  1. I agree on the NZA Comments. Nelson is one of my favourites:
  2. Long time since I flew a real life 172 but 20 mph sounds way to fast. Unless you are on pavement I suspect you might be risking prop strike on bumps at that speed and ground loop when turning.
  3. Tomahawk is not the only one cursed with unrecoverable spins. The Beechcraft Baron is renowned for asymmetric thrust flipping it into into an unrecoverable flat spin.
  4. Basically I enable it in Windows when using MSFS2020 or other HDR games (if I remember) and disable it when not gaming. I also disable it when making videos of MSFS2020 . It only takes a mouse click to enable/disable it in Windows.
  5. Neofly is worth mentioning as a free option. It is not as sophisticated as some of the other VA you pay for - but the basic career for just you flying is free. You only pay if you want options like managing other pilots.
  6. Seems to have started out as a FSX conversion but Ant's Tigermoth is amazing so the Winjeel may be worth a look.
  7. The minimum spec FS2020 CPU is 4 core (non hyper thread) so yes 4 threads but 4 real cores. I think two cores will struggle no matter what.
  8. Not sure about the real one actually uses, but the TBM 850 is borderline needing to move to flows.
  9. This one was impressive. Even if the 37 was actually a 10 it is still wrong. Must be a runway with a bend in the middle I suppose, or maybe crescent shaped. Maybe it is something like this:
  10. There is a wish list thing with 800 or so votes dating back to 2021 - but it cannot hurt to add your vote as well ... https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/aircraft-specific-control-profiles/153199 Meanwhile this looks interesting (though you need the paid version): https://sonicviz.com/project/aircraft-manager/
  11. The only time I CTD lately seems related to State Saving where a particular livery on an addon will seem to CTD for a bit on load but usually eventually come good. No rational explanation for it.
  12. I regularly fly it from the runway just for a quick circuit or day trip without making use of the walk around and failures and other in depth features. It is seriously immersive and lots of little features and sounds you barely notice add up to it feeling way more "realistic" in ways that are hard to define. Yes, the often misquoted statement that the "Spitfire was easy to fly" is only true in the sense that compared to things that killed you if you were not paying attention like the Gloster Gladiator or something like an I-16 it was benign, that does not mean it is a 172, There are plenty of people who genuinely cannot afford the higher priced addons and need to assess the opportunity cost or need to justify it with a use case, for example to "mum" whose credit cards is being used. nagging mum for a batch of microtransactions or cheap DLC over a period of time is definitely more likely to be successful than trying to get an addon worth almost as much as the game that was a XMAS present, We are not talking about those simmers. I was merely commenting on people who, from their own comments, seem to own multiple cheaper addons, but on sort of principle, refuse to buy addons up around the price of the original game. In the real world, the argument "I simply do not have finances to afford a Porsche and cannot justify it" is perfectly valid but saying "I could add half a dozen Lada to my car collection for the price of that one Ferrari, hence it is overpriced" is just plain silly. .
  13. It is well worth the price. I am always surprised by people that refuse to buy quality planes as they "cannot afford it" and then proceed over a few weeks to buy a whole stack of throwaway cheap stuff they never fly that adds up to more than that quality aircraft "they cannot afford" .
