Flight sim is *pretty.*

Thought I'd run the #XPlane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision jet down to France today to try getting it into Courchevel (LFLJ) which is tricky. Only 1,759' long and you land uphill, takeoff downhill into a deep valley.

Rented a virtual XCub near there, bopped on down and it was an absolute BITCH to land there in real-world winds. Did 3 go-arounds.

So no freakin' way I'm taking the jet into there. Although many turboprops can land there...here is a PC-12 video:

Lakehopper looks like a wonderful casual seaplane flight simulator

Fancy a new type of simulator? How about flying your own seaplane? Lakehopper has launched into Early Access on Steam with Linux support.

I just published bevy_fs v0.1.0! It now features:
- Automatic chunk loading
- A heads-up-display in the jet
- A little feature to rotate the sun with HJKL
.. and much more

expect bugs 😅

Woke up today in Scotland (Tuesday in the EU) and thought some fresh Danish pastries sounded good, so I took a deadhead over to Copenhagen (EKCH).

No RNAV approaches so far here, all ILSs, but the #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet with G1000 handles them perfectly.

As soon as I parked, the ground crew moved in with their baggage conveyor rig. I guess they think the bags come out of my airplane's ass.

They just do things differently over here.
