To install the preset, find your MSFS file and go to Local State > Weather > Presets and move the file there.

Thanks for the extremely fun fly-in! Very scenic, enhanced by the great weather preset, with some really enjoyable company! Some severe connection issues prevented me from properly flying during much of the session, but I still enjoyed the rest of it!

Also I really couldn’t decide which smaller aircraft to pick for this flight. Thank you SeedyL for reminding me of the VL-3! I’m not sure if I’ve flown with it again since your Japan tour.
