Too bad it's aggressively VFR-only and, as far as I could tell, completely

it.

It suffers from a 2008 version of the 1940s tendency to try to make airplane
panels look like automobile dashboards. It didn't work then, and it doesn't
work now. Airplanes are not cars, and shouldn't try to act like them.


Outside of that, you ****ing loved it, right?
