  1. I could if it was like the real one, to start it you would need GSE to start the aircraft.
  2. Pretty much have decidecd to give up on MSFS2020 until they make some significant changes. One of whch is seperating PC from Xbox.....they need to decide, is this an arcade game or a flight simulator.
  3. Visually the sim is real nice, a few issues that are minor but will be easily fixed in the future I,m pretty sure. Some aircraft, not all are however lackng as far as dynamics, not that big of a deal and could be fixed with some calibration and tuning, but considering the some of the "Pilots" fly by using an Xbox controller may have some bearing on that. My biggest complaint would have to be the constant updates that in some casess greatly affect the add ons and the lack of add on aircraft by 3rd parties (maybe because of to many updates that affect them, not cost effect to keep making an add on compliant with constant changes). However with the right rig and controllers set up correctly it's not a bad sim/game overall. I think alot of "pilot" got so use to the stagnet FSX sim that many have a hard time with the learning curve of the sim itself, not so much the actual flying, we have to all agree that FSX was out there a long time....we just got use to it and how to deal with it, we got real good at getting around the file system and tweeks.
  4. This is what happen when you try to take a potentially decent computer flight simulator and make it also work as a arcade console game....who would of thunk it?
  5. My 1st choice would NASA's WB-57, 2nd choice would be one of the Lockheed U-2 variants.
  6. A new corridor established in southern Kansas will allow testing of non-military aircraft at supersonic speeds. Gov. Laura Kelly announced the Kansas Supersonic Transportation Corridor Thursday. The corridor runs for nearly 800 miles along a stretch from near Pittsburg, Kansas, in the east and past Garden City and Liberal in the west. Wichita, which bills itself as the air capital of the world, lies at the heart of the corridor. Planes would be allowed to travel at speeds up to Mach 3 in the corridor, but would be required to fly at 39,000 feet high.

  8. I'm finding it's get faster and less of a hassle to drive out to the airport, pull the aircraft out of the hanger, fuel up, do the walk around, and all the checklist.
  9. Seems like the last time I bought a real aircraft it came with an Air Worthiness Certificate, it's a shame we don't get the same deal here. LMAO
  10. Really?....this is all you bunch of poindexters have to complain about.....Why not call it Microsoft Flight for Xbox One and Windows 10, like it was intended.
  11. I have been using Microsoft Flight Simulator since early 1990's (Flight Simulator 4.0 I believe) I can honestly say this is not by far the "buggiest". That being said I'm thinking of hanging in there until the Xbox version comes out, provided it ever happens, I have my doubts. Then we will see I am 68 so we will see. I have been flying over 40 years, but thiis will be my last "aircraft" type...digital LOL
  12. I personally think it was a ploy to get people to use Game Pass on Windows 10 PC's. I don't see it ever coming to Xbox console, If they do it will be very limited and without the use of freeware. Anyone else have any thoughts or insight on this?
