What did you do in MSFS today? (Part 2)

Today I practiced for the Reservoir Run that @cyclicalobsessv has organized.

I flew this twice:

  • Once with @cyclicalobsessv to get a “feel” for flying this route, (and learned how to create a “flight plan” in World View).
  • Once by myself, with Live Weather and Real Time turned on.  I was wondering, “Why isn’t this stinkin’ airplane going where I point it!!!”  Then it struck me - wind!  A ten knot wind doesn’t seem like much, but it isn’t negligible either.

Then. . .

I went and wiped the sweat off my palms.  Actually made a couple of pretty good landings on the reservoir except the second time I got my nosewheel stuck in the mud when I tried to climb onto the beach.
