Guys guys!! Today’s Sunday. Too much unkindness and suffering in the world. @Mike_CFII_MEL I want you to look at @Litjan and say bless you my friend. @Litjan you tell @Mike_CFII_MEL thank you for making the world a better place by all your contributions. Friends always. Do it and do it now!!

That’s very interesting. I’m not on discord but would like to read their reasoning. Could you direct me or at least provide a time frame where I might search for that discussion?

Yea, I got the updater to work last night but to me it still seems much simpler to just reinstall the jet from my account. With the updater I still have to register the plane again which means looking the serial number up in my account so might as well just reinstall since the new install will include the update. Just save your livery file. I’m speaking of Flight Factor so fortunately this is not necessary often.

Gee buddy, buy ya books and send yuan to skool and I gotta XPlane everthang to yer. Any ful knows it’s 400 737s lined up en a row.

Speaking of updates updating FF aircraft with the x-updater-win is a B. Can't seem to get my feeble mind around getting the updater to work. I just end up reinstalling the aircraft to update. There's an update now for the 737-400ER.

IMHO yes. But referencing price I did buy it on sale last Christmas. The entire package. Both the 767 and 757 by FF are cool planes. I haven’t bought the T7 yet because the long haul mission is not my forte. A leap ahead feature like Tollis and FSL have would be the deciding factor. There are plenty of real world routes under a couple of hours in 757s and 767s.

Over the past few decades many lives lost due to air crews degraded stick and rudder skills or loss of situational awareness because of over reliance on Otto. Failure to aviate before they navigate or communicate. Last words, “now what’s it doing?”

Strange how a cat will disappear for days then come back. And they always have that wise look of knowing something.

LOL, brings back memories. In a frontal collision your legs served as the only means of energy absorption. Living in Central America as a kid they used to use the micro bus for mass transit. The inside packed with people and everything including live chickens strapped to the top.

Not that I’ve noticed.

Couldn’t agree more. No fun, what’s the use?

I see a budding market for that flywheel exercise machines. A compact resistance machine. I wouldn’t mind trying one of those. This could be to Artemis what Velcro and tang ( uh, the orange juice version that is) was to Apollo.

10’ 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1, ignition, APRIL FOOLS😂 gotcha folks. We’re really going to do it in August. Come again.

PJ needs to get X-Camera, simHeaven X-World and XPlane map enhancement. This would answer most everything he bought up in comparison. As far as remarks about default aircraft, well, they are default aircraft. I think they are pretty good and a couple of them measure up to some pay ware I have in P3D. Since adding the above addons I can't see any advantage in trying any other sim.

or relocate mid-flight if it's already running. I find this very interesting. So this could serve as a leap ahead feature on a long haul flight with the let’s say for example the FF777?

So Cessna made a DC6. Very interesting. Learn something new every day.

Would enjoy seeing some snapshots if you took any.

I use Google map one. I don’t know if any one would be better than another. Someone else might have a comparative opinion. Be interesting to hear.

That’s interesting. Why would it concern you? Any ideas how AI would negatively affect Laminar Research?

That man is brilliant. A couple of weeks ago I watched a video he did about the stock market and actually adjusted my thinking on investing. He is one of those souls similar to Elon Musk who has a gift, talent and discipline to mentally perceive in the abstract then but their perceptions into practical application. I sincerely hope he never tires developing XPlane since I’m sure our user base is quite small compared to MS sim. We don’t forget and do appreciate his talented team as well.

Thanks coastaldriver. The ballon’s I can ignore, what I hate is the fuel and service trucks slicing through my aircraft when parked on a GA ramp. Anyway, thanks for the answer.

Do Gateway airports automatically come in XPlane 12 updates or do I have to download them myself from the Gateway website?

Watching that made me sleepy

Sharper resolution in the US and the rest of the world I assume. This actually IMHO makes details, especially around towns stand out more. Really when combined with simHeavn|Xworld makes XPlane 12 come alive. With XPanes flight physics hand flying my Caravan was a real joy yesterday. It’s only $5 USD for a months subscription and $40 for a year. Well worth it.

Beautiful. For a low subscription price I now have MSFS scenery with XPlane12 flight dynamics. I gladly recommend.
