Re: I think I'm going to switch to X-Plane for PE

Thanks Keith. I think the ATIS information will be very helpful. I took my experience as a lesson in expectations vs. reality. I checked on the transponder and can confirm that the Flight1 GTN750 has some issues for some A2A users. Someone on these boards went to the trouble of re-installing the sim...

I mean, earlier this week I presented a design review to a room full of electrical, mechanical, and software engineers, and wasn't nearly as nervous as I was sitting in a simulated Cessna!!!
