Hi! I really love your videos and I use them to really get the chill vibes and relax: 1) You're not constantly overtalking throughout the video 2) You're talking in a very chill mood. They're the best for my anxiety and for having a very nice cup of coffee after work. Thanks for the amazing content!
Hey bud, cool vid. From a 55 hour pilot working towards his CPL, may I give you a suggestion? Anticipate right rudder when you begin your take off roll, as the plane will almost always yaw to the left when you throttle up (unless the prop spins counter clockwise but that's pretty rare these days). You can pretty much always add it together with throttle unless there is a really strong crosswind from the right. And add even more again when you rotate. This will keep you on centerline for the takeoff roll and also after you get airborne. It is good habit, as although this runway was pretty wide, smaller width runways aren't going to be so forgiving (think bush flying especially). Plus you don't want the wings dipping when you just get airborne because there is a risk of a wing strike. Once you get some altitude you can ease off the rudder and let the plane "weather vane" into the wind. A little right rudder on the landing would have been perfect too! Yeah my hours aren't high, but I am glad to finally be able to apply real world experience to MSFS. This isn't criticism because I am still learning myself. Just my thoughts. Enjoyed the vi either way.
Fun fact: This is a “Fire Boss”. The water drop system isn’t the pipes out the back, that’s the overflow system. The “gates” that release the water onto the fire are in the bulge underneath the plane. Despite being the bottom of the tank, the gates can open and close quickly enough to drop as little as 20 gallons at a time. The “Fire Boss” is converted from a base Air Tractor in South St. Paul, Minnesota.
Don’t take on water until you get closer to the fire - keep the plane lighter until you’re closer. That saves time and fuel. Water weighs more than fuel, too.
Love the game, too bad the atc is a AI thats not 100%. I also get the problems with the ATC not working properly but i get punished for that... Great to see your channel has grown so much over the years! Came in with the City skylines era!
GREAT flight. I like that you skip the LONG taxi's to and from the runway etc. Makes for a smooth video yet we still get the effect of the mission! !! !!!
This summer there was a fire near Denver and for a few weeks we had two CL-415s and a DC-10 running laps all day. The scoopers made a pattern with a nearby reservoir and put in 20-30 drops a day. Looked like a monumental amount of work but was so cool to watch.
That looks like a lot of fun. I know there are a lot of complaints but I installed yesterday and am really enjoying it, no crashes or bugs so far. I also turned my cache up to 100gb so I think that’s helping with the terrain loading
Good job man❤ Just a quick tip cuz i see you getting the left torque effect when trying to fly straight, you need to keep on the right rudder from the point you set the t/o throttle
I heard the tornado missions are called "Weather data collection" and are gated behind the multi engine endorsement, it definitely would be nice to get more specializations though, like firefighting for helicopters
You're playing with a controller and rudders are hard to use well because of how small all the movement axis are. You might want to try adjusting the sensitivity. I find about -.6 makes them more controlable with the short travel range of the triggers. I often tweak the pitch and roll down a ways too. (-.55 to -.6) You'll still get the same range of motion at full control deflection, it just takes more movement to make small inputs and keeps you from overcontrolling. Spend some time tuning it and you can get very precise inputs with a controller.
I am loving the career mode. It will be even more fun when the menu bugs are fixed, especially in VR. Cannot wait to try these missions, as I only just got my taildragger cert. Have my first heli cert but the missions are not giving pre-flight instructions for me yet, so i am holding off on doing more helicopter stuff for the moment.
Thank you! Honestly don't have a crazy setup! Haha just use a Thrustmaster Hotas One, Xbox Controller, and the PC has a 3070 RTX, 64 GB Ram, i7 7700 Intel Core Processor!
if only i didnt see other reviews as negative as per graphic and internet streaming resource, i probably get it day one, i think im gonna just have to wait a little while until iits stable anyway so fun video to watch
I saw a tuber play a tornado mission, so they are indeed available! It required twin-engine certification. For some reason, those weather missions do not show in the initial list though.
