To counter the stay-at-home order I took a local flight this afternoon, KAPA to KBDU.
I flew my Piper Arrow III, I took the out of the way route. -

Orbx is working on a high definition Florida scenery add on for X-Plane. Who else is excited about this? I wonder how quickly this is going to melt my graphics card!
I am happy with the Ortho scenery I put together, a long time ago, for Florida with high detail around the airports I was very interested in at the time. Having the detail that this preview shows is wonderful and I am looking forward to trying this when it is released.

There is a lot of hype around MSFS 2020 but I like the way X-Plane looks.

Are you considering flying around the Miami area in late January and early February and want to follow the restrictions real world pilots will have to endure? I'm tabulating sites and information that may be of relevance related to the security restrictions placed for the 2020 NFL Super Bowl. Feel free to add to this list.

Has anyone experienced this? How was it and would you recommend it?
“Our new winter hotspot — the Runway Chalet at The Pool Bar — is a cozy 1960s après ski-themed winter getaway, complete with a vintage fireplace! The heated and tented rooftop bar serves seasonal cocktails (try the Idlewild Hot Toddy: spiced rum and hot apple cider garnished with a cinnamon stick) and warming fare. Fondue, anyone?”

Forbes reports that the FAA is looking into BlackBird's method of business. I think this will be interesting to see how Black Bird fairs.

I have been flying the (X-Plane 11 default) Baron 58 (G1000 with REP) with the Honeycomb Alpha yoke and am having trouble trimming the aircraft. I am not sure if this is just an issue with the plane or the combination of plane and yoke.
I am unable to get it trimmed so that it holds altitude without having to have constant hands on the yoke. It seems to always want to climb or descent ever so slightly. Is this normal behavior?
Has anyone else had this problem with their Alpha yoke?

There are numerous talented designers who are putting out top-notch products for our sims. With the Christmas season just around the corner and the sales that may occur what are you hoping to acquire this year?
With the “reality” add-ones that enhanced so many aircraft flight performance getting such a good reception I feel other developers are now baking in better flight dynamics into their new products that the add-ons may not be as necessary moving forward. Are you looking to move away from some of the big name players to many of the smaller newer shops that are boasting the better dynamics as a feature of their new products?
I for one am looking at the new T310R from Milviz as well as the new Take Command! Hot Start TBM 900. Both would be great additions to my hangar.
