It's great now that the team have satellite imagery to draw up all the airports in FS2020. So its obvious what is asphalt, concrete or grass as well as taxi lines etc compared to just a black and white airport map. I'm not sure to what extent they will add detail to the surrounds of the airport, like the car parks, trees etc. But since they are creating 37,000+ airports by hand, they will use default buildings to fill in where the buildings are, as well as other default models (other than the custom airports they will add). Plus I would imagine since there are so many to get through they...

I have only owned mine for a short time, overall the quality is really good much better than the Saitek gear and you can feel the quality. The bungee feel on the back pressure is very similar to what its like in the full size, but you need to replace the bungee as it stretches over time. Its worth buying the throttle quadrant which no matter what you fly it caters for jets with reverses and flaps. Pedals i don't know because i am unsure if they have released any ? I dont know how it compares to the like of the yoko yokes.

Trust that this has been an interesting and informative, insight read for everyone, as we move forward into the new decade of the flight simming life cycles. Definitely - yes - and I appreciate the time it must have taken to compile and write! :rockon: Adam.

Hi Pato I sent you a PM. Chopper_Nut is steering you in the right direction, however to clarify that direction I would recommend watching this You Tube video How to Edit Scenery.CFG in FSX This applies also to the FSX Steam Edition. See how you get on and PM back if you like. Cheers

Thanks for the links. The Honeycomb would be really nice device I would like to switch to. Unfortunately, the exterior form factor is "slightly" different from the Yoke cutout in my panel thus it would not fit. That's a real pity as the difference is minor - not sure why the developers didn't make it fit exactly into my (and similar) installations. Concerning VR, this MRTV thingy is really cool. In my mind, it's important to try a headset before buying it. And for those at the verge of entering VR, it's extremely important to get their own impression before byuing any one - some...

Been a while since I have been around here - been busy with real world flying. This new MS Flight Simulator has rekindled my simming excitiment - I am just over the such ancient ways of P3D and other current sims - the platforms are so outdated and the fact we are in 2019 and can only achieve moderate levels of performance with relatively average graphics has put me off things recently. But, this new one looks a game-changer. I was watching this video today on YouTube and saw this screenshot - does anybody else think this looks a little bit like Glenorchy area (top of Lake Wakatipu)?...
