Finally going to do a big flightseeing tour using all my airport addons that I've brought over the past year with a few more addons to add. Its something I've been wanting to do and have held off in the past for a few reasons but now those reasons are gone. Mainly lack of good ATC with local dialect, AI traffic etc. So to start, some of the legs are a bit long for a small GA that has a slow cruise speed. For that reason, I will be switching between the Black Square Baron B58T P model and for shorter legs, my go to favorite, the PA24 Comanche from A2A. Both offer wear and tear, system rich and Air Manager gauges. Being both are low wing planes which arent the best for…

As members of AVSIM, we all interact in many ways. That could be discussion and banter, disagreement but also help. There are also those who give a lot more than they take. 😎 Are there any members you would like to give a shout out to, for the last year? I'll start;- @ryanbatc Ryan is always a calm, collected, positive person here on AVSIM. He never descends into sarcasm or belittlement. He's knowledgeable, measured and has a good sense of fun. But the real reason I'd give Ryan a mention is because I use about 10 or more of his stunning repaints that he's spent many hours creating, on fantastic aircraft like the Blacksquare fleet. Around 18 mont…

This story really hits home for me. Up until 2005, I went home from work this exact route for over 10 years. This young man (not a boy) was in a car with his father. He was already horribly burned, but still tried to save his father. Unfortunately, his father perished in the car fire. They were ground victims of the medical Learjet crash in Northeast Philadelphia back on January 31st, 2025. All six souls on the plane were killed instantly and to date, 2 people on the ground have died. The 10 year old young man survived. God bless the young man, all the souls lost and the human spirit! Here is a video of the horrific crash.

Coming to Prime Video.

It’s all about the money. Watch the entire video, it could save you money.

His credentials seem good.

I was just looking through various items coming up on my PC and a couple caught my eye, as they were recipes for Christmas treats. However, I gave up after 10 seconds. Why? Because they were ruddy videos. Am I one of a few people left who prefer to read instructions, instead of following pictures and listening to someone waffling on for 5 minutes over stuff that I could absorb in one or two at the most? Maybe I am just getting old. Happy Christmas.
