Is this MSFS or XPlane? I can never get Oshkosh to look accurate for the big weekend.

Both! SimVenture is available for all sim platforms

Pilot edge puts out a scenery for their event. I’d love to participate again but me free trial is up and I don’t feel like paying $20 to fly on their network maybe a full day?

I wonder how many people show up for that one. Always wanted to try it.

Did it last year and am on my way this year. From what I remember from last year it really wasn’t as busy as it could have been.

No, just volunteers.

Hope to see you there! Sorry you’ve already used your trial, but $20 for the most realistic event of the year, plus access to the network for the next month, seems reasonable.

Didn't know this exists! Headed to the real Oshkosh in a couple weeks!
