Tangerine Dream goes well with a long flight. History podcast are great too.

PMDG 737 flight model question
CanadaOne replied to CanadaOne's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Well I certainly didn't mean to start a heated discussion, just wanted to know if the plane "felt good" when flying. And it does. The plane feels tight, both in the way it flies and how things work in the cockpit. Just had a great night hop from Montreal to Toronto, learning some of the systems, listening to a podcast in the background, very mellow. Good fun. Landing wasn't perfect, but smooth enough. -
PMDG 737 flight model question
CanadaOne replied to CanadaOne's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Morning, Been years and I've always had IL2, DCS, and MSFS (or FSX) on my PC. I want all the flightsim toys I can get my hands on. Obviously MSFS is the god-king of terrain eye candy but I've always felt the flying to be, as I said before, mushy compared to DCS. I guess I bought the wrong planes, and I'm sure my in-game controls and HOTAS aren't set up nearly as well as they should be. I HATE the MSFS controls setup program with a seething diabolical passion. It's like backwards algebra to me. Fortunately the 737-600 is making my MSFS happy. Finally have a quality plane that feels right. I have about 1/10th invested in time and money in MSFS that I do in DCS, but that may change and my wallet will weep. -
PMDG 737 flight model question

I love this thing! Darn good fun. The module feels tight and precise. I haven't bought many planes for MSFS because everything felt a bit mushy to me in this sim. I'm used to dropping $100 for DCS planes because I find they feel precise. This thing is giving me that same feeling of quality and for only $45. I know I'm late to the game on the PMDG stuff, but it's still quite something. And the HUD is great. I may park my F-15E for a while and be an airliner nerd. 🤪 -
PMDG 737 flight model question

I grabbed the 737-600. The price was right and I'll wait for the 777 to get a big plane. I want to fly a skyscraper and that one should be pretty sweet. The 737 is very nice. Love the handling. Though I did screw up my first flight badly enough that I got an email from PMDG suggesting I give the plane back and stick to playing with LEGO. But you really do feel the difference in quality pretty quick with this thing compared to the default jets. I guess I have many tutorial videos ahead of me and that's just fine. Thank y'all for the help. Defintely a good purchase. 😎 -

Ahhh, we've met on other sites. We've spoken a few times at IL2 or DCS. 😎 Defintely the flight dynamics, as Fiorentoni out it, that interests me. I think I'm going to grab the 737-600 today. Between the reviews and the confirmation here, seems like a good choice. -

Defintely great reviews everywhere. And you would say the flight model is better than, for example, the in-game A320? -
Hello, Though not a hardcore systems guy, I like the best eye candy and flight model possible. I saw a review that says the PMDG 737-600 flight model is the MSFS flight model, does that mean it's a "standard in-game" model like the included A320 or has it been improved? (I would get the Fenix A320 but my cash is already in my Steam wallet so I just buy in the marketplace.) And if anyone knows when the next marketplace sale might be... 😎 Thank you.

Deleting world updates for space
CanadaOne replied to CanadaOne's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I got rid of the training flights, but I'll dump those others as well. Thanks. I don't really understand the ins and outs of the community folder so I leave it alone. -
Deleting world updates for space
CanadaOne replied to CanadaOne's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
If that is the Caribbean update it's at about 22GB for me. Not installed, I don't fly there much. Have 80GB deleted from the game and that might be it. There are two scenery packs and an airport or two I'd like to get on the next sale. Lots of room now. -
Deleting world updates for space
CanadaOne replied to CanadaOne's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I can only use one NVME on my MB and it's a 1TB just for DCS, that's my main sim. I have a 500GB SSD for MSFS, and it was starting to get a bit full. And SSDs seem to have gone up in price a bit lately. Just knocked out 40GB of MSFS, nice to have a bit more free space. -

I found 50GB to delete pretty quick. haven't done it yet, just cataloguing stuff first If .I delete a "flight" from the content list, does that just delete the flight plan or some scenery as well? -

Thank you. -
Hello, My MSFS dedicated SSD is getting a bit full and I can't replace it right away. My question: if I delete any regional world updates, am I also deleting updates/improvements to the core sim that might have come with those updates or am I just losing terrain detail in those areas? Thank you. 😎
