Well said! my thoughts exactly.

And I had my wallet out and everything.... back in the pocket it goes. So besides the basic warbirds, has any new content been released? since Flight was released? As far as I am concerned there has been zero new content since release. Alaska would be nice, but without a cockpit we will be flying the same planes? old.

Awesome Mapper! thanks! will check it out!

Ah crap... no cockpit? I'm not buying it.This is not a plane a month. This is a toy a month.

They really should have put a nice tutorial in about all gauges really. I was in the same 'plane' as you - I had no idea how to ILS or what gauge was what. So I landed both ILS challenges VFR.... and got silver on the first ILS and gold on the second ILS the first try. Just to toot my own horn lol. It was INTENSE landing VFR in those missions. On the last one all I could see was a small light in the fog, so I flew towards that. Turned out I almost smacked into the control tower!I used some awesome youtube videos that showed me how to get it done.

Yeah! woohooo!ATC mode and 40-50 players... I agree.. awesome idea!

LOL at the zero votes for leaderboards - especially when Joshua Howard said they may put that in...Leaderboards... who cares?

Good interview!Seems very honest, and that is a good thing. My overall confidence in the future of Flight has increased. Thank you.I too am also concerned about how many aircraft will be released without a cockpit. No cockpit = no buy from me.

I agree, it does go against the idea of finding them, but I personally do not really enjoy the hunt. What I enjoy about the aerocaches is that they are all located somewhere special and they are where the cool stuff is. Now I am not lazy. I will fly across all the islands to see something neat and learn. My fun is flying to something cool and learning about it. I'm not a fan of flying in a grid pattern. I would use a complete map as I would visit each unique location several times.As it is right now, I find an aerocache and then a week later I forget where it was.So I guess I don't really mind the hunt for the aerocache, I would just like it marked on a map once I find it so that I may return. And this site is a cool way to do that.

Even in free flight it will give you that display? I am not in aerocache hunt mode. I also do not use the HUD. I will and can, I just think one map with all the points would be awesome. I also think that MS should let us to put notes in the in game map. Too many neat things to see to remember where to return to them. The areocaches are all at neat things, so a map of all of them in one display would be sweet.Thanks.

Hi Mapper! Thanks for all of the hard work. Count me in as a fan.I do have one request/idea:Can you have all of the aerocache points on one map? Or is this a limitation of google earth?I would like to just fly around, and then check the map to see if an aerocache is close by. I would also like to use this to revisit aerocache areas that I have already obtained.Thanks!

Yes, I had a similiar debate going through my head. Wait to see what else is in store? or Go for it. I put a 1,000 miles into the game with no dlc, and then realized I want to support this. So I am all in... here's hoping!

DId you ever manage it? I eventually got gold on it. All realism settings on hard, EXCEPT for smooth braking. I needed the smooth braking on this strip. I do not have the gear to brake smooth without it. I just have an all-or-nothing button.I actually managed it by coming in fast at about 72-75 kts, and concentrating on hitting soft and the middle. Worry about the consequences of this after you touch. It also helps to get angry :LMAO:Skim the tree tops and dive right down in idle as soon as you are past the tree tops.

I could not get it to spin. But that is probably just me. I hit full left rudder and it would start but the nose would drop and it would recover. I can't keep it spinning without it dropping too much and recovering. I'll have to keep trying things.

Gamertag is Bumblewoot.On most evenings.I'll try and add you guys. Please put AVSIM in the note.Thanks,Bumblewoot
