Flight sim flight from Sacramento International to Las Vegas! The clouds are being fun today #XPlane12 #FlightSim #macOS

A United 737-8 climbs towards a deck of high clouds, with a few holes that sunlight streams through, illuminating very small patches of foothill land.

I'll miss my #HOTAS / #HOSAS / #SIMPIT / #DIY #Discord channels starting next month.

Anyone knows some alternative Spaces on #Matrix by chance?

I'm aware of the tiny matrix.to/#/#hotasdiy:matrix.o channel with 21 members. That's something I guess.

Edit: Now we're getting somewhere: matrix.to/#/#aerospace-space:h

Acronyms:
HOTAS = Hands on Throttle and Stick
HOSAS = Hands on Stick and Stick
SIMPIT = Simulation/Simulated Cockpit

LOL. A plugin(?) I use with X-Plane 12 crashed to desktop as I turned on to the localizer. I'm also using a beta version of X-Plane 12. So who knows. Ah well. T'was a good flight in any case #FlightSim #XPlane12

X-Plane 12's ATC got me on the BAYST1 procedure and vectored me to 07R downwind pretty dang late. So hooray, reverse ops at LAX in the sim worldI #FlightSim #XPlane12

Cloud surfing at FL290 this morning from KSFO to KLAX. We'll see if X-Plane 12's ATC is also using reverse ops at LAX this morning. I decided to let its ATC choose my arrival procedure #XPlane12 #FlightSim

I found a little magic value in the code that made terrain chunking unnecessary ๐Ÿ˜… Luck for me, as the implementation of chunks already caused some weird glitches and tiling issues. The water looks better now, I added a hospital as a landing pad and a spawn button to spawn the scene. It'll be part of the start menu. ๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Good sim flight from SFO to Seattle Intl, though when I filed my flight plan, Departure claimed the HAWKZ standard arrival didn't exist. I just went along with it. Seattle got it straight once I neared Portland and nicely vectored me in to HAWKZ and ILS for 16L. First screen cap is departing SFO via NIITE and second is landing at SEA #XPlane12 #FlightSim

The spoilers are up and thrust reverses are engaged. Terminal N can be in in the background on a cloudy day, as the sun rises and casts a red-orange glow upon the clouds.

@Av8rdan, I accepted your cure against daily politics and - after a longer break - I jumped into my Zenith CH STOL 701 aircraft in the sim and flown some patters and a short route into the sunset in centre : LHBS - LHGR. No autopilot, I control the plane in every seconds.

As there will be general elections in April and the campaign is very nasty, I will possibly escape to frequently during the next weeks.
