fs2ff VS msfs2fltplan

For a sim, I prefer MSF2020 because of the real world scenery. As a VFR pilot, I can fly at my local airport and see the same home depot building where I make my base turn in real life. I have a a high end system (5900X, KP 3090) and use a Reverb G2. You can also hook in Garmin Pilot or Foreflight into either sim and use it as you would in the plane: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff/releases/tag/v0.1.13. While the sim helps in some areas can hurt a little in others. I had reinforced some bad habits by sim flying that I'm still trying to break in real flying.

Foreflight is easy to get working. There are a couple options but I use this one because it also shows the sim traffic: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff

ForeFlight, connected to FS2020 via https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff

I use Airmatre connected via FS2FF

FYI out of all of the apps I tried FS2FF works (https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff). Strange that it (Garmin Pilot) likes some and not others.

You can do that with MSFS 2020 as well you just need to run another app on the side. I use fs2ff

A free solution is the FltPlanGo app (a free EFB app for actual pilots) + the msfs2fltplan utility program to inject the simulated GPS location https://github.com/musurca/msfs2fltplan (I tried the official FltPlanGo flight sim utility for this and it didn’t work for me, but this script works great).
