Good evening ladies and gentleman this is your captain speaking. Welcome aboard flight 860 to San Diego, we'll be leveling off here at 18,000ft for the remainder of our flight, please note the seatbelt light is not turned on but while you are seated we ask you keep those buckles belted.
Flight attendants will be by with dinner service in a moment, we're looking to arrive on time at 3pm local time, weather is looking like sunny skies so we hope you packed some sun screen
Thank you for flying Air Pacific and we'll talk to you when we're fixing to land.
*laxatives start to kick in and I begin violently shitting myself* >now what?
Mason Howard
Please note we have restrooms located in the back of the plane for our economy class customers. Let a flight attendant know if you need assistance out of your seat
Flight attendants will be able to stow your baggage for this flight but please let them know before take off next time so we can appropriately check your bags
*pulls nintendo switch out off the pocket* BING WAHOO BING BING BING WOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOW
Robert Lopez
Ladies and gentleman, the seatbelt light is now off and you are free to move about the cabin. Please be advised we can encounter turbulence at any time so if you are in your seat keep that buckle belted
>a torrent of hot, liquid diarrhea waterfalls down the aisle towards the rear of the plane, sweeping the terrorists off their feet and carrying them away
Henry Robinson
THE PASSENGERS AND PILOTS ARE LAYING DOWN WE ARE IN CONTROL OF THE PLANE NOW
the lights on the left hand side of the runway are there to give assistance for knowing where you are on the glide slope, 4 red = too low, 4 white = too high, 2 white 2 red = on the money
Brandon Mitchell
Glide slope is the last thing I need to figure out, I just realized the other day I can have the autopilot line me up
Robert Nguyen
IF IT AIN'T BOEING I AIN'T GOING!
Ayden Taylor
you did good if you just recently started, just pay attention to the PAPI and your airspeed and you should be golden, if you get too high or too low raise or lower the pitch gradually. it doesn't take long to overcompensate

Is FSX worth the upgrade over FS2004? I've heard FSX runs much worse than 2004, even on capable machines.
Ryder Roberts
The guy who caused it was KLM Chief Test Pilot too.
Be careful with that landing gear handle Ivan, or else you'll have no brakes back home.

Hey! I'm a doctor! Well, I'm actually a chiropractor, but that's even better than a doctor! What would a doctor do, call 911? I can align her chakras and set her spine right!
What flight sims do you guys recommend? Also for VR folk is X-Plane 11 good?
Jonathan Smith
you see user, I'm not some pub shitter and DCS isn't my first sim. In this image you can see the gear lever is properly placed in the center OFF position. I have over a dozen FSX aircraft that have systems like this... thus doing the same thing with the tiny MiG's gear lever is easy as pie as I've never once encountered that problem since I got the damn thing years ago.
How do all hijackings not end like this? Like with the French hijacking where they were planning on flying it into the Eiffel Tower. They just watched as the special forces slowly rolled up to them. Why not start killing hostages the second you see security forces coming at you? The threat of killing hostages is your only protection in those situations
Joshua Stewart
SOMEONE PLAY THE GAME AND TAKE OFF FROM WYCOMBE AIRFIELD IN BRITBONGLAND. QUICK. I WANT TO SEE IF I CAN SEE YOU FLY OVER MY HOUSE.
Leo Carter
Yes but with OrbX England with Trees HD. Default anything in FSX is shit
I haven't been able to play sims for a while but I've been interested in Dead Stick as it's been in development, any people here heard of it? Bush Flight simulator with a bit of a trading/management mechanic. The sound of it makes me think of something like Spintires but for flight sims.
Because it then forces law enforcement's hand and escalates the situation from "maybe you can get out" to "you're leaving in a body bag". As for that instance it wouldn't have mattered, they weren't going to let that plane off the ground period.
Brayden Campbell
0 hours on end of basically nothing is half the fun user listen to music, walk around and stretch, watch the world go by plus Chicago/Great Lakes/Appalachians can be fun
picrelated is the entire African continent and across the Mediterranean, Europe, and the English Channel
when ATC gives you a new frequency, acknowledge and tune the new frequency, then never check in. ATC won't drop your flight plan, and you can check in when you're ready to descend and it'll work just fine
It's someone who actually understands how to fly a plane irl making fun of people who are just playing a game but pretending they're hot shit.
Brandon Howard
>Main gear touches down, you see him slam the stick forward lmao this webm
Colton Gutierrez
I was flying in heavy weather and was sick of popping back up
James Watson

