YOU NEED TO TRY THESE: Top 5 BEST Addons For MSFS 2020

do you feel that your sim is missing in some detail or you're looking at adding a more realism to Microsoft flight simulator I've tested it many many add-ons over the past couple of years and in this video I'm bringing you my best of the best a top five at free or paid add-ons to use with Microsoft flight simulator to increase the realism so let's jump in to the video the list of the add-ons I'm about to share with you in this video are based on my own experience and these are the ones that I can't miss out on it when I fly in Microsoft flight simulator each and every fly this add-on adds real world taxi signs to your airports in a Microsoft flight simulator that the cinema left behind at Microsoft airports with its new tech and make them resemble airports too it's real world counterparts but they're really missing taxiway signs if you struggle to navigate the airports in the simulator or the taxiway diagrams don't match or look right this is where real world taxi USA and Europe come into play this add-on has been designed by real world Aviation professionals to add signage that is functional and identical to the real world 2 100 airports have been updated with over 140 000 taxiway signs the signs used in real world taxi names are placed through each airport near where they would be in the real world text designs that match the Iko standard and at Country Pacific names with multiple variations of all types of signs if you're using a Microsoft flight simulator as a tool for real world Aviation or just want airports to be more realistic and this is a definitely worth a look the only slight problem when it comes to real world taxi signs it is not available all around the world only USA and Europe which is a little bit of a letdown but it does include a large part of the world nevertheless but it does enhance the non-paywear airports to make them more realistic and that's why it's made by number fifth spot being a real life pilot I find the next add-on to be really important as it adds extra religion to the simmer with power lines and solar Farms both of these are used in a real world at navigation and they can be hazardous and that need to be avoided the add-on adds power lines to 42 countries across the globe with newer updates and the development team is adding more and more countries some countries include Australia us UK Canada and Germany just to mention a few the developer has painstakingly added power lines using the open Street and map data and placing pylons and then adding the correct a number of power lines in between each of them when it comes to a solar Farms that developers use a similar data to add solar Farms to the Sim not as many countries in this case as the Farms to the power lines but it's still a nice addition some of the countries when it comes to solar Farms are us Greece Germany UK Canada and France with this add-on I've noticed no FPS drop and been a freeware product it is an advantage power lines solar Farms are everywhere around the world and it's great to see that they're in the Sim and this is why it's made my fourth spot if you love flying at VFR and you feel something is missing from your sim this next add-oner will help fill the gaps we love flying vifa adds over 500 000 at Friendly VFR objects across three Global regions the objects have been designed to be a low PC spec friendly and there's over 100 plus different objects and Counting the objects have been placed in the cinema by using a number of data sources across the globe and some of the objects you will find are mobile antennas TV antennas radio antennas radar domes satellite dishes construction cranes chimneys and cooling towers and flare Stacks all the chimneys the cooling towers and the Flash techs have working smoke and steam which is dependent by the wind and also the temperature some of the state name and smokestacks are a great addition to the realism of the Sim when it comes to VFR flying not only are they used for visual and navigation aid but it gives you a good visual on what the wind direction is doing the models used in this add-on are detailed and realistic and if you use a V5 navigraph charts the mobile towers are where the mobile towers are meant to be we love a VFR combined with power lines and solar Farms I have not noticed any FPS drops using the add-on with this add-on you will need to install all three regions if you want coverage across the globe and the development team is proactive with updates great news at we love FIFA is another freeware product and this is why it's made my number third spot airports are a busy place and it takes a whole team to prepare load and push back a airliner even though the simbat does provide somewhat a basic experience with this it falls far short GSX from FS Dream Team simulates several operations on the ground that enhances the immersion and realism of the Sim so some of the ground services that are included with GSX are marshalling a catering boarding and de-boarding of passengers and passenger bags passenger stairs and refueling GSX includes a pushback system which is realistic in behavior and also has a follow me car if you're unfamiliar with the airport and a docking system to help you with that perfect parking position other features that GSX includes is different vehicles that can be selected which is dependent on which aircraft and Airport you pick realistic human animations and ground crew passengers supports all the default aircraft and a majority of third-party developer aircraft many sound effects and a profile editor for different airports and aircraft so you can get the best out of GSX jsx is a must for any airliner flights and in my opinion it really does add realism and immersion to the simulator that being said GSX does come with some bugs and you do need to put the work in updating GSX regularly including airports and aircraft profiles to get the best experience j6 is a payware product for a once only fee that being said I will try to not to fly any airliner flight without it and this is why it's made my second spot of the list before we move into my final add-on recommendation let's have a look at a bonus product which doesn't fit into the visual improvements as the other five add-ons mentioned this video but it does provide a reason to fly and it adds a missing feature to most flight simulators which is a career mode this add-on simulates a query of a commercial airliner pilot by generating schedules tracking and scoring your flights and rewarding your weekly according to your contract type depending on how good your flight schools are you'll have more chances of moving up the pilot ladder to a higher tier airliner or purchasing more aircraft licenses Pilot's life chapter 2 allows you to monitor your finances a pilot's life chapter 2 allows you to monitor your finances your flights and your XP points throughout your career to help you achieve different achievements and you can even compete with friends and other pilots on the leaderboard Pilots live at chapter 2 features over 575 airliners with 280 000 real up-to-date routes and it's growing Cree system based on a pilot ratings and rank new job market logic which impacts by the choices you make contracts that may impact your salary a scheduled generation monitoring system for all stages of the flight detail Landing analysis at simbrief dispatcher achievements unlocked by sidequest you have your own logbook and there is a many more features that I haven't included in the list here if you've ever needed a reason to fly and you just wanted to have that sense of fulfillment and achievement then a pilot's life is definitely worth having a look and that's why I've included as a bonus recommendation for this video before we go to the number one add-on in the video please consider subscribing for more flight simek content and hit the like button if you enjoying the video moving on to the number one add-on that I use to improve realism in the flight simulator is FS realistic Pro FS realistic Pro simulates different aircraft effects that are missing from the simulator these add-ons bring realistic effects for GA Jets turbo props gliders helicopters and more it does this through 34 different camera and sound effects some of my favorite effects that I use in each and every flight is the main and front gear touchdown effects engine vibrations speed brake gear drag a flap stress and ground effect FS realistic brings real life movement into the cinema and being a real life pilot in my opinion it makes the Sim feel a little bit closer to the real thing FS realistic Pro allows you to set up profiles so you can share them them across all the aircraft that way you can set up and forget or you can set up profiles for each individual aircraft if you want to you can share your profiles in the cloud to other people in the community can use them as well FS realistic is compatible with other devices such as the butt kicker and also the next level racing hf8 haptic gaming pad which is a great extra immersion with them combined together this add-on is another Payway add-on however you can at trial it for free for the first seven days to see if it's something you would use for me it's an add-on I try to use each and every flight and this is why it's made my number one spot for the must use add-ons to bring realism to the simulator there developers are the heart of flight simulation and it's great to see them at creating ways and ideas to bring the simulator closer to the real thing and if you want to bring the simmer closer to the real thing I'll leave a link in the description so you can check out my go to top 5 add-on links that I've mentioned in the video here let us know in the comments below if you've tried any of these and what you think of these add-ons and I will see you in another video sometime very very soon thank you foreign
