What's your favorite airframe + livery combination? I'm really digging Northwest Airlines recently, and I think it looks great on the super 80

Well we all know that it will still take a lot of time before we see the NEOs in the sim and that we might hear almost nothing more from them, but it’s nice to know that the CEO update is about to be released and that most of their devs are now focusing on the A32Xneo

My friend and I decided to create an entire snow system for the Fenix A320 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. This mod features animations of snow being cleared from the windows, compatibility with GSX, and snow-melting logic triggered by Window Heat. Keep in mind that snow impairs flight performance, so compatibility with anti-ice systems is also a feature. Our goal is to make the A320 feel more "alive" as winter approaches. We hope you enjoy this mod, and we welcome your feedback in the comments.

yes I was headed straight for it in pic 2… for science ;)

Firstly, I completely respect that content creators are free to create whatever kind of thumbnails they want and it’s everyone’s choice whether we click on it, so it’s not really a DEEP issue.

But why are we in an age where flight sim is looking as close to realism as it ever conceivably has but people still feel the need to use AI slop for a thumbnail? Your sim already looks mind blowing but you still need to click bait with a false representation?

Especially since DLSS5 has been implemented by a lot of content creators, I’m seeing more and more of it and I cannot understand the thought process of going to the extra effort when a screenshot from your sim would look miles better.

Ultimately yes I get that it’s to pull in more clicks and views but it just seems a waste when we have such good looking sims already.

All in all, it was a good experience. There were some problems with speech recognition, and the tower gave me my IFR clearance a second time before I entered the runway.Intersting thing was that i was put into a holding pattern on arrival because of an unresponsive plane. Too bad the price is too high i will take a month here and there but no way i'am getting the whole year

Flying a fast(-ish) jet into Campo de Marte (SBMT) which is located the middle of São Paulo, is so strangely exhilarating.

It's a VFR airport, so unless you look the weather up ahead you might end up diverting. The only published approach (on Navigraph) is the visual pattern, so you have to be on top of your game to spot the airport and the various cues. But the high-quality photogrammetry around São Paulo makes it all worth it.

Truly a golden-era for flightsims IMO.

Built this real quick for practicing checklists, muscle memory and getting away from the keyboard and mouse. Their ecosystem brings software that pushes the right plugins with button actions to Microsoft Flight Simulator or X-Plane. Works flawless.

Seems the drag calculation bug would be pretty devastating for premium addons that manages weight properly. Just curious on how is it going? Everyone flying like a rocket for the time being?

I’m intrigued by this new release, the modelling seems good. But I can’t find any mention of an official GSX profile on their store listings. Does anyone know if there is one?

I bloody well hope so, it’s 2026 and any high end scenery absolutely needs to have one.

The rain effect looks poor whilst playing the game – is there a way to fix this, or is there a graphics mode you could recommend? I want to role-play in the game and have it rain, but it’s raining so lightly that it doesn’t look very realistic at all.

The manual was posted to their discord yesterday, here’s the link

sunset takeoff + bonus night shots

Simulated a chartered ANA flight from RJAA to RORS and vice versa, which happened around 2021. The inibuild A380 is truly an absolute majestic plane.

Two days ago FSReborn reported a bug in the drag coefficient causing their products to massively overspeed even at idle power. Now many other developers and even Asobo themselves has stated that their aircraft are affected by it.

I truly cannot fathom how a game breaking bug affecting every single aircraft in MSFS2024 still makes through months of beta testing and sent out to every user. The sim is worse today than it was yesterday.
