I had the huey flying over my gyrocopter and started to cause my gyrocopter to flip. it also started spinning my blades, i thought that was cool.

If im not lazy, look up an approach, look up an arrival, go VOR to VOR. But stoked to have steam gauge airliner on marketplace.

I raised my default view to 60% but if i hit shift keypad 0 it resets to 50%, shift spacebar to 60%. There are some planes where the top of the hud gets cutoff if not. Helpful when im using hotkeys to shift around the cockpit

Quick follow up, all bugs reported and fixes must come from microsoft. Slight bummer of it being a "first party" product An update is coming soon, but i guess report bugs to msfs team?

Running into a weird bug where if i start on a custom start spot the landing gear wont fully extend. if i start in a parking spot cold and dark or on the runway ready to go everything works fine. Only if i try to start ready to go or cold and dark from a custom spot. I dont get three greens and the gear comes out halfway. Also the emergency gear handle does not do anything, so you're pretty limited. Not the biggest deal in the world, but did take me awhile to pinpoint it being related to custom position start.

Plane taught me a valuable pilot lesson. The pitot tube at altitude displays IAS! But the mach number takes calibrations from the pitot tube and static port to give you TAS! I thought i was flying super slow, but then it was reading mach 0.90-0.95. Ah be darn pitot tube cant display TAS in less dense air. Took me awhile to figure out how to do long hauls properly and convert IAS to TAS at altitude.

So i was doing my flying around KEFD and there was someone flying a "Aerospacelines 377 NASA Pregnant Guppy". Wonder if they were using the fsx A2A captain of the ship payware in MSFS 2024? Not sure if FSX planes work in msfs 2024, but they were most definitely in the 377.

Thank you, i just stumbled upon a reddit post explaining the physics of it! Would of never thought of that

I have noticed wind blows my plane the opposite direction of the flag. If the wind sock is blowing left, my plane will drift right, and vice versa edit: Never mind, i just learned a physics lesson

I am confused, what is wrong with VOR and ILS? I fly steam gauge

Swear this is a repost? I use VOR with no issues. Rarely do i ever fly direct to a VOR. Rather i use them to get me to my next fix or VOR with a little bit of geometry. But i tend to pick most up around 45-55 miles, but i picked up GPT 100 miles out earlier.

I uploaded a scenery for fsx a few months ago and it had nearly 400 downloads. The majority came from simviation. Outside of the US and europe there are tons of countries where hardware is limited and FSX is still the go to simulator.

I wouldnt mind some MD to the marketplace. I wouldnt mind the Aerodynamics stuff to the marketplace as well. But one that i thought could join this list is the 377 stratocruiser. For all you prop heads and supper guppy fans.

In reality you only fly so many. I feel you gotta fight the "gotta have it" urge.
