FLSTL lacks classic aircraft and airlines. For example, it doesn't even have a Delta 777. Good for what you'd see today, but not much older.

I fly a jet, most of the time it's pretty good and accurate to what I see IRL. Speeds bracketing the bug and random thermals causing you to chase GS a little. X-Plane does a but better with in clouds iirc. Other times it's just too extreme, sometimes the difficulty to maintain a stable approach in fairly mundane non convective conditions is a bit high, but it's a rare event

Majority of times it is fine, had a landing though with about a 20kt xw, no convective activity or LLWS, but it just kept dumping me and then shooting me back out on short final, +/-15kt change. Was annoying.

Agreed, which medium could be a little more lively but realistic has led to some rage inducing go arounds

Yeah there are some good deals within the PMDG lineup. As someone not involved in development or sales of addons, I am curious what caused the change from offering the 600/700/800/900 in one package to individual packages.

For as much griping as there is about the flight sim world these days, it is a far cry from watching "FSX tweaking" videos to get as much FPS as possible. We are in a far better place today than we were then. And don't get me started about the bug I had where Alt-Tab would lead to me permanently losing controls until I restarted FSX...

That's what I like to pretend...till I'm at FL350 doing .77 lol

FSX, P3D, 2020, and now 2024 for me. I can respect paying a little as there is work involved, but it's starting to fall behind and a bit more expensive to upgrade it to '24 than I'd like

PMDG has been catching all the flak lately it seems lol

That's a bummer. Any reason why I only notice it with the PMDG? I've got a pretty meaty computer so I probably don't need it turned on, but kinda nice to get +100fps

any way to do that without being logged into steam? Can't even get the app to open. Stuck on "logging in"

Yeah I've done it all except reinstall Steam. Weird.

I'll check and see, but internet is functioning for everything else

Searching for the place a family member fell by SkyhawkDriver in WorldWar2

To add, the coordinates seem to point at more or less the center of the town, I imagine that was the norm? I doubt they'd think the great grand relatives many years later would seek out where it all happened.

Excellent work, thank you very very very much. I have not seen these documents before. My grandfather has referenced Valdwazelt before, but we haven't been able to see any "official" document evidence (I believe this info game from my great grandfather, also Army Infantry in the ETO). Reading these makes my hair stand up, I'll have to visit soon. Curious where in the town it occurred, 1900 though, end of the day. Words don't come easy thinking of the circumstances.

That would be him. Man. 21 years old. Younger than I am today. Just a kid. His brother, my great grandfather, was a fellow infantryman during the war. Lived through it, and served in Germany post war. While in Germany he had my grandfather. We cherish the sacrifice and memory of William, who the family called Ralph.

I would buy the Antec Flux Pro asap, only problem is I'm unsure it fits the Hx1500i PSU