I love the style and formatting of your videos! Normally I don’t watch flight sim videos, I just play the game. However I just found the exception. Good video length, no talking the entire time, and gets great shots! Love it dude 😎👊
This is really cool! Does anyone know how long it takes to get to the part where you spray the agricultural fields while flying that yellow plane in the msfs sim preview? And what steps do you take in order to get to this point? Im very interested in doing this and i was just curious about the whole thing. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies. And thanks for the content as well. Happy Flying:)
Agricultural Aviation takes a decent amount of time to get to but you work unlock the paths based on how you want to get those careers and such so I'd say a good 6 hours give or take!
In this game, is it possible to turn off some of the cheater things like the blue lines in the sky and things that aren't realistic? Also, how are the helicopter in this?! That's what I'd buy this for, primarily. Thanks and have a great day!!
Ahhhh..super. I got refunded for my Aviator’s Edition and in the meantime I’m trying to collect as much info as I can before deciding next year (after numerous items get addressed by the dev teams) before deciding whether I want to invest in this or not. Thanks for the reply and looking forward to more vids. It will help me ponder things in the meantime even though I don’t have it. 😊
Fun fact. With wild land fires you typically don’t extinguish them at all. If they are tiny you might, but realistically they will let small fires burn and see if they sort themselves out. But you don’t put out big fires, you contain them. So a crew will be on the ground in the fires path clearing trees and brush to get rid of the fires fuel, they will dig ditches and trenches to replace the grass with dirt, they will soak the surrounding area and may start a controlled burn which is where you start a controlled fire. Stuff that’s already burned won’t make good fuel for a bigger fire so it won’t spread to that area. And they will use water bombers like the AT fire boss ☝️ to soak the surrounding area and make everything wet so the fire won’t spread to that area. The fires burn so huge we don’t have the resources to actually extinguish them
Everytime i fly this mission the plane drops the water on its own without me touching anything like one minute after scooping to 100% fill. If anyone knows what im doing wrong or if its just the game let me know.

Of course it had to be in my beloved Portugal, aka Fire Hazardal 😂
Very enjoyable video!
Its not Portugal, its in the north of spain
Dude, I hate watching videos where people play games but you’re the exception. You’re actually kind of funny! Keep up the great work and content!
Haha welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying 🙂
Exited to see more career vids and to watch this channel grow good luck
This channel's bout to be HUGE
🙂 I appreciate the support! Thank you
First time seeing your channel huge advocate of msfs 2020 and I’m loving your videos of career mode man keep it up definitely liking and subscribing
Good vid good cuts in the video. Love it ❤
Don’t take on water until you get closer to the fire - keep the plane lighter until you’re closer. That saves time and fuel. Water weighs more than fuel, too.
The hero we need but don't deserve ❤️
🙂
I'm glad you're getting lots of views because of this 👍😊 Your videos are good.
Thank you for the support! Glad you're enjoying the videos 🙂
Love the game, too bad the atc is a AI thats not 100%.
I also get the problems with the ATC not working properly but i get punished for that...
Great to see your channel has grown so much over the years!
Came in with the City skylines era!
Thanks for all the support through the years! But yeah it was a crazy weekend! 🙂
GREAT flight. I like that you skip the LONG taxi's to and from the runway etc. Makes for a smooth video yet we still get the effect of the mission! !! !!!

Would love to see the CL-145's in person! Got to see the DC-10/C-130/BAe 146's come down here to Colorado Springs to refill after their drops!
Another great mission! Thanks for showing us
Of course! So happy you enjoyed! 🙂
Hey nice vid man. I fly airtractors in real life but I crop dust. You should do a crossing vid
Wait really? Wow I bet it must be paying well since you fly for hours dusting the fields
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂 We're getting pretty close to the Agriculture missions!
That looks like a lot of fun. I know there are a lot of complaints but I installed yesterday and am really enjoying it, no crashes or bugs so far. I also turned my cache up to 100gb so I think that’s helping with the terrain loading
Very nice! But yup same here, loving my time with the sim! And I'll have to mess with and see 🙂
I did that, too. Considering buying a 5tb or so hard drive just for FS2024.
