Today I took my longest flight yet – almost three hours in the air. I wanted to go to Martha’s Vinyard (KMVY) because it is a destination I’ve flown to many times before in past iterations of Flight Simulator, but I didn’t want to take just a simple direct flight there. I have VFR scenery […]

Someday I’ll want to battle […]

Certainly you can set FSX to pull down and then update current meteorological conditions, but then who wants to fly in rainy weather when they […]
