a simple solution could be streaming on twitch with OBS, then your video is automatically saved on twitch

Two videos showing off the weather graphics: one with the plane moving in rain and one with the plane slowing down and standing still.....you see the rain reacting to wind and plane movements and speed.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do you know what you are flying over at any time?

You create a flightplan: this can be very simple A to b but gets much more complex once you start getting into real life operation simming. The flight computer guides the plane after take off to a few minutes before landing, calculating each step of the way. In this case basic geography teaches me that there aint nowt else between Aussie and the Kiwis than Tasman Sea!

Planes fly along airways and markers in the air that are of course invisible and don't exist apart from as GPS points. Just like roads airplanes follow set patterns and routes so as to not get in each others way!

Once you know what you are doing to a certain extent it is strange but true: it is easier to fly an Airbus A320 than it is to fly a Cessna 172!
