You don’t touch ground at 2000 fpm indeed, might be bad for your back, it is the final approach 😁 Dominique Simming since 1981 - [email protected] GHz with 16 GB of RAM and a 1080 with 8 GB VRAM running a 27" @ 2560*1440 - Windows 10 - Warthog HOTAS - MFG pedals - MSFS Standard version with Steam

April 14, 20233 yr Gliding over the beach at TNCM in anything big. 50 minutes ago, vgbaron said: Full IFR approach to minimums in any aircraft This for sure. The atmospherics in MSFS are so good that it really is an amazing experience, especially when the cloud bases are such that the runway comes in and out of view just as you're approaching minimums...

April 14, 20233 yr Hand landing the Asobo Airbus without any aids. I started that one day 1 of MSFS. Is easy. The Boeing was not, so I don't do that. The BAE 146 is also very easy.

Not to say bobbing up and down. And I am not even sure that the static ships have even arrestor cables. I’d be glad if you prove me wrong.

April 15, 20233 yr After due consideration, I'll go with Flying Iron's Spitfire Mk.IX. A low, fast pass over Chicomick's Duxford, in the MH434 paint job ( tipping the hat to Ray Hanna ), climb to kill the energy, then around the circuit and over the M11 just low enough to frighten the truck drivers, before settling on the grass. Perfect. 🙂 Edited April 15, 20233 yr by Paul K Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting. https://rationalwiki.org
