As an attendee of the Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary Event at Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum at McMinnville, Oregon, USA, I've had the chance of testing the Sim Update 11, named 40th Anniversary Edition, on November 10th, 2022, just 1 day before it's world release.

This is one of the test I did that day, the Hands On focused on gliders.

The other 3 test were:
-My first test of helicopers: youtu.be/3pF5nnHzS5o
-My first test of Hughes H-4 Hercules "Spruce Goose": youtu.be/zYyFDLFxE0w
-My first test of Ryan NYP: youtu.be/omDwrc8zAPU

Please take note we were not allowed to record screens, so all simulator footage was recorded afterward at my home and at some moments cand not be exactly the same as I'm commenting. Control input would barely match. I had to edit this video this way, sorry.

And also thanks to all the involved teams from Microsoft, Asobo, X-Box, Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum, Stoller Wine Group, PR's, friends from media and influencers, and passionate gamers and flightsimmers supporting this simulator!
