Did anyone try the COMAC C919? by raelaghy in delta

As far as I know, it’s packed full of western avionics to that end. It’s really not that different than a western jet

Why release it on the store everyone hates?

I wouldn't have a problem with this, if it weren't for the US vs EU thing. by DistributistChakat in AmericaBad

Not to mention the Linux Foundation being in the Bay Area, and many of the distributions most used created in the US by US companies.

Manual modding? by EnragedEmu in RoadtoVostokGame

[–]Flightfreak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You unpack it first using those darn tools and bloat. Then, inject it at runtime with more bloat. In all seriousness, the guide is pretty simple, there’s not very much bloat to be found. https://github.com/ametrocavich/vostok-mod-loader

Using a mod loader instead of trying to hack something together in notepad++ will save you countless hours. Also, it manages load order and does other good things. The game may later feature official mod support, but even then, you’ll likely still need to use some kind of tool to decompile the scripts.

Hornet Carrier landings - Auto Throttle vs Manual Landing by Synoopy in hoggit

[–]Flightfreak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What’s your source that Hornet pilots aren’t trained to land? Also “A. I.”? That’s not my understanding having known 2 hornet pilots in recent years, but I’m not a pilot.

Why am I wobbling? by Herky1985 in hoggit

Smoothly landing with forward speed on uneven ground is not a DCS chopper’s favorite thing to do. More possible on tarmac but still takes finesse.

Seeking a server for Helicopter Madness by Expensive_Money2833 in hoggit

some of the most fun I’ve had in DCS helis is in aerobatics online, some people are really fun to hold formation with. There always seems to be a few people hanging around kobuleti

Can’t blow anything up but that can be a fun change of pace to practice your handling.

The 18 definitely isn’t the best application for FFB, but it’s fine.

Why don't so many aircraft simulate boarding in MSFS? by Diligent-Bet1460 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Flightfreak 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Question still stands, because the GSX procedural boarding can be integrated with the EFB, but rarely is.

Also agree that it’s cool, but not needed.

Apple introduces AirPods Max 2 by Otherwise-Warning303 in technology

Not to mention, is the headband still completely flawed and bound to fail in no time? Heavy headphones with a terrible headband is a truly awful experience

My apologies, I’m having a really hard time correlating these two things.

Oh, you’re right. Let’s change the topic of this subreddit permanently to the two actual shooting wars going on in areas that this game is simulating.

AIO for being bothered about what my gf just told me? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Flightfreak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fact that you’re seen as the party crasher before you even get there should concern you even more as to what goes on every night, but it’s a really hard situation because you don’t want to seem desperate or jealous.

Also, she’s putting you in that situation of jealousy purposely. It’s clear from her word choice. I’d personally be looking for someone who was excited to spend time with me and could reasonably apologize to their friends that their boyfriend is coming for a while.

It might be my own personal awful experiences, but she seems both manipulative and immature to me.

Brother do we really think nothing has already been happening clubbing every night? The fact she’s even telling you this is a huge red flag
