I hope you all expect to have longer boarding times since we only have one working jetway per gate. 😉

I won't be impressed with MSFS until we have two working jetways.

When I returned to Manchester from Dubai there was just the one jetway at stand 12. First Class and Business were let off first. 30 mins later us in cattle-class were allowed off. I wasn't impressed.

A filght around the pattern at KMIA, and then a SKBO-KMIA: UAE214, usually done in a 77W IRL. This time will be upgraded to an A380.

I'd have done LFBO-SKRG (the first A380 Atlantic crossing ever, and the first time an A380 showed up in Colombia), but there are no Airbus liveries yet released.

None. I'm waiting for a good A220 that can land at short runways and makes sense to fly shorter distances than the big monster airliners which annoy and bore me when I fly on them in real life, or fly in them virtually.

Hmmm I’m thinking Southend to London City. Want to join me @sloppysmusic?

The first thought I had was EGLC!! I was going to start Biggin Hill though as it has the parking space 😁

My actual first flight was MDPP to TNCM. Was a disaster as MDPP had wrong nav data for runways and SID so had to start with manual leg then half way msfs turned into hopeless stutter fest. Updated AUTO FPS after seems to be better now. 

Despite that experience 2 major positive points were that it was the first jet in msfs that taxis like it has more mass than a microlite and external sounds in flight are realistic. Sounds pretty good from cockpit too.

Need three working jetways. Had that capability in another sim for years.

Now that FBW's A380 is out, it's become a necessity for our poor, long-suffering virtual pax!
