lived on both islands. So stunning to look at in MSFS

[@ZetaAquilaeSimulations]

Nice! I have visited both. What I was surprised by in Aruba was the arid landscape.

[@EdVonPelt]

Can you increase the sim rate of the MD-11? And if yes, is it stable at higher rates like the PDMG, or only can do x2?

[@ZetaAquilaeSimulations]

I haven’t done that but a few others said it’s relatively stable at 2x and even 4x in cruise and turns but not as good as PMDG.

@@ZetaAquilaeSimulations Thanks for the information.

[@kaeptnbaloo]

Beautiful! St. Martin does not have an ILS, right?

[@ZetaAquilaeSimulations]

Thanks! That is correct, it does have RNAV but I flew it mostly visual approach. There is a patch coming soon that will hopefully improve the pitch sensitivity on landing and the excessive trim.
