Only thing I wonder if it could be improved would be for the smoke to clear after a few minutes of hovering close enough which is a real challenge, especially with such a long trip and so many repairs. Last one I thought I was gonna crash for sure. Makes me wonder how the actual linemen fly these jobs. It's super hard to maintain stable hover. Don't know if it's something about the simulator or the model or my skills. I rarely stabilize for long -- usually fighting to maintain something stable enough for the guy to work but can't imagine how he could do anything useful being jostled around like I'm doing.
