    I experienced a similar situation flying from TNCS (island of Saba) to TNCE (island of Sint Eustatius) with the default Cessna 172. Landing the plane was easy (as long as I ignored the LSO)!

    I'm finding X-Plane 11 very refreshing after years of using FSX and lately P3D. If I had to pick a flight sim to fly without addons; X-Plane 11 would be my first choice by an extremely large margin....

    Two weeks ago, I finally got a custom built rig (i7-8700k, GTX 1070 OC, 16gb RAM) to run P3Dv4. This machine is just adequate for running P3D; but with absolutely no AI, boats or car traffic.

    I can't comment on the V2.5 to V3 update, but I can say that V3 is the first Prepar3d version that sounded enticing enough for this long time FSX user to give it a try.

    Overall, I'm very happy...

    As one would expect from a simulator based on Microsoft ESP and not FSX. I took one look at ESP (when it was first announced by Microsoft) and realized it was not aimed at the same market as FSX.

    At first I thought, doesn't P3D have its own forum here at SOH. Then I realized that it does have its own forum, but with P3D being such a limited market the post would probably not be noticed.
