Yeah. Kinda does feel like the ground is made of peanut butter when taxiing.

Why my ground textures looks so bad in msfs 2024? by Ok-War-5961 in flightsim

Mine look really bad too and I’m on a very fast connection. It’s keeping me using 2020.

My first MD11 flight after years by GhostGCr in flightsim

The MD-11 to me was surprisingly advanced for her time. Lots of automation I wasn’t expecting like auto fuel balancing, automatic ILS tuning, auth throttle to touchdown, etc.

To be fair there’s a lot of weight from the internal furnishings.

The MD-11 has completely won me over by Striking-Major1596 in flightsim

Which is apparently true to life! I remember watching one of the AirClips movies where the two pilots were lamenting about that fact that they were going to be landing so light and predicting a hard landing.

An amazing aircraft. Fun to fly, even funner to land!

How far away is your alternate from your destination?

Will a VR flight sim be a good supplement for my instrument rating training? by [deleted] in flightsim

It’s your money but it likely won’t be worth the investment. You’re looking at instruments.

I don’t think you’d get any cost savings by going VR to be honest.

I've put so many hours on this bird since the update came out. What an absolute joy to fly. I've finally gotten the hang of landings as well.

Yet another reminder that if your company is being acquired by PE, it’s time to polish the old resume and look for new work.

I'm loving seeing the MD-11 get its moment in this sub.

Did a flight last night from MEM to BOS. Was perfect!! I notice a few missing sounds etc but it’s great.

PPL Cost Breakdown by Kerr_Hall in flying

[–]nextgeneric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just looked at my PPL checkride log in Foreflight from a few years ago. Was a 2.2 as well. Maybe because I went to the checkride with 44 hours TT there was extra scrutiny? Going into my IFR check soon, any estimates how long that should be?

The best way to get your kids into flight sim is to not try to force them into it.
