Nothing for two months now. I am really disappointed by all that bugs and big downgrade in graphics.
When I bought the boxed version in August and installed it I was excited by the graphics and overall environment. Now, and after the Japan world update I clearly see a great downgrade in graphics. Water, clouds, trees, LOD, far distances etc are all downgraded and I don’t know why. It’s not what I purchased in August. Its just a downgraded buggy piece of software.

Three short visits to Cape Canaveral, Kourou and Baikonour.
I know there is a scenery mod for CC, honestly I was a bit disappointed how it is presented in the default scenery.
Kourou is quite sad. Baikonour somehow feels alright, but it might just be the fact that there isn’t anything around to compare against.
After that short visit to Yucatan - beautifully done!

Tried an IFR flight from EBOS to EGLL with the modified DA62. I wasn’t REALLY sure what I was doing but managed to capture the ILS of 27R and make it in.
My only two mistakes: I had no idea what to do with icing and just before touch down I cut the engine to idle which had more effect than I was used to, so landed a bit harder and bouncier, but made it!
Oh boy
Phew!

I had to clean my trousers (code brown) when I looked at the left-hand side of my PFD during my approach. Notice the hills I barely missed (below) in the PFD? That would have hurt. I had no idea they were there. It was that dark out.
If you’re interested in the rather surprising result, I put it all together here

There must be a bug with fuel mixture effect on the engine as it lets you lean the mixture way too far. I got the plane up to 23 miles per gallon at 1,000 ft ??? I can almost fly there and back on one tank! 1700 mile range instead of 920.
NeoFly has a free add-on that allows you to do just this type of thing:

Asked myself how that pilot was going to extract his plane from this hand-crafted airport after his passengers had boarded!

Did a few circuits in all kinds of wind configuration to feel out my new rudder pedals (they are FFB and a full gamechanger!!!)
Almost killed myself in the alps on the xcellent FS Academy Voyager alps bushtrip (just barely cleared a ridge, stallhorn blaring, and deploying T/O flaps at just the right moment, a trick learned from the most excellent Fate Is The Hunter book). IRL I would likely be dead 
I was hoping to see the Virgin 747 from Heathrow in real time on flight sim, didn’t happen 
, aircraft probably didn’t show up because the flight details wasn’t listed on the airport activity page ie arr/dep page
edit: radar app showing currently flying few miles ahead of BAW 297 though
Same thing we do every night, Pinky, try to take over the world.
