MSFS 2024 sold 245K copies on PS5 so far
I should have used a smiley of some sort. Of course I am aware MSFS will never outsell a game like GTA, lol. The use of the word 'doubt' was a sarcastic understatement 🙃

True, but I'll doubt any MSFS release will ever reach such numbers.

Classic Aircraft Simulations Piper J-3... A jewell ?
That radio, mounted on the back of the front seat, is that a realistic option? Or is it something the developer has made up for sim purposes?
- Kodiak 100 (MS2024)...Is it over?

AAU 4: Avidyne IFD 540 & 550 by WT coming with SU 5
Although I definitely appreciate the variety offered with the introduction of these units, I am still hoping for digital 'six pack' replacements with WT quality, like a Garmin G5 (thanks A2A for doing this) G500 or non Garmin equivalents. That way aircraft developers can better replicate upgraded panels.

Good essay on how ground physics still feel Mehhh in MSFS
I agree. There should be at least an effect to the left, but you don't need any right rudder input at all... X-Plane on the other hand has completely exaggerated this effect, as the plane veers straight of the runway in an almost 90 degree angle if you don't use rudder, which also is not quite realistic 🤔 I don't know about other sims, but the ones I use indeed still leave a lot to be desired...

Black Square Caravan Pro First Look
Could all be user error? If not, share your views with the developer. He's open to suggestions to improve his products.

I get the impression he doesn't like it 🤣

Yeah, it gets that nice nostalgic FSX vibe 😜

Mistakenly Purchased Wrong G650
That's a bummer when such a thing happens... There is a dedicated RealityXP forum here: https://www.avsim.com/forums/forum/767-the-realityxp-user-to-user-support-forum/ Unfortunately the developer seems to have abandoned his products. I'm afraid you might not get any support...

Chaseplane is really awesome…
Agreed, I couldn't do without it. So much more intuitive than the default camera system.
-
I just can't keep up ...
This. The amount of excellent freeware is astonishing. You can spend hours browsing Flightsim.to to find many, many wonderful free additions to the sim.

A2A Legacy RG550
Agreed there are already options for the C172 available, but none are modelled as well as the A2A one for P3D. Even the WBSim C172, although a good representation of a C172R/S, does not accurately model the startup procedure for that type of 172. A2A had it nailed back in the day. I am still hoping for an upgrade of their older work to MSFS 2024.

A2A Legacy RG550
That looks mighty interesting as well, with the glass cockpit variant. Also, the interior looks like it's might be a different or newer version? The center console looks different. Back in the day the Realair Legacy was one of my favorites. Great to get two different types back in MSFS!

I'll bite. What's the bet?

A2A Legacy RG550
Just read on their Facebook A2A Simulations announces the Accu-Sim Legacy RG550, coming Q2 2026 😁 What a pleasant surprise! https://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=79663

Is P3dv6 a worthy upgrade
That might be because it looks gorgeous 😉 Regarding fidelity MSFS 2024 is a very mature simulator, with its native flight planner and the advanced avionics, just to name a few. Aircraft addons, especially from the likes of A2A and Blacksquare, are very good and they are certainly not inferior to P3D aircraft. To each their own of course, but there is no way I would return to P3D because it has more fidelity, that's definitely not my experience. But in case of a return, I would always go back to v5.4, which is the version that suits me the most. There are just not enough addons available for v6... I still have faint hope LM will surprise us all with a staggeringly great v7. There is no way one can have to many flight sims 😁

Aircraft addons expected in 2026 - please add
Maybe even two for this year, according to Lewis from A2A. The coming year will be great for GA 👍

MSFS 2024: Sim Update 5 Beta (1.7.6.0) Out
Probably some BETA glitch. I seriously doubt they would do this... Back in de day FS5 was sim heaven for me. Textures to represent the ground! How can that be garbage? 😁

Dont know about you guys?
Ok, whatever you say. I'm not trying to police or dictate, I was only expressing a feeling I have about this bantering, which sometimes can be pretty annoying. Cheers!

Dont know about you guys?
That's what you think. I don't. The way you put it above seems you're making fun of everyone preferring MSFS 2024; or you are joking, I can't tell. Lol, ok then, although I resent the name calling. Have fun with your MSFS 2020.

Get over what exactly? Can we stop this childish sim war please?
