MSFS? I’m loving the Top Gun: Maverick challenges haha
Yes ! It keeps me sane while this thing happens , I wish I had a little bit of a better set up, but that’s for another time. I still use a stick, throttle , and rudder pedals. But it’s super entertaining.

I recommend picking up a VR headset and playing VTOL VR. It is so much fun. You can get an Occulus Rift S for about 250-350 USD and as long as your computer is mediocre, you're all set.

I actually strongly discourage this. If you’re a pilot and use VR it can reset your vestibular. A month ago was my first flight in about 3 months during which I was learning the F18 in dcs with a oculus quest 2. 10 minutes into my first tail wheel lesson it was like i was learning to fly all over again or I had done acrobatics (I’ve only done them once before).

The Avenger Program utilizes a lot of VR

It’s a human factors problem with the oculus at least. Your vestibular system, inner ear with the fluid and hairs is coupled with your vision. When they are
mismatched that causes nausea and other problems.

Maybe with the Oculus, I don’t know all the details. But the Navy is actively using VR headsets with Avengers at both Whiting and Corpus

Oh well I haven't done enough flying to really see the affects, I just do the VR for fun

Does anybody know what time of the day they tend to post results? Not that it'd make a huge difference in the stress of waiting but at least if there's a common window to look forward to, that'd be nice.
