One of the features I missed the most after moving to MSFS from P3d is the 3-monitor setup. I believe many friends feel the same.
A friend, KaseLite, who told me in an earlier email saying that he is running MSFS on three PCs with Wideview and the result is very good. But he admitted that the approach isn’t economical. Besides the hardware cost, you need to buy the same flight simulator, aircrafts and addons for all machines.
Nevertheless, KaseLite says that the graphics are the best this way. You can run all machines at maximum solution.
Here’s a demonstration video of his 3-monitor MSFS setup KaseLite took upon my request to share with other friends here. Thank you.

Albert Welledits, a pilot in Austria, sent me a video of a pattern flight at LOAN (Wiener Neustadt East Airport) on his flightsim cockpit simulating the Diamond DA20. He says the Rwy 09 in Service is a very challenging final, and he hates it on windy days, in particular.
