Decided to take in some of the sights of the homeland, with an early test flight of MS' new sim. It's pretty gorgeous. One thing I'm impressed with is the flight model here, with a gentle bump from the turbulence over the coast here heading to Christchurch.
I still recall a flight into Christchurch in the 90's on a Whisper Jet, which was so rough, I smacked my head on the plane peering out the window. There was a cheer when we finally landed, and the pilot made the point of shaking everyone's hand as we disembarked, what a champ'.
Looking forward to some breezy landings at Wellington, which were such a part of my youth traveling to my grandparent's in Christchurch and back on 737's.
Stay tuned for more MSFS2020 adventures!

A clever little survey by the ED team was released last week, inviting users to rate various weapons and systems on the aircraft being developed in order of personal importance. This may help the ED team fine tune their energies as they develop the aircraft based on feature popularity or demand.
I had a little break this weekend, and headed north to fish, relax, etc. I had internet, and thanks to those of you interacting with the channel, was able to read and interact a little with those following the last two popular videos about 3rd party developers. More on that to come!
