Full Circle: A Return to Position and Hold

Posted on June 26, 2025June 26, 2025 by admin

A Return to “Position and Hold” In just a few months, I’ll be celebrating 15 years of blogging about the flight simulation hobby—something I’ve truly enjoyed every step of the way. Back in those early days, only a handful of bloggers were writing about their simming experiences. Today, I find myself one of the last…

Posted on June 9, 2025May 29, 2025 by admin

Forty years ago, I graduated from high school and left behind my East Texas hometown, moving to Central Texas to start a new chapter. I moved in with my uncle, and together, we launched a satellite installation business. Later that fall, I began my college journey. The summer of ’85 was legendary—not just for me,…

Reader Question – Bredok3D A380

Posted on April 17, 2024April 17, 2024 by admin

I realize this is the third “Reader Question” post I’ve made in recent weeks.  Yes, that’s true!  I’ve obviously been holding out waiting for the release of the PMDG 777-300ER as that will be a day-one purchase for me and within a few days I’m sure I would write about it.  So until that happens,…

T-Minus 8 Days and Counting….

Posted on April 12, 2024 by admin

Today I’m having a relaxing semi long-haul flight out of the new iniBuilds OMDB Dubai International Airport enroute to London Heathrow in the Boeing 787-9 by Horizon Simulations and flying as British Airways.  While in the real world BA operates this flight in a Boeing 788 or in a Boeing 777-200.  Well….I had been doing…

Where Art Thou PMDG 777?

Posted on March 3, 2024 by admin

With the arrival of the recent Fenix V2B2 update, the next question on everyone’s mind (including my own) is when will we finally see the PMDG Boeing 777 for MSFS?  Of course I know only what you all know. If you’ve been following along with the development process you know that Robert Randazzo has provided…

PMDG Egg Nog

Posted on December 9, 2023December 9, 2023 by admin

If you routinely visit the PMDG forums to catch up on all the development news regarding the 737 and other projects, then yesterday (Friday, 8 December) you may have noticed the tease which Robert Randazzo gave us in the “Other Stuff” section of his update.  Here’s that comment…. What does this mean?  Well…if we think…

Reader Question–Paying for Aircraft Liveries

Posted on March 4, 2023March 4, 2023 by admin

Let’s get right to the question and to the point on this particular topic.  The question today comes to us from a fellow flight simmer named George.  Hello GrizzlyBearSims, Like you I’ve been around the flight simulation community for a couple of decades.  I’ve noticed a recent trend since MSFS has come onto the scene…

Reader Question–FPS Concerns

Posted on February 1, 2023January 29, 2023 by admin

One of the most common questions I receive from readers of my blog is regarding FPS improvements in Flight Sim and in recent months (for obvious reasons) these questions are concerning MSFS or Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020).  Just in the past few days I’ve received three different emails asking for pointers on just how to…

The Joy of Freeware

Posted on January 16, 2023January 9, 2023 by admin

Once upon a time, there was an abundance of various freeware add-ons available to the flight simming community.  During the late 1990’s and very early 2000’s the amount of freeware (as compared to payware) was huge.  Actually the amount of payware content was actually pretty scarce.  Of course I’m talking about the time period when…

Reader Question–MSFS Auto-Update

Posted on November 27, 2022November 27, 2022 by admin

I have another reader question to explore today with everyone.  It’s a rather interesting one and honestly it’s one of my very own pet peeves about Microsoft Flight Simulator.  Here’s a snippit of the email I received a few days ago.  Hello, I recently stumbled onto your blog site and found your content to be…
