AvSim causing Mozilla Firefox to crash
Christopher Low replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Hangar Chat
Does it update automatically to the new version? I use Firefox at home and work, and it seems to be OK at the moment. -
City Update 6 And Local Legend 15
Christopher Low replied to HiFlyer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I am a bit disappointed with the hand crafted version of EDNY Friedrichshafen. Quite a few of the Gaya Simulations hand crafted airports in previous updates have 3D terminal interiors, but unfortunately the main terminal and other buildings at this airport have those parallax interiors that I really do not like. I know that many of you think that parallax interiors are fine, but they destroy a lot of the immersion for me. They just look fake. -
Aerosoft and LimeSim announce Lukla Airport.

No change in volume of the 146 jet engines after touchdown (from the cabin view)? Is that just a recorder thing? -

The handcrafted airport is EDNY Friedrichshafen. -
Payware Airports that need updates

Burning Blue Design were once SIM720? -
Payware Airports that need updates

I do not have a problem with the rest of Carlisle airport. It's just that when I see other airport addons with much more accurately modelled static aircraft/aviation museums, I expect to see this done everywhere. It spoils the immersion for me when stuff like this is missing. -

Another one...... Gaya Simulations ENCN Kristiansand - there is a reason why they are called Runway Starts, and not Hold Short Starts -

I assume you mean that the airport has terrain issues? Is this with PG on or off? -
Active Sky coming to MSFS
Christopher Low replied to carlanthony24's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Yes, but PMDG have proved in the past that they are reluctant to implement something unless it can be done properly. -
Over and above the airports that need adjustments to the runway centreline markings, these are just a handful of improvements that I would like to see..... RD Presets EHRD Rotterdam - I do not have this airport, but the official trailer and other videos indicate to me that it needs a significant upgrade. The main terminal looks rather drab from what I can see, and the internal detail (if you can call it that) is utterly bare and lifeless. Not even close to the quality of their more recent efforts. I wanted version 2 of this airport in P3Dv4, but it falls short of what I expected to see in MSFS. UK2000 EGNC Carlisle - I mentioned this during beta testing, and....whilst I understand the reasons for not doing so, I absolutely think that the external Solway Aviation Museum aircraft and exhibits should be accurately modelled. MSFS is a next generation flight simulator, and using what are (to be honest) pretty basic and unrealistic default assets is not what I want to see in payware addons. Those articulated truck models also need a major overhaul. MS/Asobo EIDL Donegal - Not strictly a payware addon, but I would pay good money for an updated version of the main terminal with a beautifully modelled interior. Just a personal preference. I know that some of you will think that I am bonkers I am sure that other AVSIM members will have a rather large collection of items that they would like to see improved in existing payware addons, so fire away!

I am what could be termed a "lazy flyer", so autopilots, autothrottles and NDs are a basic requirement! The increased level of automation gives me more time to enjoy the scenery....and let's face it, looking at the gorgeous scenery is a rather large part of the immersion in MSFS. That being the case, I am really looking forward to the JustFlight Avro RJ.
