Ahh… how? Do they have helicopter physics in MSFS 2020?

I don’t think so.
If I had to make a guess I’d say that they used scripted phantom forces to achieve the result. Hard to get it realistic that way though.

Hey…if you really want to emulate being a corporate pilot…I highly suggest this add on. BUT…for maximum realism, you need to start your engines, taxi to the penalty box (or just sit in your plane on the ramp) for…oh…I don’t know maybe two hours on a stormy weekday. If it is a hot summer, you gotta run an engine (don’t say it @PaulRix!) and right before your release time you do the math and realize you have to go back to the ramp to get fuel and lose your slot. Hopefully, nearby hotels are modeled so you can go grab some duty rest and try again tomorrow!

(These are all distant memories of some corporate flying interactions with Teterboro - things have gotten much better with the MEDEVAC callsign… :rofl: )

PS - I highly recommend White Castle on Thanksgiving Day - the stomach cramps hit me about over BIGGY intersection on the way home. I was on the verge of an explosive decompression if you get my drift…

Oh…I forgot…depart after 10PM and set your printer to print off the noise violation. Collect them and hang them in the office wall of shame…

That is such a realistic rendition of KTEB that I’m starting to get PTSD just looking at the screenshots!

A sack of White Castles and 8000ft of cabin altitude leads to a lot of avoided eye contact.

The one guy we carried (a flight nurse) that had diarrhea in our little Citation is celebrated relentlessly…

Does the NTSB check the dinner situation when analyzing plane crashes?

This question is half serious, very gross and also quite disrespectful towards crash victims. But I had to ask, sorry.

Middle Eastern food from downtown Doha, that was a welcomed change from the everyday chow hall. It was delicious, but took down half the deployed squadron with the bubble guts and colon blow.
Our crew was down for a week and even after the DNIF was over, still plagued me for another week. Luckily we redeployed home soon and flew an empty jet back. Ventilating the jet using the sexton port came in handy.

I thought the food in town had a safer reputation than what was served on base there.

Hotfix is out, info here:

Stuff in it

General

  • Fixed the flaps issue that was introduced in World Update 3
  • Fixed the photogrammetry for Southampton and Portsmouth

Developer mode

  • Fixed Scenery Editor crashes when loading BGLs with Projected Meshes
  • Fixed BGL backward compatibility issue with light rows

If you altered any files as a workaround then the suggestion is to delete the aircraft folder and let the Content Manager write a new one. Info on that here - [HOTFIX] Flight Dynamics Bug - News & Announcements - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums

Free A330-300, with general release tomorrow (or join some discord, as is the toll nowadays). It looks like you can’t have the A32NX at the same time, so not sure I will go for it. Good price though. :slight_smile:

The Salty simulations 747 etc had the same compatibility problem, though some say it will now work with the A32NX.

I have not bothered to find out if that is correct yet. https://discord.gg/pcz26AEK

By the way…
