That's why I regulate certain aircraft to regions when I decide to fly there: 1. BS Baron/A36 - Florida flying up and down the state 2. BS Duke - Carefree airport just north of Pheonix (Nice for short hopes to Vegas) 3. BS KingAir - Charter flying from Vegas to the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, etc 4. BS Commander - SoCal flying up and down the coast (previously the bird of choice was FSReborn's Piper Meridian 500) 5. Default Cirrus - Local Georgia ATL area flying All the bush/float planes are relegated to Alaska Forges area or the Pacific Northwest These are to name a few but having designated areas for certain aircraft breaks things up a bit. Since I live in Florida, I say what would be my bird of choice for real world ownership? What would I like to fly in if I had friends in other places like Arizona or the Gold Coast? Then stick to those areas for those birds. Then there's military aviation with add-ons like Super Carrier Pro (with it's global locations) or off the beaten path there's the yacht add-ons that look best in the waters of Monico and Tahiti (guess I went off the beaten path). This for me keeps it interesting.🙃

You better have something as you get older because women, clubs, and booze are a thing of the past. That's the trouble with people as they get older. Some feel they should fit into a box of what they should be. Do what you love because that's all you have on a day-to-day bases when decide to shut off the news and you phone. As long as the hobbies are constructive, care less what others think. Now that I'm off from work, I'm off to fly that new 'Commander 114' I just bought...😁

This just worked for me, go figure.😶💯

I've known you for years on these forums and the work you've done modeling and helping us all out when needed is immeasurable. Take care of yourself and keep us posted. Your one of the originals around here.

Talk about putting lipstick on a pig...🤡 Just joking, Sh** happens sometimes.

I was just about to switch over to that one. Thanks for the heads up.☠️👆😁

Florida down...

Any intel on this from anyone? Does this affect Flight Simulator staff in any way?

The model in general looks better than the default and the HUD/cabin is a nice touch for those of us still on 2020. Issues: For the life of me I can't understand how proper integration of the Avionics didn't happen here. There's some glaring issues (not as many as I was expecting) that I'm sure a modder can fix. Shouldn't be that hard as we have the default bird as reference. Wish I could do it...😔 The issue found on other birds from this developer where the taxi light shows in the cockpit is present but in this case you can turn it off before takeoff and use the landing lights only. There was some windshield anomalies at the payware KPBI but after takeoff and landing at the freeware KFFC I didn't see it again. Bottom line is it's usable which is better than I was expecting. Night lighting is better than default. The flight model and sounds seem to be taken from the default Longitude. If a modder corrected the WT integration I'd say it's worth it if your still on 2020. The only thing that can't be corrected is that taxi light issue.😑

Makes something you can't pass on (if nothing more that the sake of curiosity)...🤑 https://secure.simmarket.com/sim-federation-longitude-with-ghd-2100-hud-msfs2024.phtml

I'd love to get the PimaxAir without the lighthouse option (tired of the grainy look lower resolution compared to monitors of our options today), but it looks like the company can't get things together.😐 The future is small form factor and a more competitive price. That doesn't like it's going to be a reality until sometime after 2027.

Looks like there won't be any live weather injection into the sim until Meteoblue is back online. This only affects those that use default weather. I noticed the website wasn't pulling down any live weather earlier but hoped it didn't affect what the sim could pull down. Looks like it did. Hope the outage doesn't last too long.

I always wondered about this flight. Grew up in San Diego over by Mission Bay, the Clairmont area. If one wanted to tour downtown from the air what would that flight look like with KSAN and North Island right there. Considering the PSA crash I didn't think it was no longer allowed until I visited out there last year and saw a Cessna flying over the bay when I was at Point Carillo (Point Loma). Thanks so much for this as it clears allot of things up for how it's done.💯 I'm shocked after the PSA crash no ATC communications are required transitioning the VFR corridor...🫤

Man, glad there's a 2020 version...💯😜

This one needs some modders as this actually could work. I wish SF would quit making the birds many of us want. It would make it easier for the hard pass...😵‍💫
