If you're one of those new to MSFS and remember the days when Meigs Field was the beginning of many simulated flights. Well you can again, because someone by the name of GuillermoZS has just released it as freeware for the new sim. It's available on the Flightsim.to website.

Saw this interesting design to modify an Xbox controller with a larger joystick and throttle.
