Fantastic Cinematic effects. Would love to see the physics too in those effects, when flying is extreme conditions.

Really good video !! Love it

Awesome video. Congratulations to the author/s.

I must say after watching these many times, despite our toxic community, Asobo should be proud to what they have achieved of this technological marvel!

25 years ago, my brother and i where wondering how flight simulators would look like in 2020, well, that has been answered,and how!
Nothing less than stunning i would say.
Yesterday we both where playing online, flying the payware G91 jets in formation, and we just had the time of our lives.
Thanks MS and Asobo for this magic, making it “ As real as it Gets”

Absolutely awesome :grin:

I would say that the grainy broadcast sequences in the video are starting to confuse me with reality where I can no longer tell them apart.

Yeah, I showed this to my wife and she was like wow, I can’t really tell if it is a reality or not, especially the part of the Concorde and 747 farewell because of the awesome news editing.

I think this video deserves to be featured in the weekly dev blog

Oh man, it is absolutely one of the best MSFS videos out there.

Very very cool! Hard to see which parts are not MSFS (except for the first / farewell flights of course)!

everything is in MSFS, including the first and farewell

Outstanding. There was some serious work involved there.

Awesome job creating this!

Extraordinary!!

Wow that video made me a bit teary! I feel like that vid epitomises why we all love aviation - at the end of the day we must remember that what bonds us as a community is aviation.

I mean the obvious news items flights (and e.g. the scene at 4:08).

Great film. MSFS 2020 holds many creative possibilities for the photographer/film maker.

Do general aviation next! :grinning_face:
