Starting 2018 1nto the JET age...even with this slower commuter jet I find I must plan ahead an think faster compared to piston aircraft. Climbing out from PAAJN at 1500Fpm/250Knts, much quicker than the DC-6 Landing at PAFA, without reverse thrust on fanjet, I used all the runway to stop

Thanks David. Yes, and it is a pleasure to fly. This is for FSX and P3D. Highly recommend the 185S Skywagon series of aircraft.

This screenshot report highlights lighting in the flightsim world. Specifically lighting at night. I am running Orbx and Prepar3d in Win10, and still learning new things about simulator and scenery abilities to mimic the real world. This first picture shows the power of dynamic lighting in P3D V4 (maybe the other versions as well). The light on the sides of the buildings, storage containers, vehicles and as reflections of aircraft lights on the tarmac are from P3D. Airport pole, and building indoor lights are from Orbx scenery. Aircraft lights are from FSX/P3D. And now the Baron's lights are off. All that is left is scenery lighting. Orbx scenery and lights at night And now for the real surprise. Was flying online with Allan Lowson (our boss) on a Timberwolf multiplayer flight last Sunday. It had gotten dark in my sim, and I pulled up beside Allan at our destination airport and noticed that his aircraft was also simulating dynamic lighting even though he was not in P3D. His marker lights were reflecting on the tarmac. And to check if his taxi lights would actually light objects in front of us I turned off my lights and noted that Allan's lights were lighting up Troph's aircraft. Cheers.

Looks like you are getting there David.
Keep playing with the FMC and you will find out all sorts of goodies it can do.
Don't foreget that in real life jet flying you have at least two pilots to program and monitor, in the sim it is just you to do it all, the FMC is a very handy tool for safe flight both real world and sim
