Well they’re definitely more fun to control :)
(but you will get to see all the un-expert behaviour on full display)

No, never. If I’m flying to ATC it’s going to be the side airports with like 10-15 arrivals. Saves me the headache of witnessing hub behavior + gives those controllers something to do.

I chose to depart KSFO this one time when it was full… never again.

No, super laggy and you’ll probably spend most of the time on the ground

Bonus points if you actually fly properly and professionally causing no issues whatsoever but just keep everyone on edge the whole time, like what might he do?

Landing into a busy hub is not as bad as departing from it…

KSFO was packed with virtually no visibility hahaha. I literally had to taxi at 3-4 knots after landing. But thank god for autoland 😜.

Even then I accidentally clipped someone’s wing on the taxiway… sorry to whoever that was!

Me too. I normally go to the smaller airports

Absolutely not. I don’t find it fun waiting in an airspace with hundreds of aircraft

Yes… And no because my device can’t handle it

I like flying out of busy airports. But once a few months ago I was flying into a busy KWER and it might have taken me 20+ minutes to land, there were so many people it was crazy.

Basically causal server with ATC 🤣

It’s the opposite for me departing is easy, it’s the landing that’s harder because of the people who get cleared to line up seconds before you land thus making you have to go around…and make millions of loops all over creation just to get back in line.
