![]() ![]() As soon as I’m on water, it becomes smooth as silk. I’ve tried a few flights from LIBP runway 04 as I’m very familiar with the area and I know all the landmarks, and it’s all bumpy until I’m past the city. I’m also not thrilled about it (to say the least) and I’m not sure why it feels like the turbulence just stops the moment I get past a coastline. My most pressing question is about the recent SU9 update, which I understand has added a new turbulence system that’s making many people unhappy. It’s also relatively slow, which is great for my main use case of sightseeing and daydreaming. Second, and this is going to sound silly - honestly, most of what I’ll say will sound silly to experienced pilots - is that it has a single control for the throttle, which is far less confusing than separate power and RPM levers like some other planes do. I obviously have no idea how to use the G1000 yet (I’ve downloaded the official manual though) but I’ll get to it. The live map on the second screen is also nice. First, it’s got everything in the same place and for a newbie like me, that’s quite handy. I’ve mostly settled on the 172, for a couple of reasons. To be clear, even though it’s going to make many people’s hair stand up in shock :), I’m actually fine with it being a glorified arcade game rather than a full-featured sim. ![]() ![]() Still, I have quite a few questions and I hope that someone can share some tips on what I can do to learn more. I’m not always perfectly clear on what I’m doing or supposed to do, at least I’m not leaving a trail of destruction behind me if I mess up! I did however do my homework: I completed all the in-game training, read up and watched videos, and so on. As I mentioned in my presentation post, I’m a complete beginner and I’ve been enjoying FS2020 on my Xbox One Series S via Game Pass for a while, albeit pretty much just to look around the world and enjoy the view, not so much to get a “realistic” experience… if anything, because I would end up crashing the plane pretty quickly. ![]()
