I’ve been waiting for this baby for a long time - so excited to see it finally arrive! Share your thoughts here! I tried it on my “first impressions” stream last night with a quick flight around NYC, with landings in the Hudson and elsewhere. She handles beautifully and I’m already in love. Loves:…

That being said, I did change the windshield reflections significantly a couple of months ago, and those changes will be…

For sure, I’ll go fly now and see what the weather’s like. It’s not just your plane. GotFriends Wildcat is like that too. They told me it was a known issue with the sim and they’d fix it as soon as they could. One of the real problems is that it’s a Cessna 172 reflection which is exceptionally sill…
