Are you ready for the LDA Z 22?

Once again I feel more than vindicated in my decision not buy anything on release day anymore 😄 thanks to all the "beta testers", though

Thanks a lot, will use it more often as our most beloved become retired more and more, if they haven‘t already.

Does anyone remember the website/database with historic flight schedules? It was quite useful if you want to operate flight schedules of the past realistically.

Boris did the sounds... that's one thing that gets it going for me

Looks like a substantial update, nice. I have to admit that I enjoy flying the A321 NEO more and more, and in fact prefer it over the Fenix buses by now… Hopefully, the A320 NEO will follow some time soon.

It's going to be an expensive summer

Seems like they just wanted to show something for the sake of showing...

Looks and sounds like a straight port from FSX/P3D. Back in the day that level of graphical detail and quality was acceptable, because it was also performance friendly. They will need to step up their game for MSFS 2024 considerably.

Found this in a Google search, directly from the NTSB homepage. Might be relevant for those interested in realistic SWA operations. https://data.ntsb.gov/Docket/Document/docBLOB?ID=18862560&FileExtension=pdf&FileName=Operational%20Factors%20-%20Attachment%203%20-%20Southwest%20Airlines%20B737%20Normal%20Checklist-Rel.pdf

Yes... I have kept my Navigraph subscription as well. Not all airlines use LIDO, it's mostly a European thing. In the rest of the world, Jeppesen still dominates. Perhaps it's a bit over the top, but I like to use the chart supplier of the airline I'm flying in the simulator.

If you have an external tablet, the charts will display just fine there, even though there is no dedicated app (yet).

Just did my first flight with the most recent update, albeit a short one (MUC-STR, 45 minutes block time). Vectoring was the best I've ever experienced. Basically true to life judging by the flight pah of the actual real world flight. Can't say much about ground handling, conflicts etc., yet because there wasn't much to handle, Munich is very efficient anyways and there is hardly any traffic at Stuttgart these days... taxi clearance to the gate was on point, though. My hope/request for the future: More local copilot voices. I need an Italian first officer with a thick accent for my flights. 😅 BATC is such a gem.

Air France too: PH-RRS Fokker 70 Air France/Air Inter | c/n 11540. At London… | Flickr I think KLM only started LCY when they had already gotten the Embraers

That's insane, I had no idea it was! There's even some pictures on the internet: London City Airport Spotters' page | Summer 2008 throwback when we had the🇦🇹Tyrolean / Austrian Arrows Fokker 70 service to Vienna. | Facebook I was going to pick it up at some point anyways, but with iniBuild's LCY already released, it will be sooner rather than later...
