MSFS will be so much fun when you can make all the 172's at KJFK snap roll with a flyby of your PMDG.

There is some form of wake turbulence built in.  It was added with the Reno pack for the racers.

I sure hope so.

Sounds like he was in multiplayer and someone was going kamikaze on him.

It's definitely not a joke.  It was a very violent crash.  My altitude was only 1000 feet  up, so I don't know why an AI plane would be that low, even though I've had them buzz the tower while parked in an airport.  If this had of been close to Kennedy or a large airport I could maybe understand.  I had one pass me a few days ago going in the opposite direction that was only about 100 yards away.

After I made the post, I went back and hit resume and my plane was still lying on it's back in the water.  I hit the "Y" key and slewed back to about 8000 ft and resumed my flight, but I was about five miles off my course

It was for real.

Edit:  I don't do multiplayer.

OK, but in one post you say

"I have aircraft damage disabled and have come in contact with planes on the ground and it just slices right through them"

 

then in the next post,

in answer to someone saying "First thing I do  with any sim I am flying is turn off crash detection."

You say

"I don't think that would have kept that plane from hitting me"

 

which sort of implies you didnt have damage disabled???, I dunno
