Re: Let's talk about the PilotEdge Expansion!

I would think that even having the basic sub for piston pilots who only fly in ZLA will become more immersive as we'll see more jets coming to LAX and actually have to be separated from them around the class B. I am psyched!

Re: Hawkeye Flight Services - SoCal Ops on PilotEdge

Wow dude you have an incredible amount of money in FS Economy! I am still ferrying passengers around in a Piper Cherokee 180 trying to get enough money to buy my own... Your list is epic! Can't wait to get the Commanche in my library. Thanks for letting us rent your a/c at discount.

Re: Flying Penguin Club

There's a Cherokee at 46CA right now for $50/hr dry...run down there and get it... Thanks for the tip.. On my way! P.S. for David ~ I figured out where my confusion of the P28A came from... The Piper Model name is a PA-28 Cherokee 180. The ICAO aircraft code is P28A.. I went for a flight the other ...

Derp.. I knew that.. Appreciate the heads up.

I guess I'll continue flyin' around on my own. Can't wait until I don't have to pay $150/hour dry for the ole' P28A.

Re: Drone pilot gangs KBNG

I had considered the scenery file as why they aren't perfectly on the taxiways/runways. I'm sure you're right. I do wish they would taxi and/or move about the airport a little cleaner. I just flew the same flight, this time much more cautious at Banning, but they got me... again :cry: . This time I ...

Drone pilot gangs KBNG

The drone a/c are a really nice touch to the uncontrolled airports in the PE service area. However, there are 3 twin props at Banning Municipal (KBNG) that are more nuisance than anything. They approach and land at what I would estimate as maybe 120-160 knots, engines off, and they don't actually us...

Re: Never again on PE - share your mistakes

Well, I've had exactly two flights in PE, both VFR in the A2A Piper Cherokee, the most realistic trainer aircraft model I've ever found in FS. I would like to preface this story by declaring my complete unfamiliarity with socal airspace, and busy airspace in general. I earned my private pilot's lice...