@@christopherbernhardt you only need good internet for msfs 24
Your lucky. Every game I have bugs ranging from the passengers being upside down hanging off the plane to game breaking bugs. Lol
Good job man❤ Just a quick tip cuz i see you getting the left torque effect when trying to fly straight, you need to keep on the right rudder from the point you set the t/o throttle
Just step oon the ball, on the turn slip indicator. Keep the ball between the two lines.
Pretty sweet, I’ve built a few of these, including one that went to Portugal if memory serves. The Fire Boss is a cool machine.
That's very cool! I'm sure it was awesome building these 🙂
I heard the tornado missions are called "Weather data collection" and are gated behind the multi engine endorsement, it definitely would be nice to get more specializations though, like firefighting for helicopters
Hmm should still be seeing that in the Career list even if it was locked so we'll see! But more mission types are coming as well down the road! 🙂
THIS is what I’ve been waiting to see
Enjoy! 🙂
working a fire and seeing air tractors disappear into the smoke and reappear out the other side is truly a sight to behold
I’m sure of that!

Nice I'm sure it's awesome in VR! 🙂
Just subscribed and watched some of the other vids can’t believe some of the last vids had 500 views and now you got 30k
I appreciate it! And yeah this weekend has just been absolutely insane lol
I like that they gamified it. Good to have some objectives.
Nice videos. Could you do a video of your set-up and what your using to fly?
Thank you! Honestly don't have a crazy setup! Haha just use a Thrustmaster Hotas One, Xbox Controller, and the PC has a 3070 RTX, 64 GB Ram, i7 7700 Intel Core Processor!
Good job!
Thanks for saving my house, that fire is close to where I live😂😂
Glad to help out! 😂
love this videooooo!
Thumbs up for showing me how you did it. I made about 10 passes and filled up the progress bar to full, but it was stuck on attack 0/2
Absolutely! Glad I could help out 😃
Very good, you could have said that you got an S on this mission, more people would definitely watch your video.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂
First five minutes>>>
Can’t find anymore after 2 missions anyone else on the same boat?
so in this case the ground crew would fill your water tanks before you took off the only way you would need to fill up is if you already made one pass
5:25 "I'll be a challenge..." ?
Game is awesome but I wish they had better AI comms and ATC. Hoping for some mod support on that one.
Good videos 😁
Thank you! 🙂
if only i didnt see other reviews as negative as per graphic and internet streaming resource, i probably get it day one, i think im gonna just have to wait a little while until iits stable
anyway so fun video to watch
Glad you enjoyed!
10 days. I'm so dang pumped
Awesome! You're going to have a great time! 🙂
They need to get the Martin Mars into the game so we water bomb with it
Great videos
Thank you!! 🙂
I saw a tuber play a tornado mission, so they are indeed available! It required twin-engine certification. For some reason, those weather missions do not show in the initial list though.
Oh well that's awesome! Yeah that's why I assumed it wasn't in the sim yet, so definitely looking forward to it! 🙂
Awesome content! Are we going to get any hurricane Hunter missions that you know of?
Not sure about specifics on future ones but that would certainly be an awesome one to bring! 🙂
My only criticism is learn how to start each plane with out auto start because of you get into commercial I’m not sure if they will have that option
I love the style and formatting of your videos! Normally I don’t watch flight sim videos, I just play the game. However I just found the exception. Good video length, no talking the entire time, and gets great shots! Love it dude 😎👊
So happy to hear you're enjoying it! Welcome! 🙂
Very Cool!
Happy you enjoyed it! 🙂
What sim equipment are you using? Or are you just using an Xbox Controller. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed the video! I'm using the Thrustmaster Hotas One for flying and the Xbox controller for camera stuff (Showcase Cam and so forth!) :)
@ thank you so much 😊
could you do stuff with the heli career? i havent seen 1 creator that has done it yet. would love to see crop dusting
I’ll be diving into the Helicopter side of things very soon! And crop dusting is also coming up! 🙂
Dude looking like he just escaped from prison 😂
More right rudder!!
