Re: Highlights of X-Plane 12

I use Active Sky XP and am please with it. I like the enhance lighting, rain effects and 4-Seasons weather. I'd like to get in on that early release offer. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Re: MSFS2020 updates, where in the heck are they

Sorry for your frustration Paul. I tolerated Microsoft for MANY years simply because there was no competition...then came X-Plane. I will never go back to MSFS again. It is pretty but its flight dynamics cannot compare to X-Plane, and being a former pilot, that is much more important to me than &quo...

It is pretty old too being it was installed with the original X-Plane 11.

X-Plane 11 updates reinstalling Aerosoft Scenery

There were several Aerosoft Custom Scenery that came with X-Plane 11. London Heathrow - EGLL was one of them. When you download my EGLL WestWind Hub scenery, the Aerosoft version must be deleted (or moved to to other location). Whenever X-Plane is updated, it will see that Aerosoft Scenery is missin...

Re: FS9 Hub Splash Screen

We need more of everything for X-Plane. All the hubs have screen shots for FS-9 and FSX but nothing for X-Plane. Even downloading X-Plane scenery requires scrolling through a whole string of sim files that don't exist (FS_SE, Dovetail FSW, X-Plane 8 and Earlier) before you get to X-Plane 11. On that...

Re: X-Plane 11 Next Generation Lighting Model Preview

Comparisons of MSFS to X-Plane done by real world pilots and flight instructors choose X-Plane hands down for realistic flight characteristics, and that is why I switched to X-Plane. I have owned EVERY Microsoft Flight simulator through FSX. I stuck with FS9 to the end. I never liked FSX. I can't re...
