Real MD-11 Pilot demonstrates 'Say Intentions'' ability to handle a Mayday and divert. Outstanding!

I'm very new to Say Intentions, but I am very impressed. The Artificial Intelligence is so much fun to work with, and the applications for flight simming are almost limitless. I know, as a content creator, that I'll find a lot of ways to enchance my productions!

I have been waiting so long for the PMDG 777 and the TFDi MD-11 to make it to MSFS. I flew the PMDG 777 a lor on P3D, and I am part of the TFDi Quality Assurance team, so my dreams are coming true! Both of these airplanes are incredible, and both are "buy now" add-ons in my opinion.

I went over to P3D for the PMDG 777 as I was a real 777 Captain, and flying several aircraft on MSFS was affecting my job performance. On the other hand, flying the 777 on P3D actually helped me at work. No rap on P3D, as I really loved the honesty and performance accuracy of the study level PMDG 777. However, I am trying to build a following, and MSFS is by far the most followed.
I am a 1958 vintage pilot with over 21,000 flight hours. I currently reside in Connecticut. I am a 1980 US Air Force Academy graduate and a seven-year Air Force instructor pilot. I have flown for a major US Airline since 1987 and I retired in September of 2023. I have been type-rated in the MD-80, B-737, B-757, B-767, B-777, A-300-600 and the MD-11. I am a recently retired (9/6/23) 777 Captain.
I have traveled the world and I have come to the conclusion that there is no place like home. It's been a great ride. I am very new to the MSFS and P3D world and I love it. Please feel welcome to offer any advice that you deem helpful.

Hello, Cap. Richard! Ok, I'm sold! I was contemplating switching to SI from BATC and this video has solidified my decision. Thank you, sir!

Awesome Video Captain . Thankyou sir

That was pretty cool. I've been using BeyondATC in the UI mode, because as someone with no real flight experience, I don't really know how to interact with ATC. I have to let Beyond ATC "guide me" by clicking through the responses when necessary. I guess I know the very basics now, but even now I get lost quite easily.

Howdy captain - looks like APU and engine sounds are getting better

Hi Father Time, that was how realistic the AI is becoming on these programs these days. That was a really fun I think you said this Saturday is the Cross the Pond you thinking of making a video of the flight, or maybe doing it curious! Anyway, great to see you in action once more. Keep well and all the best Dave.
