I am only talking about straight line constant wind not pushing the aircraft to the side enough. MS Flight was the best at this.
Flew through a hurricane and it was too mild in MSFS.

It was easier landing than it would have been driving a car through it, and as I've driven through hurricanes before in a car, I know how bad it is.
So no, it was not realistic. 

MS Flight was a tad better than FSX, but not by much. MSFS is way more advanced as far as turbulence. I have done landings in MSFS, where if I had been flying in real life, I would have done a missed approach, since the turbulence was really making it difficult to get a stabilized approach. Never expeirence that in any other sim, FS Flight, FSX or P3D.

Well, I think you misunderstood.

The sims problem is not the erratic DISPLAY...

You talked about dead wrong wind vectors and my answer was about the wind vectors. If the problem all of a sudden is not what you wrote first, how can I take seriously what you wrote now?

There were plenty of times I should have done a missed approach in MS Flight, as the cross winds on some of those Hawaii coastal airports was usually very severe. Perhaps people have forgotten those epic cross-wind landings in Hawaii.

Read my post again! The issue is not just the visual representation - the problem is how planes actually behave. This is what's dead wrong!

I'm sure the code you threw in there just bought you a seat of honor with each of those 3PDs struggling out there! Now can you also throw in a piece of code that will help those planes also FLY properly in that "turbulence" model...

Gentlemen, you have incredible memories from the previous sims!

I was an expert at Activision River Raid for the Atari  😄

24 minutes of River Raid for the nostalgic ...

 

 

Who needs the weight machines at the gym when you have the controls of the 747 instead?

It would've been great to know what the weather was at the time.

Wasn't talking about crosswinds, I was talking about turbulence. Crosswinds can be there in any sim. 

 

 

 

 

Fair enough, but it's still a wind reaction which I think acts odd in many MSFS planes.
