Ok so im flying from my home airport to San Francisco in msfs2020. I run live weather and live traffic for added realism (live wx is mandatory on vatsim) so as i was turning onto the runway for takeoff i heard an airline call out they were 15nm out inbound for the ILS of the rwy i was on. I took off and as i was turning to intercept my SID route to join my flight path atc calls out to another airliner warning them of me. Nothing new in flight sim but i hit up flightradar 24 and BOTH the airlines (the one closest to final approach AND the one advised of me as traffic were both actually in the air and exactly where i expected given ehat my virtual ai atc and the first airline were saying/doing. Made me giggle

i just had a near collision at 36000!!! I was climbing up to cruise and another 737 (company traffic oddly enough) and my TCAS went nuts calling TRAFFIC! TRAFFIC! TRAFFIC! Then it entered into 3nm of my aircraft and TCAS suddenly screams CLIMB! CLIMB! CLIMB! So I slam my autopilot disconnect and give it all it will take and went for a 7000FPM climb. All the while my AP disconnect alarms screaming, TCAS keeps barking CONFLICT CLIMB! Fun moment! Conflict avoided, now at cruise! FL380

less than 100nm until TOD or top of descent. My flight plan has me a block time of 4 hours with an estimated 3h32m of flight time. Ive had my 737-700 pegged at .82 mach since cruise altitude was established. Im curious how fast this flight will end up being!
70nm until TOD 185NM until KSFO

unsure if it counted taxi to gate but my flight log shows i was in flight 3h24m35s i reduced speed to .79 mach 66nm from TOD. Overall a smooth flight!
