Many times I have been refused a VFR take-of from airfields in the Sim, if visibility is below the minimum....now that is REAL Flight Simming!



Absolutely !

...one of the many delights of Flight Simming for me, is the recognition of various Cloud types and layers, Air Temperature and Humidity, (Dewpoint), and wind direction and speed, etc...

...anything to do with weather...

....all essential knowledge for safe flying...(and Motorcycling)...

...trust me...;)...!

Paul..weathering the storm... 8-)...!

I am always amazed at some of the weather conditions some of our Simmers fly in their Screen Shots...it frightens me... :o...!
.... ;D...!
