It has been a tumultuous time for the flight simulation community, and there have been many disturbances in the force.
In a special two part episode the Three Grumpy Simmers return to tackle tales of Piracy, Theft and total disrespect for you the virtual aviator.
In Part Two of this episode, the Three Grumpy Simmers take a long hard look at the Fall from Grace of what was once a highly regarded developer Captain Sim following the release of their 777-200 for MSFS. We ask why it happened and what does it mean for all of us as a community.
Please note this episode was recorded BEFORE the "livery-gate" saga erupted, so this episode purely deals with their conduct and attitudes with releasing the product in the first place.

Three Grumpy Simmers - EP29 - How's Your Mental Health Game?
Friday Nov 13, 2020
Friday Nov 13, 2020
The Three Grumpy Simmers make their long awaited return to the airwaves with a topic that is very much suited to 2020 and the world we all find ourselves in.
In this episode we discuss some of the more uncomfortable topics, how to recognize burn out in ourselves and our friends. We talk about how it happens to all of us, and what we can each do.
Spending a little time reflecting on the journey we have had with flight simulation, we appreciate the journey we are on, and ask a question we have asked before for us all to think about, why do we sim?
Remember folks, that it is easy to just type words, we never know what is happening on the other side of the screen. Be supportive of each other. Try and remember that we are here to enjoy ourselves, to escape from the daily world. Lets support and encourage everyone in their own unique way of celebrating and reaching that. Be good humans.
We know you are all waiting for a review of the new sim... and its coming! But the sim is so big and so much is going on, we want to do it right, so its coming soon!™

The Three Grumpy Simmers have been roused from their slumber by Microsoft's announcement this week of a confirmed release date for their reentry into the flight simulation world on August 18 2020.
We dissect the information provided by Microsoft as part of the announcement and give our thoughts and impressions. Listen to us prattle on about our excitement, and our concerns following the announcement. We also relieve some moments of simulation history and ask what lessons might be learned from them.
Thanks to you the simming community, we also get an insight into what you are feeling towards this upcoming title.

Tuesday May 26, 2020
Tuesday May 26, 2020
The Three Grumpy Simmers are back once again to give their take on the seeming never satisfied quest for Realism and Immersion. With the recent release of Prepar3D v5, as well as the upcoming new sim from Microsoft, questions about this topic have once again bubbled to the for in major ways.
Each of us muse on the meaning behind each of these words, and discuss how to balance these quests with the realities of our world. They also go through some of the challenges faced in this never ending quest, and pose the question of have we gone to far?
No tire smoke was harmed during the production of this video.
