VFRguy Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Well, I did it. I downloaded 6 of the 7 free updates with 0 problems. The 7th update was an airliner called A32NV. I have 0 interest in airliners. I am too old to learn all of the stuff needed to operate such a beast. I have more than I can handle with the little boys. My beloved Baron 58 and the DA 62 are my love for over 90 percent of my flights. That is about to change a little bit because there is a lot to look at with all the candy that these updates offer. I need a slower aircraft to cruise around these big city's in. I did a test flight around D C with a Piper Cub but it was till pretty fast. In FS10 there was an ultralight that I cruised around with. I flew real slow and low in the Grand Canyon. I landed on that big rock down under. I landed on 5 or 6 aircraft carriers around the globe. They are great for landing just about any place you want. There is one in the Marketplace that I have been looking at for $10. The only update that I checked out so far is the North America update. It should be a fun day tomorrow.

g7rta Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Hi Glen, you seem to be enjoying yourself. Glad its all working well :) Have you thought about flying helicopters? There is an excellent H135 available and it's free! https://flightsim.to/file/8970/airbus-h135-helicopter-project Regards Steve Intel I9-13900K - Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX - 64Gb DDR5 5600Mhz - Asus RTX4090 ROG STRIX 24GB 3x 43” Panasonic 4k TVs - Corsair RMx 1200W PSU - 2 x 2TB M.2, 2 x 4TB SATA III and 1 x 4TB M.2 SSDs.

VFRguy Posted June 12, 2021 Author Share Posted June 12, 2021 Perhaps, For now I have to stick with fixed wing props. If I ever get bored, I could head in that direction. THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one in the Marketplace that I have been looking at for $10. Guess you mean the Drifter Ultralight by Ant's Airplanes for FSX, that one was really great anyway. Before buying the $10 contraption by Asobo from the Marketplace, have a look at the Aero-Works Aerolite 103 by Nemeth Designs. Sure it's a bit more expensive, but a joy to fly, and reminds me of the Ant's one much better. Happy sightseeing flights!!

Well worth it.
