@philmurfin , time stands still for no man, or simmer. Bob Sidwick of RC Sims was at the Cosford show for several years selling GoFlight kit. Sadly he died a few years ago.

That would be around 2000 I think. It was partially destroyed in a fire around that time. Shows then switched to Blackpool 2006 (for FSX release), plus other shows at the NEC Birmingham before ending up at Cosford until COVID / Brexit. My first visit was around 1993 and in 2003 I bought a load of GoFlight units which I still use to this day.

Get yourself a hybrid. Great fuel economy especially in towns. 80mpg with 60mpg on motorways. 👍

Great write-up Chris! 👏 You seem impressed with Concorde so perhaps consider reinstalling P3Dv5 and buy FS Labs Concorde. It remains the standard. Did Lefteris give any clues about Concorde for MSFS? And was Andrew Wilson with him? Andrew is the chief Concorde programmer. Adrian of NWFSG was there plus a few other members. They were running a landing challenge into EGCC. It would have been nice to meet you and see Jon again. We met at Cosford in 2018 or 2019 when he bought the Thrustmaster TPR pedals and I visited his house to try them out. Surprisingly I still use my CH ones. Pity Chris of Fulcrum couldn’t make it but maybe next year. I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. It was worth the effort. 👏

Perhaps I would have understood your point better if you’d written your views rather than posting an obscure video.

DD_Arthur, I’m not interested. It’s bloody awful.

Three times now and haven’t seen any text or heard anything. I’m beginning to think this is a wind-up. Both Charlie and myself can’t see it.

You must be watching a different video to me. I’ve watched it twice now and there’s no mention of Jaguar at 1:10.

Extremely tenuous. Hidden.

I’m not sure why @DD_Arthur has posted that. Nothing to do with the topic. The EV Jaguar is an abomination. It could just as easily be another Chinese box car costing 30,000GBP. 🙄

I’ve hidden a post referring to betting in the NFL. That’s not relevant to the World Cup.

Have you tried checking system files aren’t corrupt? Run System Repair Scans Most users on Quora agree that underlying system file corruption often triggers fast application closures. [1] Right-click the Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin) or Terminal (Admin). Type sfc /scannow and press Enter to repair corrupted system files. Once finished, type DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and press Enter to repair the Windows system image

Well yes, plus FS Labs none of whom have responded to my post on their forum asking if they were attending. I’d happily go through the procedures in an online session if we can find a suitable time given our time difference. Driving isn’t the problem. With an ongoing back problem staying on my feet for more than half an hour is. I went to Cosford in 2019 and it was very uncomfortable. No better now I’m afraid. I’d love to meet you all and I’ll be thinking of you on the 10/11 October.

The topic has moved away from El Niño. Any more climate change chatter and discussion will end.

The topic title is El Niño. It’s drifting away from that into other waters.

v5 definitely. All the world’s coastlines have been redone to very high levels of detail. Plus if you want the best Concorde available FS Labs have one for v5 only. Enhanced Atmospherics is excellent but will require a decent graphics card.

@DieterK , probably more help to @stevendt as he’s the one having the problem.

Those are subjective choices, not objective. Put the question to Google and refine it when prompted. The more detail you give it the better the results it delivers. You’ll have a far greater choice from fiat 16:9 monitors than any other size or type.

@neil0311 , is 32” the largest your room can accommodate? That size has the highest number of 4K monitors. I bought a BenQ 32” 8 years ago and it’s still a superb display. I’ve turned off VSync and with Steam Lossless Generation app can sustain 58fps (29*2) at all but the most demanding airports in P3Dv5 even with FSL Concorde which is my most demanding aircraft. They have two both extremely good. BenQ MOBIUZ EX3210U 4K Gaming Monitor Or if you fancy OLED there’s the EX321UZ|31.5” 4K 240Hz BenQ MOBIUZ OLED Gaming monitor

@Maxijam Welcome to AvSim. I’ve moved your post to the MSFS forum where you’re more likely to get an answer to your question.

UrgentSiesta asked this question… “When have you seen MS do this with any of their other products.” I gave an example from the same company - Microsoft.

Microsoft Office used to be a standalone product that could be purchased outright. I’m still using Office 2010. The current equivalent is Office 365. Subscription only.

Over 24 hours since I posted. 125 views and zero responses. It does make you wonder what their modus operandi is.

I’ve asked the question in their forum. No responses yet. https://forums.flightsimlabs.com/topic/51411-bristol-flight-sim-show-fs-labs-not-attending/?do=getLastComment

Understood. I’ll leave management to confirm it’s okay to stay as it is.
