  1. No steps were missed provided the viewer can do basic math learned as a child to compute the total altitude loss. If they have that figured out, then everything else is identical.
  2. Thank you @lnuss and @PhrogPhlyer. There are a few videos on VORs out on YouTube but that has been a topic I've wanted to do for quite a while along with airspace and VFR ATC communications (someday). I may not answer every comment, but I certainly do appreciate your comments.
  3. Would you believe that vivid display (the lines on highlighting each takeoff path) took 5 hours to export the file? It was worth the headache and loss of time. It turned out being a very neat effect. Thanks for the nice comments!
  4. A valid statement. I have had individuals tell me that they learned how to do something flying a FS on their laptop. Not the best way to impress their instructor. @PhrogPhlyer Another true statement. When I was a CFI around 20 years ago, a student tried to pull back all the way on the yoke right after takeoff because he did it in MSFS. MSFS is realistic in some ways, but in many other ways, it is misses a lot of realistic features that cannot be duplicated on a home PC based simulator. P.S. the nose does pitch up after adding collective to take off in MSFS. Two clicks of "nose down" trim fixes this.
  5. @PhrogPhlyer Thank you. Landing on any of those helicopter pads in real life would be unreal.
  6. Where did I say Tower when discussing CTAF? I went back to listen and stated the tower frequency was used for CTAF when the tower is closed and when CTAF was shown on screen it says common traffic advisory frequency. Maybe I missed something?
