Seeing as this instance and community is brand new, I'm very curious how everyone here flies their digital planes.

Personally, I love flying on Vatsim. Usually I grab the Fenix A320.
Right now I'm flying some different planes, hoping that the Fenix V2 update drops soon... I need that extra performance to not fly at less than 20fps constantly!
Also flying the CRJ, AN225 and ATR. Might also do some VFR on Vatsim soon.

But I'd love to hear how you guys fly.

I've been flying consistently for 15 years in the sim, and got my PPL last year and fly pretty regularly irl. I primarily fly airliners although I've done everything at one point or another (except zeppelins, waiting for the OML hindenburg for that...).

I fly a variety of flights from regional hops to long hauls. I've probably done a few hundred long hauls over my years of swimming, including CTP many times. I primarily fly xplane, although I use MSFS for bush flying, GA (which I don't do much now that I can do it irl) and occasional airliner ops. Nobody asked, but favorite addon is the Felis 747-200, absolute gem. If you're ever feeling like you've figured everything out with modern airliners and need a challenge the 742 is the answer.
