Weather would be cool, too.  Heck, even some wind...make us chose the best runway for a crosswind landing.

Dusk/Dawn seems to go on forever.  I also dont understand how if you have the sun in your face, the clipboard map is glared out.

I dont miss night but at this point, something different would be good.

The searchlights would kick, but think of the frame rates we'd get.

Well I personally get crap frame rates when the sun is shining nearby; to me, lights that are moving around in the air would do the same thing.

No, that time was a few months ago...  It's past due; I just need a couple bucks.

I didn't mind the night, I don't mind the dawn/dusk, I wouldn't care if night/dawn/dusk were taken away or put back, I love the new clouds and wish there were more of them, I don't mind the glare from the sun (but wish the clipboard blocked it) either.

What I AM getting tired of is the sun being low on the horizon 99% of the time I fly, change it up a little bit the next time the maps rotate please. I fly weekday evenings between 7 and 11 central time, the sun seems to be ALWAYS low during those hours. I would guess that those who fly in the daytime (locally speaking) would appreciate some variety too.

Just a thought.
