Oh yea I’m not going to fly it non stop. I’m going to get the Landmark series Dubai and Mumbai. I will make stops to smaller airports along the way.
I flew on from Svalbard to Alert and survived the landing on moguls (damage off). The runway is very uneven, making the plane bounce a lot. Max reverse thrust to slow down and get it to settle.
The graphics are still very poor in northern Canada and Greenland. Passing the tip of Greenland
Arriving in Canada
On top of the pixelated ground, different tones in clouds
And I thought they fixed the latitude draw distance bug (not that there are trees here irl)
FPS tanked from 30-40 fps to 5 to 10 fps in the soup at Alert
Not much to see here, no idea why fps is so bad (maybe it was time for a restart)
Anyway fun polar flight hopping, started in Vancouver → Stewart → Anchorage → Nome → Dutch harbor → Adak → Attu → Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky → Tiksi → Svalbard → Alert
Currently otw to Pond Inlet, heading back south
Got out of the pixel area, looking better now
Still too far north for the vfr map to work (zoomed out it won’t display further North than 76.5 degrees)
Btw, anyone know what causes this weird effect, something updating once per sec
Ultra settings @1080p
Anyway, be careful, there be dragons up here!
And how do you stop the drone from falling over all the time… Since SU5 it’s always rotating.
Arrived at Pond Inlet. I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or if its just bugged.
On approach to Pond Inlet (CYIO) I get RNAV 02 assigned for approach. I go to flight computer, press F-Plan, select the destination, click on arrival, then click on RNAV 02 and Insert*. This worked for Anchorage, yet the last 2 times I tried this it seems to send me back to my departure. And again this time it made the VFR map crash as well (froze, can’t operate any longer)
I entered RNav 02 approach where the plane turns back
I switched to heading mode and flew to LIVRA (at the +) myself to turn and find the runway.
Much better runway than at Alert, still quite bumpy like at Svalbard
Beautiful day out here
It logged the take off and landing for a change!

That’s incredible an rx580 can handle flight Sim. Despite all the issues, it’s quite impressive what they have managed to achieve. And that picture looks awesome by the way.
SBNT - SBFN.
Governador Carlos Wilson Airport is located on Fernando de Noronha island, the farmost eastern airport of brazil and south america. From there I have around 1400nm to fly to africa. But this long flight I can do only on weekend (5h expected with TBM930).

The game loads about 20 seconds faster.
The flights load in about half the time.
Exiting the game seems much faster and much less painful.

Haven’t done anything today, but thought id share something cool me and a friend have been doing.
We are currently up to flight #39 in a “around the world flight”. We started in Sydney, AU (YSSY) and will likely end in our actual home city of Newcastle, AU (YWLM), just a 2 hour drive from Sydney.. - once we get back around.
Currently up to our 40th flight, we are now located in VYNT (Naypyidaw, Naypyidaw Union
Territory, Myanmar). We have an itinerary set of around 200+ flights, so a long way to go until we get back home.
Just thought id share, a really fun trip around the world we are doing. Trying to see as much as possible!

Just still get 1 or 2 CTD’s a night, but normally the first two times booting. Then 3rd time, i never get another one. Once the CTD’s fixed, itll be awesome!
Only graphical gripe i hate (and this is since day 1, not a SU5 issue) is the Glassy effect from clouds. They have a weird grainy, glassy effect.. always been annoying since day one for me. Not sure if this can ever be fixed, maybe with DX12? not sure.

Tried to ski down Mt Hood – unfortunately while the ground texture looks like snow, it’s not snow. 
Also found some sort of bug in my HDR screenshot processing tool which now I have to fix. Yay!

Nothing yet because the Carenado Mooneye M20 costs 30€ 
but the vouchers are 25€ therefore I need to go again and buy another one before flying 
See you later!
Well I thought I’d fly along UFO alley and see if I could see UFO"s. I also fiddled with the traffic because I just dont see boats anywhere, pushed them both to 100 and launched.
The 1st thing I noticed:
To many monkeys jumping on the bed
Then proceeded down the coast toward Cherry Point:
Captain there be boats:
Then I decided to play some Muddy Waters:
Then I landed at Cherry Point:
And now you may ask: Im going outside to smoke a butt then maybe go get some food!
Oh yeah Its Friday where the patch! Muahahahaha

First try to test if the marketplace works correctly with gift vouchers to see if later PMDG and Aerosoft and other later releases can be paid without using Credit Card or Paypal - I bought the Carenado M20 Ovation.
