Guess who's back on his BS?? This time, I'm flying Just Flight and Thranda's new Archer III (for X-Plane 12) over lush ortho-painted scenery of Big Sky Country, courtesy of Map Enhancement, and looking at it all using Tobii Head Tracking. The confluence of these elements make me feel like I'm experiencing a brand new sim. Also, I share another story proving yet again that I may just be, in fact, too stupid to live.

Just a Minor TFR Violation. Happy 4th of July!!

AeroSphere Simulations released a Piper PA28-181 pack in three variants: the Archer III, the Archer LX, and the Archer DX. To get acquainted with each, I flew to three of my favorite local airports, swapping planes each time. Low wing love, baby.

A fresh, modern render of a beloved older plane, and TWO high-altitude airports surrounded by custom scenery? Sign me up :). By these, I mean flying Thranda Designs' Pilatus PC-12 DGS Series from Sedona to Telluride Regional, both crafted by X-Codr Designs.

A quick and simple hop from the Delaware River to the Susquehanna, reminiscing about Flight Sim World along the way. -

Still in the Leewards, but this time at Princess Juliana, getting virtually checked-out to land at Saint Barts. After a fair bit of rain, I grab me VSKYLABS' Tecnam P2006T and set off to justify the endorsement. Along the way, I opine about the island sceneries and the P2006T...all to a groovy island beat.

X-Plane 12.1.2 introduced a custom render of Saint Barthélemy Airport (TFFJ). Shortly afterwards I installed my Honeycomb Charlie Rudder Pedals. Sounds like an opportunity to check out both at the same time.

Upon receiving my long overdue Honeycomb Charlie Rudder Pedals, I threw together this SUPER QUICK unboxing video. Apologies for the wind screwing with the audio. I was really excited and just wanted to get this out.

Both Laminar Research and TorqueSim updated their wares, so I had to see how they improved them. Over the course of flying to New Haven to check out some fresh custom scenery, I point out how busy the sky can be when using LiveTraffic, I raise my glass to a fellow aviator dealing with a medical situation, and get a complete surprise when I'm in Long Island Sound. But before any of that, I open with a ground-level tour of StevePHL's render of Philadelphia.

This log entry is all about Gutenshmeis' custom scenery, seeing how he released a render of Montauk. Come along as I detail why the airport is special to me and why this version of it stands apart. We'll launch from his Block Island scenery and fly there in the Just Flight Archer III. And, man, did dusting off this ol' bird trigger some feels about the state of simulated Piper planes. Anyway, once we get to Montauk, we're gonna transition into tourists and see all the little goodies Gutenshmeis placed into the scenery. Think of it as a virtual vacation and enjoy

Come along through the crowded skies of Long Island and over the splendid vistas that make up Central New Jersey for a flight bookended by light profiles of the user-customized airports of Republic and Trenton Mercer. My altitude and navigation weren't as precise as I'd have liked, but the landing more than made up for any slackage. 10 out of 10, would recommend :).