Thanks for great video. I can’t play this mission on career due to CTD😂. So I want know how aerial firefighting mission is going. Thanks again😊
You're very welcome! Hope you can dive into the mission soon!
This is really cool! Does anyone know how long it takes to get to the part where you spray the agricultural fields while flying that yellow plane in the msfs sim preview?

@@CowTown ok great! Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated! I plan on putting in the time to get there then most definitely.
Hello. I’m a new subscriber and I’m wondering what type of controls you’re using? Thank you for the video.
Hello and welcome! Glad to have you here! I use a Thrustmaster Hotas One!
You're making it REALLY difficult for me to hold back on buying this!! What are your PC specs if I may ask?
Lol! I have a 3070 RTX, 64 GB Ram, and some i7 Core processor that I need to look up for the specifics on that 🙂
I don't understand why they say Tank is Full when it's filled to 50%, you think 100% would be Full.
I believe it is full but it isn’t showing up like it’s supposed to which is why it doesn’t animate on the first drop either.
Medevac next!
Yup! 😁
Do u use any assistance I'm struggling whit this gorgeous game whit landing and instrumental it's tough but I'll keep at it😊
I do not use any assists for airplanes (for helicopters absolutely though! 😂)
Moooo!
🐮
Now fill it up and wash my car!
On my way! Haha
How do you do the 20 mission with A to unlock this
Hello I'm new to this channel, what location did cow town start in?
In this video we started at Aeroporto de Vigo!
In this game, is it possible to turn off some of the cheater things like the blue lines in the sky and things that aren't realistic?
Also, how are the helicopter in this?! That's what I'd buy this for, primarily.
Thanks and have a great day!!
Of course those things are able to be turned off, as for the helicopters they’re a blast to fly!
I always get 0% on the skydiving time. Anyone know what’s going on?
Is there a way to turn off all the immersion breaking graphics aids or are you stuck with them (taxi arrows, white boxes in the sky, etc. )?
The boxes can be turned off yes. They're just on by default. (I'll turn them off for future videos.)
Ahhhh..super. I got refunded for my Aviator’s Edition and in the meantime I’m trying to collect as much info as I can before deciding next year (after numerous items get addressed by the dev teams) before deciding whether I want to invest in this or not. Thanks for the reply and looking forward to more vids. It will help me ponder things in the meantime even though I don’t have it. 😊
Honestly, this is gorgeous. Always important to remember that X-Plane did this more than fifteen years ago though.
Use that pc-12 please
Hello for some reason I am unable to find new firefighting missions other then the first one. It showed up once again but not shows up anymore.
Same😢
@38babye i think they are fixing somethings as I started to get more ambulance missions hopefully fire soon too
are you able to play this. just with a keyboard and mouse?
I'm not sure about that one, hopefully someone else can answer that for you 🙂
me who’s stuck in cpl’s loading screen
Certainly would try a reinstall of the sim to see if that'll help you get around those load screens.
MORE RIGHT RUDDER!
How come I don’t see any search and rescue missions anywhere
You have to progress to it by completing previous mission types and certifications!
Sucks to be me I don’t have a gaming pc or Xbox so I don’t have a airbus joystick or throttle lever or Microsoft flight sim 2024
Hope you can get into it at some point! 🙂
@ I will one day

how? people keep getiing errors and the game wont even load? how are you playing this?
Haven't a single issue playing after the first day of server problems.
Everytime i fly this mission the plane drops the water on its own without me touching anything like one minute after scooping to 100% fill. If anyone knows what im doing wrong or if its just the game let me know.
Hmmm not sure. Might look into the assists menu or something to see if anything related to firefighting is set to auto drop.
Sucks all the voices are that lame ai
Nothing against the cow but I agree. Mikle soft needs to do better
Yeah, some proper Span(gl)ish would have been nice for the scenario.
A bunch of actors and a week in the recording studio was all they needed to do. It beggars belief why they have these ai generated voices
Yo, idk how these people actually played the game and said yeah, this is the best A.I. we can afford
agreed. Considering we can get pretty realistic AI voices w people on social media this is pretty crazy that it’s all MS could make
$200 disappointment at the moment.
