    Question Return to Earth MFD

    There's TransX and IMFD, both of those will do it. You still need to know how to use them though.

    https://www.orbithangar.com/showAddon.php?id=ab10a10e-914d-44e0-b1ad-4b8daed12649 It's backwards compatible for everything I've found so far.

    Comet NEOWISE

    I haven't been able to see it yet. I think it's too close to the horizon (or terrain) for me

    So.... I was surprised at work today by our new VP of Quality Assurance. Luckily I had all my PPE on (except my anti-Covid-19 mask, but I was 8 ft away from the nearest person). She's exceptionally cute. Later I heard some people referring to her as "Carol Baskin", so, maybe not?

    Recommendation for lifting rocket.

    You can make you life a bit easier with the Jonesoft Generic Mod enabler. What this does is make a folder in your Orbiter installation (by default is titled [MODS]). When you unzip an addon, unzip it to this folder. If the developer kept the proper directory structure (most do) it'll make it...

    Flight Question Atlantis reentry 2

    There's several times during the S-turns that you'll need to roll past 90 in order to manage your altitude. Or at least that's the way I fly reentry. The shuttle is basically a flying brick, but it flies very well at hypersonic speeds.

    Problem DG IV-3 problem with custom autopilot

    Which version of Orbiter are you using? And are you using a laptop? I've not tried the DG-IV with Orbiter 2016 too often, instead I typically use the XR fleet which also have some very good autopilots, and are Orbiter '16 compatible. If I can get the kid asleep, I'll see if I can reproduce...

    News COVID-19 pandemic

    Lots of news here is either from the AP (Associated Press) or Reuters. It really doesn't matter what channel you watch as they either paraphrase or quote directly what either one of those two have already written. The rest of it is entertainment parading as news. @Thunder Chicken, sorry to...

    News COVID-19 pandemic

    My take on the BBC (for what it's worth), if I want a fairly balanced report about what's going on here in the United States I'll watch BBC (there's an Australian news channel I've seen that was pretty good too, but can't remember the call letters). If I want entertainment, there's CNN, FOX...
