if we are going full realism, will you feel the need to circumnavigate situations like an explosion at the [niagra border crossing](https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/11/22/nyregion/rainbow-bridge-explosion-niagara-falls), assuming they would restrict airspace?
this particular situation seems nbd, but it did make me wonder

Pretty relaxing flight over to Charlottetown from Quebec City. We didn‘t have a lot of daytime so didn’t do much sightseeing, plus ATC had us flying at 13,000 ft most of the way so not much to see other than clouds.
Note we‘ve ditched the cargo pod. We’ll need to fly as light as possible to make it the Azores
mentioned this on another stream but we have an add-on that injects irl air traffic into the game, so that Air Canada Rouge A320 represents a real flight boarding at Quebec City

OK so the important thing is that no one was hurt. But a minor incident occurred while taxiing prior to departure. I am confident that the FAA investigation will conclude that it was the controller's fault.
basically what happened was the aircraft was taxiing just a little too fast because, it could be argued, certain passengers were being pushy about seeing Anne of Green Gables's house. This was more implied than said, but still, the argument could be made.
The front gear got bent and then we apparently damaged a Pitot tube on the runway. It happened pretty fast and this is the best screenshot I could get, but the Pitot damage makes sense if it clipped the asphalt as the plane pitched forward.