Charles Miller
>Was considering joining the Canadian Air Force >Fast track program because everybody is old and retiring >Get a tour of my province's base at Cold Lake >It's a fucking dump >Pay is shit even if you manage to make it to the higher ranks >Possibility of not becoming a jet pilot but some gay ass helicopter pilot
Think I'm just going to save up the $20000 or so and do that 30 minute MiG flight in Russia to get my fix
Okay, i reread this over edited memetext and its just some fucking casual exposing his retardation.
But saying 99% of DCS players are drooling retards pretending to be hot shit is hyperbole. There's probably a fair percentage of casuals (myself included, i just lack the time and patience to get deep into it, i still fly and know my way around my F-5) that overestimate their capabilities. But the most praised modules will always be full fidelity earlier gens (and the hog)
>But saying 99% of DCS players are drooling retards pretending to be hot shit is hyperbole. 80%+ guaranteed picrelated is some fuckhead in a pub server that tried a taxiway takeoff 5 times.. 3 times crashed in this exact spot a 5,000' runway right next to him but he just couldn't be bothered to carefully taxi his Su-27 over to it. Bitched on TS the entire time about how the game was broken and why it was so difficult.
Where the hell do I start with flight sims? Which game has the best tutorial for someone totally ignorant of flight outside of arcade games?
Julian Rodriguez
Microsoft Flight Simulator, has a whole knowledge base and specific guides for flying each aircraft. Hardware all you need is a logitech extreme 3d pro
steam version is fine, no mods required don't get any mods on Steam, that's the gimped version of the genre www.flightsim.com www.avsim.com this genre is close to 40+ years old now.
Do NOT play DCS, it's a total scam that lacks basic features every other flight sim has, the devs are shady as fuck and they nickle and dime you for features as basic as a PNG gps Download Falcon 4.0 BMS or Il-2
Hey do you have a dynamic campaign yet? How bout your playable AWACS, or your ATC modeling, or your ground radar, or your non-spreadsheet flight models, or your non-fly-by-magic AI, or your missile-modeling? >20 year old game is a scam and abandonware. I think you meant to reply to the DCSfag
>Playable Awacs Clicking waypoints is not really flyable awacs >ATC Modelling BMS isn't much ahead on that, you don't even have MODE 3 transponders. >Ground Radar No aircraft so far had AG, it's coming with the hornet, and the Viggen has AG radar implemented already >Non-spreadsheet flight models All aircrafts have PFM/EFM, only mods are relying on lookup tables now, and the C-101, that should receive EFM soon >non-fly-by-magic ai Did you know that player flares in BMS are 10% more effective than other aircrafts? And that how you do in the dynamic campaign affects how well ground units perform, which is absolutely retarded ? >Missile modelling Granted, but it's improving, the AIM-7 is performing much closer to reality now
Really, the only thing i miss from BMS is the dynamic campaign.
Jaxon Stewart
so don't?
Jaxson Sullivan
You are literally admitting BMS is overall better, even slightly, and yet you choose to shill out $60-$80 per "module" for a game lacking in all those features Why? Is it sunk-cost-fallacy? It has to be sunk-cost-fallacy
Cameron Torres
>6 kts GS What?
Joseph Myers
DCS is improving now at a much faster pace now that 2.5 is out, while BMS devs are stuck on their high castle ignoring glaring issues in the game.
Easton Reyes
>sunny skies in San Diego Excuse me? This is sunny?
>DCS is improving now By charging you more money for more modules that should've been in the base game? Wowowow what an improvement
Leo Sullivan
Nice F-16 avionics and lookup table flightmodels
Hunter Thomas
>estimated time enroute: 12 minutes >actual time enroute: 14 hours I bet he had it on slew or something. maybe a time change after takeoff
Cooper Taylor
I really like planes and I love games like Ace Combat and Battlefield, but I never bothered to play a flight sim. I've heard good things about falcon 4 BMS and DCS but the manual sizes is, for a lack of words, scary as fuck anything a beginner can start out that won't take more than a month to learn how to turn on a plane? a "light simulator" of sorts?
Evan Parker
read the thread dude
Jordan King
FSX
Julian Allen
You learn how to turn on a plane in 15 minutes. Then few hours more to use complex weapons and that's it.
Alexander Foster
damn i was supposed to be on TWA flight 800...
Jack Green
are there any helicopter niggas in here whats a good helicopter sim
Why do dcs fags always try force their simshit to everyone?
Joshua Perez
You came into a sim thread to ask this question... why?
Camden Roberts
Don't start fights in my comfy flight sim thread please.
Wyatt Rodriguez
Ladies and Gentlemen we are beginning our descent in to Cozumel International and should be on the ground here in about 20 minutes. Please finish up any work with your electronics, flight attendants prepare the cabin
Is the new il-,2 any good? I want to fly some comfy warbirds.
Chase Cooper
The very best.
Jace Butler
captain can you please go faster? I'm going to miss my connection
Ryan Mitchell
We'll try to get you to the gate as quickly as possible, in the meantime please let a flight attendant know where your connection is and they may be able to contact the ground
Alexander Myers
whats the point of aerial warfare without the combined aspect of it?

So when does the "woop woop pull-up pull-up" start?
Bentley Garcia
at whatever alt you set it to in your UFC
Jack Davis
Why the fuck should he tell an attendant if you're directly communicating with him as is, you fucking telepathic freakshow?
Ethan Edwards
I can't wait for all the friendly fire in DCS next week.
Lincoln Bailey
It's been delayed, March 21 HOT SHOTS
Blake Taylor
Because a law in 1915 and unions and something about Islam I'm just a glorified bus driver I have to deal with the public all fucking day and traffic on the way to work traffic on the way to the runway traffic over the radio constant traffic traffic traffic Just wait until I go private and won't have to deal with you shits and I'll be flying instagram models around and they'll suck my dick just for the fun of it and it's a 3 hour flight without any other dick in sight they can't help it
