I love this plane and have been using it for my VFR travels. I haven't seen this happen yet, but I'll watch for it and let you know. Tell us more though. How long does it take for this to happen? Is anything specific going on when it disconnects? Any common denominators that can be matched up? Night? Day? Weather of any particular type? Location?

thanks JJJ

Those look great. And that aircraft is a honey to fly. I never knew about Corporate Pilot. I did however play FS95 with a keyboard back in the day and loved it.

The desert is a magical place. Just sayin.

Looks great David! I like the overfly of JFK.

Those are beautiful shots Jan. How do you get screengrabs like this without all of the instrument and flight data that are coming out in my shots?

Beautiful. I love all the classic birds you share!

I agree with you about the instruments and such. I'm not sure how to hide them though. Any ideas? Maybe i'm not in the correct external mode? I tried showcase but I couldn't seem to move around from one position to take pictures...

can't go wrong with the Frontier nature tails. Great shots David!

stay on target...

Wow. Those are money.

Did some minor travels around Norcal, and ended up at a familiar spot. I haven't learned how to use the GPS yet, but it doesn't matter. Using my knowledge of geography and landmarks, I had a glorious VFR flight. Found schools, colleges, hospitals, and churches that I had frequented back in the day, and the ability to do that in a sim is an experience I've never had. I frankly doesn't understand the sarcasm regarding the label of "sight simulator", as if it's a bad thing. When compared to my last post about San Francisco, the level of detail is simply stunning to me. I have much to learn about the sim, and the aircrafts, and I welcome it all.

Is this only happening when opening saved flights?

Keep up the good fight!!

How long does the beeping last? Does it happen right after lifting off from runway? Which A320 are you using?

Beautiful shots! Looks like a great day to fly!

This seems excessive for sure. The only thing that takes time for me is launching from desktop, then launching a flight. But neither takes 4-5 min...

That last shot of all the classics lined up is money!

Thanks Bill! And I’m more than jealous that you been to one of my bucket list items.

Good to see you Michael. I’ve noticed so far that there is a huge learning curve, at least for me, and I’m probably going to have to get that manual (that should have been included) so I can get a feel for what I’m doing. I don’t find the interface and flow to be very user friendly where learning is concerned, but I’ve only spent a few hours on it. Today I took off and used AP to navigate around Alaska and Oregon and it was fun to see places I know exist, while watching the light change into dusk. It wasn’t an experience I’ve had to this point.

That red paint absolutely pops!

That's a beautiful bird. I wonder what it sounds like!

Good work! Nothing like hitting the runway to a new season!

Here is my first MSFS2020 Share. I'll admit to having no clue what I'm doing yet, and since my joystick and the program hate each other, I use autopilot and the heading button to navigate. But until my new stick comes in about a week, I'll admit to being hooked. This is a wordy post, but I have come with a gentle suggestion: When sharing a thread with screencaps, tell us about the scenery you are posting! This a great way for us to learn about a place we may have never heard of, and where to find it. From Wiki Adak (/ˈeɪdæk/, Aleut: Adaax), formerly Adak Station, is a city located on Adak Island, in the Aleutians West Census Area, Alaska, United States. At the 2010 census the population was 326, up from 316 in 2000. It is the westernmost municipality in the United States and the southernmost city in Alaska. (See Extreme points of the United States). The city is the former location of the Adak Army Base and Adak Naval Operating Base, NAVFAC Adak. Because of its naval aviation past, Adak has an unusually large and sophisticated airport for the Aleutian Islands. The airport is currently operated by the State of Alaska Department of Transportation. Complete with an Instrument Landing System, Adak Airport has no control tower and two 200' wide asphalt paved runways at 19' elevation. One runway measures 7,790' long while the other runway measures 7,605'. Alaska Airlines operates twice-weekly Boeing 737 passenger jet service from Anchorage via Cold Bay. At present, flights operate each Wednesday and Saturday, weather permitting. Occasionally, extra seasonal flights are operated to meet the demand of the fishing season. Adak is located on Kuluk Bay, on Adak Island, in the Andreanof Islands group of the Aleutian Islands Recording District, and in the 3rd Judicial District. It lies 1,200 miles (1,930 km) southwest of Anchorage and 450 miles (724 km) west of Dutch Harbor at 51.872° North, 176.636° West (Sec. 10, T096S, R195W, Seward Meridian),[5] near the Russian end of the arc that makes up this volcanic island chain. Flight time to Anchorage is 3 hours or longer, depending on weather. Adak is the southernmost community in Alaska and on the same latitude as Haida Gwaii in Canada, and Brussels, Belgium. It is less than three degrees of latitude north of the 49th parallel, which forms the western part of the land border between the Contiguous United States and Canada. Adak first appeared on the 2000 U.S. Census as a census-designated place (CDP), although it previously was the Adak Naval Station from 1970 to 1990. In 2001, it formally incorporated as a city. As of the 2010 census, Adak was the only city in Alaska to have a majority Asian population (171 of 326 residents). Akutan and Kodiak have Asian pluralities. =-= One Year I was doing a tour of the Pacific rim, and need a stop in between Japan and Anchorage for fuel. I found Adak on the map, and have been fascinated ever since. Anyone ever been there? Sorry for the on screen data about my flight. I haven't learned how to hide it yet! :)

I like it David!
