CertifiedSimPilot@lemmyfly.orgtoflightsim@lemmyfly.org•Do you fly with a virtual airline?English
2·2 years agoI think I boot up the simulator too sporadically to join a VA, I’ve read multiple VA’s that require you to fly at least once a month. Plus it feels a bit limiting in a way? Not being in a VA allows you to fly where ATC is on Vatsim and wherever in the world you want.

1·3 years agoProbably yeah. Shame, hope they release it eventually

1·3 years agoCan’t wait for this one! Extra performance is very welcome. And the extra variants are definitely nice to have too!

1·3 years agoWow, this looks scary…
Is the full video of which the picture was taken available somewhere? I’ve tried looking for it but I can’t find anything

2·3 years agoI’ve seen a video about this plane by Tom Scott years ago. But I only recently learned this is an A310. Learned so by browsing the liveries of the IniBuilds A310 for MSFS, and there it was! It’s a very cool variant for sure.

2·3 years agoHad one go-around, but the landing was good for the weather I’d say. I was kinda surprised, the performance calculation showed me stopping at the end of the runway, but I stopped one holding point before the last one even! (G4 instead of G5)
Anyways Volanta showed it as a -335 fpm / 1.07G, so I’m happy

Be sure to right click the image, and copy the image URL, instead of the URL of the webpage. So in case of Imgur, the URL should look like i.imgur.com , instead of imgur.com

5·3 years agoGood to know that posting from Volanta servers works flawlessly! Great way to reduce storage on the lemmyfly servers I’d say

Kerbal Space Program@vlemmy.net•Since KSP2 does not yet have heating, I decided to try to get into low sun orbitEnglish
3·3 years agoUpdate for @sergih123@lemmy.world and @alehc@lemmy.ml:
Falling into the sun is a bit time comsuming and finnicky. Try to keep your speed low when you approach the surface, and keep time warp to the lowest you can bear.
The surface is at around -30 km. It looks like this:

Descending further… Long trip. As you approach the core your speed will pick up rapidly. When you’re at the core, you’ll get slingshotted out of the core at a ludicrous speed, in my case 22248.0 km/s. Interstellar travel before it’s implemented?Anyways quite satisfying flying out of the sun’s core at a fraction of the speed of light. Can recommend!
… (picture soon, it won’t upload)

1·3 years agoAs far as I’m aware this is free to keep forever!
Played a little this evening. Performance is a lot better than before. Especially noticeable when launching from the launchpad. Where it froze for a second before it just chugs along smoothly now!





Is this added to the base game, or do you need to do some tricks to get this to work?
