You must be wrong about the bugs- can you prove to me that bugs exist? They
never appear on MSFS.


Aha. MS has a patch for that. Bugs 2.0 - it even simulates the side
tone you hear when airliners xmit G

All microsoft products have bugs silly.

Yeah... Microsoft products NEVER have bugs! Ask Mr. Gates.

In the real world, bugs don't cause your airplane to reboot.

Actually, didn't that happen to NW_PILOT not too long ago, while he was
a thousand miles from anywhere?

Every time I fly one of my real airplanes, I get bugs on the windshield and
wings. I'm confused about this because MSFS doesn't have bugsplats on the
screen.

windshield?



You need to tick the 'No Bugs' check-box before departure. :-)

Now THAT'S funny!

Come to think of it, if I turn the realism settings all the way down, I
can fly my Slowdowner from HFD to Keflavik on 52 gallons, in perfect VFR
all the way. If I get tired, I'll simply hit "P" and take a nap. I'll
wake up, clean up, and land fresh as a daisy!

Why didn't I think about it sooner? Make sure you tell NW, no more
special permits, stacks of paperwork, or special ferry tanks!

Thanks, Larry!

You could link MSFS to a teletransporter and beam yourself wherever you were
flying too. That's a high-priced option to MSFS, but, what the hell - unlike
MX, you work for a living, so you're LOADED!!

Is that what they mean by a Check List?

What is wrong with my real airplanes? How do I avoid getting bugs on the
windshield? There must be something wrong with reality, because it doesn't
happen in MSFS. Yet, it seems to happen every time I fly in the summer.

I know that it can't be happening, because my monitor never has any bugs
on it after I play MSFS. So, what is wrong with reality?

I don't know about bug splats, but my monitor has coffee spurts...
