These service update sizes are ridiculous...I'm going to be deleting a ton of bloat.

The VHHX and TNCM airport sceneries are actually not bad at all, I'd say about MK Studios quality.

I think I'll keep them until FlyTampa releases their TNCM scenery 👍

Gonna compare the Asobo VHHX with my RedWing version and see which one I'll keep.

I liked DX 11 in Sim update 10. But now in SU11 beta and full release, I'm always using DX12 (the issues I had with DX12, have gone away). But DX is so complicated there are probably a bug or two still around in the new Direct X, but I haven't noticed any.

thanks very much for the heads up,

are there more updates besides the A310 that you mentioned?

I only saw 4. Two were in content manager (Japan update, I forget the other one). And two in marketplace (DC-3 and A310). 

I think you are supposed to close the sim after installing them and then reboot it. Before I did that, I had issue (stutters in side views, controller conking out mid flight). But rebooting MSFS cured all of that. 

I think the issue is letting MSFS read everything anew in community and official as it installs them on bootup.

I found the free Enhanced DC-3 in the Marketplace & I downloaded 10 Gb of it.

But I don't know what the "Enhancements" are. 

Anyone know?

Texture resolution mostly. For the A310, seat back screens in the cabin as well.

Ok

DC-3, 6GB of texture resolution? Seems a lot.

I think I might wait for more liveries

What I'm having troubles with is landing. In the tutorial it tells me to land with 100-130km/h, but when I try to flare without spoilers out it feels like I could take a 3km runway to settle. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to land with spoilers out?

Yes, you approach and land with spoilers out. On approach you hold the approach speed by pitch and use the spoilers to control the sink rate. When flaring the spoilers stay out - otherwise the glider will float in ground effect for very long. Don't change the position of the spoilers in the flare and just use the elevator to settle down. I remember when I flew gliders IRL I almost fully pulled out the spoilers as soon as I cleared the last obstacles and held it there until rollout - but that may depend on glider type and local practice.

Thank you, very insightful!

Happy with MSFS 🙂
