What did you do in MSFS today? (Part 1)

Tried Devil’s Tower again with the Aero ultralight aircraft.. Quite easy actually, maybe a little too easy.. landed in the mud instead of rock,

Took a flight form Katmandu (VNKT) to Paro (VQPR). Very short flight but the hardest thing to do in the Simulator to date. Did not take any snapshots was to busy trying not to crash. I now understand why there are only 15 pilots in the world approved to make this flight with Bhutan airlines into Paro. I would not even want to be a passenger on that flight. Whew!!!

Excellent vid, love the music selection and great shots!

Flew from Berlin to Athens in the 320

Flew from KMIA by VFR to KATL by Imagesim with no CTD.

Oh god the moire :wink:

I had a nice flight from Islamabad to Kabul with a TBM (with the UN livery). Great to visit places I would not go in a million year in RL.

Checked on the elephants. Glad to see they are practicing ‘social distance’. Didn’t notice any masks, though.

I also did the Mt St Helen a few days ago. One of the most impressive view on MSFS I think.

I tried to fly the sim today, I couldn’t AGAIN, hope that helps

Well, before the outage I managed to get a quick flight from Grand Bahamas to Ft Lauderdale Hollywood Exec using Live Weather no less. I’m really rusty on ILS procedures, completely forgot to switch to APR mode after passing the IAF. LOL. But it looks beautiful down there in Sunny Florida!

Then I fired up the sim again to get screenshots to help someone navigate how to change the G3000 from inches to HPA.

I wanted to take the Savage Carbon out in Greenland again, because there was a 40 kts tail wind. But I won’t be going anywhere with that weather. On the plus-side, the Savage Carbon’s Cabin Heat Defrosting works!

I did some OnAir jobs today in my 787

I flew from:
DAOO to EGSS with with a A320 size cargo job that has 3 drops in Germany at airports too small for the 787 which I will do in my A320 tomorrow rather than fly the 787 back to EGSS back empty.

EGSS to DAOO with the second half of the cargo job that put me at DAOO yesterday and thus started from DAOO today.

DAOO via LIEA to EDDE with two jobs, a cargo of glass goods to LIEA and 300 pax to EDDE.

EDDE to EGSS a transfer back to EGSS empty so the 787 can have its 100h inspection and I can fly the A320 tomorrow which is at EGSS after its 100h inspection etc.

MSFS wasn’t restarted at all, neither did I go back to the main menu, started at 10:00h UTC and ended at 23:30h UTC with ~10h of flying and the rest waiting for cargo or pax loading/unloading.

Did some touring the last two days… got up early in LA to fly the waning hours of the UK… EGGP-EGGD


EGNT-EGYD (Hope some creator brings Cranwell to its RAF Academy brilliance)

Nothing. I can’t log in :sob:

Grounded…

1 - During the weekend MSFS started but no connection to XBOX ( I guess it was some problem with “MS gaming services”) had to wait for a Windows gaming service update.

2 - Flown a bit on wednesday , but aircraft are hovering all over the runway.

3 - Yesterday I couldn’t log in to Xbox…

Take off from Bordeaux. Still love this game

Odd day yesterday. First no log in to xbox live, 3 restarts later I got in, logging in twice during loading. On take off just before rotate, huge box on screen, connection lost, plane gets pushed off the runway by the wind behind the dialog box.

I get in the air, connection lost box keeps popping up for about an hour then it seems the server problems are over. Yet the handling of the plane feels off and sometimes it refuses to turn. Is my flight stick malfunctioning? No clue, sometimes it won’t bank right, re-center the stick try again, now it banks right. Intermittently the plane seems to have a mind of its own and won’t listen to my inputs.

Next over Melbourne, fps tanks, sim starts stuttering more and more to a 60+ seconds freeze


Somehow the manipulators thread is causing frequent pauses with little burst of more regular fps in between. Manipulators is all red. And then after leaving Melbourne it completely goes away, smooth fps again.

Next, what is going on with drag. Sometimes I can land normally, other times the plane will not slow down. Despite max flaps, zero throttle, level flight, it stays above 100 knots. I have to force it on the runway to brake with the wheels using the elevators as spoilers, race car style.

Despite all that, an amazing flight over Tasmania, first time I’ve seen water masks in the game.

Just weird, handling was very off last night. The sim had a sick day.

I put together some Real GA operations videos, and flew on Vatsim in the A320…and didn’t crash! If you’re interested in doing some landaways, circuits, how trim works or how to get started on vatsim have a look :slight_smile:
