Hello to all my wonderful readers. As we say goodbye to Spring and a reluctant hello to Summer, I’ve made the conscience decision to cease purchasing add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Of course, this excludes the PMDG Boeing 777, PMDG Boeing 737 Max and probably also excludes any other 3rd party aircraft that might…

Reader Question – Go Arounds on VATSIM
