The tragic flight events of N515GK were recreated with the National Transportation Safety Board Preliminary Report (ERA23FA024) to help understand what went wrong on October 18, 2022. At the time of publishing this video, the cause(s) leading to the loss of control of this airplane are unknown. With Pireps and Airmets reporting moderate icing in the area, airframe icing is a strong candidate for this accident.

Hi Everybody, X-Plane 12 meets MSFS 2020

Come learn about the outstanding Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter aircraft, and its just as outstanding global manufacturing process. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

Hi Everybody, Today I'm hanging out with a friend of mine Pete, he decided to come spend some time in the sim. He's usually in the A320 (real world), but today after his real flight, we ran from Newark down to Orlando. We had a blast, hope you enjoy the ride.

Enjoy...

Hi Everybody, Been down the past week working on a couple computers, swapping my stronger server computer for my right visual. Now all three visuals run at 5.4GHz with the server running at 5.3GHz. I also had a video board go bad on me, one of my EVGA FTW3 3090s died. Funny thing is, it's on the server computer with all the graphics turned down, the demand on the card was nothing. The card is basically overkill for that position. Still have to figure out why navigraph won't connect to my I-Pad, sim link is installed and connect to XP12, yet no connection. Also, air manager won't connect to my Tablet, all I get is a black screen with the Z2d efb zibo mod h…

YouTuber Missionary Bush Pilot video of 24 Feb 2023 shows a challenging, scenic flight in his Kitfox to a couple of remote airstrips in Arizona, USA. Here we replicate the flight, but we take YouTuber Trent Palmer's Kitfox because it's better & because it's available as a very nice payware aircraft in MSFS. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

Hi Everybody, I've been updating my video cards the past week and doing some overclock testing on the Asus 4090TUF boards. Now I want to try and add the levelup series (600-700-800-900-900ER) of aircraft into the hangar. The only issue with exterior animations/lights I see is associated with the LevelUp 900ER taxi lighting, I'll look into that sometime today. Then it's on to adding the 3D rain effect into the new aircraft. X-Plane 12 is beginning to look amazing, looking forward to the addition of networking effects coming in the near future. Oh Yeah, 2023 looks to be the year of the flight simmer! 8-)

On 4 August 2018 a Junkers JU52 aircraft operation by JU-Air crashed in the Swiss Alps while undertaking a sight-seeing tour. The flight was operated by 2 very experienced pilots, both ex-Air Force & ex-Airlines, who had flown the route numerous times before over many years, & the weather was fine, & there was no mechanical failure of the aircraft. So, how could such a thing happen? Stay tuned. Hope you find it interesting. Cheers.

Wake Turbulence ON

A Pacific Southwest Boeing 727 Airliner & a Cessna 172 collided mid-air near Lindbergh Field, San Diego in September 1978. The Boeing was on downwind to land & the Cessna was completing ILS practice. All on board the aircraft died, along with some on the ground. The aircraft were destroyed, along with houses on the ground. As is common, there was a chain of events leading to the disaster, but one stands out on its own. Come see how such a thing can happen. Hope you find this interesting. Cheers.

Toccoa is situated in North Georgia and was used during WWII as a training base for the paratroopers. It was the setting for the first Band of Brothers episode. We flew our Mooney there to check out the Currahee Military Museum and the Currahee Mountain.
