Pilot's lounge - What did you do in MSFS today?

Getting Rid Of Roads In SDK

Yes, I managed - the secret was not to try to mix getting rid of vegetation at the same time. One exclusion for the road, and separate exclusion for the vegetation.

I have been a fan of the LongEZ since the early 80’s when I lived in Colorado and saw something weird passing overhead. I had several homebuilder friends that helped me learn all about the “marriage killer” effort to build a LongEZ. I never built one, but have always “owned” one in my flight sims. Back in 2018, I rebuilt an X-Plane 9 version for X-Plane 11, updating the avionics with a new panel layout and a personal livery. And also built a custom livery for the vSkyLabs x-plane LongEZ (which is an absolute pleasure to fly with much better flight modeling than MSFS, but I am enjoying the MSFS LongEZ none-the-less.)

I haven’t added any “homebuilt” mods to the indiafoxtecho LongEZ, but would love “0 trim” and “Takeoff Trim” marks in the cockpit. (I’m not sure the lever moves though when I or the autopilot adjusts the trim.)

I have several hundred sim hours in X-Plane LongEz models, and about 20 hours in the MSFS LongEz as I get to know its personality and handling.

I’ve looked at the Velocity, but prefer the “fighter like” canopy visibility of the LongEz since I sim alone most of the time. I am sure passengers would prefer the shared experience and visibility of the Velocity.
