Tried out navigating using a VOR in the Hawker Hunter. I don’t think there’s an auto pilot, so I just followed what the HSI was indicating. So I was flying direct to the VOR, not sure if you can fly a specific radial?
Anyway, flew from EBOS to EBLG (going to VOR SPI) and then back to ABOS (going to COA). I also configured the ILS for landing at EBOS. Flew at around 6000 ft.
I’m still not very good at slowing down for landing, but the landings usually work out. Also quite tricky to trim so I had to constantly correct.
Brussels, Atomium
EBLG (Liege)
EBST (Sint Truiden)
EBBR (Brussels)
Good fun!
Simair: no simair! It failed because I was messing with my Skydemon connection.

The Live Weather is sometimes impressive. I’m parked here at EBOS, I see some rain in the West. I’m thinking “that’s weird”, did not expect rain:
I check the online radar, and sure enough … some rain just West of EBOS.

Why are your images so dark when its supposed to be a bright sunny day?

They’re not dark here, they’re just right most of the time. Im using re-shade for post processing and stuff is just right here, and I can darken lighten with out leaving the program. But those vegas shots are oh so bright without it.
At this end they look dark compared to images further down the page that are also taken in bright sunshine so I guess somethings getting lost by the time I see them here. Strange.

Continued my trip from EGSS to YSSY in the C310 R. This leg was planned to be from Nice LFMN to Istanbul LTBA but real life got in the way and I had to land at Sofia LBSF airport for the night. I’ve also learned that LTBA is now closed and all commercial traffic is routed to the new airport. I’ll do a flyover on my next leg.
The C310 R is a joy to fly and lovely in VR. I’m hoping by the end of the trip I’ll have learned the ins and outs of this aircraft and have, what I already suspect is, a regular favourite.
Does anyone take screenshots whilst using VR? I suppose you get the awful double screen thing that’s seen on my monitor - I’d switch between 3D and 2D but sometimes I swear that seems to trigger some weird behaviour.

Flew from Gardabiya (HLGD) to Zarzis-Djerba (DTTJ) with an added waypoint to keep the route over land.
There was a lot to see from the air
A lot of towns:
Giant LP disks:
Okay, I know they are not that, but definitely look the way
A military target practice location not far from a military airport
It was a nice trip, with a gusty landing, but still managed to land quite okay

Currently doing a flight from YYZ to LGAV in a 777-300R on my Xbox Series X - So far I have been flying for just over 5 hours into the 9.5hr flight with no issues, CTDs, or anything negative. The auto pilot though seems to always fly 500ft below the cruise altitude though… but great flight so far 
I am very excited to see how the landing goes and then tonight I plan on diving into the Flight Training sections of the sim.

I did a 3 hour flight this morning, and when I returned to the sim (morning walk, laundry etc) it was still putting away at 20 fps @1800’ , I should of actually landed, instead of just quitting to see if I would lose fps and have any issues but I didnt. Still from just yesterday a huge step up for me. We’ll have to wait and see what later brings… LOL ?
3 hours later in the toilet again… Comeon really?
