Setup:
Make sure your Frame Rate is locked at 20fps or lower.
Set Autogen scenery density at Normal or below. The area around Moffett has lots of
trees and buildings.
This setting will reduce framerate impact and make the pylons easier to see.
Crashes and Damage: Should be turned ON
Stress Damage and Collision: Must be turned OFF for multiplayer

Aircraft Loading: Configure your aircraft payload and fuel for optimum performance.
