Well, I enjoy it. It’s certainly not Super Carrier but it has some charm I think. Just noticed this today (look closely)…

Is that austin?

Yep. And each Tail-callsign is “AM”. Austin’s ego aside the detail on the boat is amazing. There’s even a portrait of Admiral so-and-so hanging at the entrance to the bridge.

He certainly isn’t “normal”. A normal person would not have built X-Plane though. I’m thankful for that, though I also suspect I am glad I don’t have to work with him.

One of the things I like about my days working at home is I can turn on the sim and keep working.

For a moment there, I thought you were doing work on some in-cockpit VR tablet…
Took a while to see what was real and what is on screen.

I wish I could do the same but I’m like a 90s pc loading Falcon: I run out of working memory before I can properly get started.

Umm…how did you do that?

No big secret, that’s two computers with an unintentional optical illusion. My desktop is running the sim, and I have my work laptop on the desk in front of my home monitor. Normally I plug the monitor into the laptop, but I wanted to fly today. I think the boss knew it because I got called into the office for a two hour meeting that could have been an email or a teams chat.

Ah gotcha. My phone is a postage stamp. I thought you had a plug-in that allowed you to view your desktop within the sim. When you do everything in VR, this becomes the warped way your brain works.
