Good book for upcoming DC-6, or for any aviation fans!
I'm currently reading a book titled, Fate is the Hunter, by Ernest Gann. It is a memoir of his, from his early days of flying DC-2s in the 30s, to flying in the war, then postwar till the 50s. It shows what air transportation was like in the beginning, very interesting stories. Im about halfway through, just got done with a chapter on him and his captain dealing with severe icing, he did an amazing job of telling the story, as he does all the others in the book. Anyway, I just thought some might enjoy it, with the upcoming DC-6 being from a similar era. And also I think anyone who likes aviation, history, and a good read will enjoy this!

DTG Flight Simulator expectations: let's face reality
Great post. Idk how people can expect all that for the base game. I'm thrilled and excited at what dovetail is doing. And all I want is them to create a stable platform with good physics, lighting, and atmosphere, that will give the 3rd party developers the ability to deliver add ons with features that were not possible in FSX/P3d

Trying to learn how to land manually
As my flight instructor said. The aircraft owners manual is an advertisement for the manufacturer, the checklists are to protect the manufacturer, and the FARs are to protect the government. "See, look at FAR so and so, we said he shouldn't do that, pilot error"

https://mobile.twitter.com/airfrance/status/664115763427590144 I know these aren't the best pictures, but hopefully once the aircraft is out in service, more pictures will be available. I think it looks really cool!

There's no altitude sensation in P3D/FSX
I agree with the OP, I always felt that the MSFS family has done a terrible job with altitude perception. XP10 does a great job on the other hand, especially when you have a heavy cloud layer and see some ground poking though, you really feel high up. The new DCS Edge does a great job too
