There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding the process of how to update Prepar3D. While the geniuses at Lockheed Martin have created a super easy to follow instruction manual, the confusion regarding this process seems to run rampant on social media. I’m not sure why really. Perhaps it’s the reluctance of reading the…

WorldFlight 2018 GBS Tour – Leg 5
Our tourists are once again on the move. The time spent in Singapore was certainly not disappointing. Only time will tell just how historic of an event which also took place while our travelers were visiting Singapore. Without getting too deep in the political weeds, I’ll just say that anything positive will certainly be a…
WorldFlight 2018 GBS Tour – Leg 4
The WorldFlight 2018 tour is progressing along nicely and from all accounts our wealthy travelers are having the time of their lives. Not sure what they enjoy most, the variation in cultural differences or the cuisine. Perhaps both. I suppose if I were able to participate in something like this I would certainly make an…
WorldFlight 2018 GBS Tour – Leg 3
I may have previously pointed out that some legs on this tour will be 100% fictional. Meaning, in the real world there are no known flights connecting the two cities or airports together. In addition, the airline I choose to simulate may also not officially serve either of the two airports, but the airlines will…
Live up America – FNO VATSIM Event

Ladies, Gentlemen and children of all ages….as I’ve often mentioned during my YouTube videos…I occasionally suffer from bouts of insomnia. I generally fall asleep quite easily, then wake up a few hours later with…
WorldFlight 2018 GBS Tour – Leg 1
Back in the day, long before the GBS YouTube channel…I would blog about my flight sim adventures. It’s really why I started this blog site over 10 years ago. As I began planning the WorldFlight 2018 GBS Tour, I spent a few days kicking around whether I would record any of these flights for YouTube,…
FSLabs Making News–Once Again
I made a decision a few years ago not to attempt to become a “Breaking News” blog site. I just don’t have time and I’m just one guy. Most of the flight sim related content I write about either has to do with my own involvement in the hobby or news/information about products I own…
