Re: France VFR

I have quite a bit of VFR France... The newer versions are pretty good but resource heavy. If using P3D don't bother with the older stuff as it has to be knife and forked in and the quality isn't great. The downside with VFR France is that it is an expensive way to cover the whole of France. I've go...

Also can induce nausea if flying a bit too enthusiastically. Rick - first Saturday in Jan okay? We can sort out a handover via PM...

Re: Anyone using VR headset with success ?

Yes and no. I've used VR successfully in AFS2 and also XPlane but not yet P3D. Also pretty good with VR specific software via Oculus. If you can wait until the first weekend in Jan Rick you can borrow mine for 3 weeks.
