Should I make a jamesPLANESii Instagram Account for my SP projects?

234k jamesPLANESii  4.2 years ago

I’ve always found Instagram pages sharing their flight simming experiences and acting as if they think they’re professional, even though all they do is take screenshots flying the stock Maule M7 in FSX and do “#BushFlying”, incredibly cringy, and people who are eternal virgins. But after a quite popular Instagram page called cessnateur, who posts whacky aircraft designs and concepts (who has probably become my favourite Instagram page with the things they post) shared my Scout Kea on their account, and got quite a lot of attention, I’ve wondered whether people want a page where I share what I do and do progress updates on my builds. Since cessnateur’s post, I’ve had at least 2 people per day requesting to follow me (which I deny because my Instagram account is private and I feel uncomfortable having random people I don’t know looking at what I do in my life), and the day after he posted it, I had something like 50 people request to follow me. I feel like kind-of a letdown since all these people want to follow me to see my SP builds but I won’t let them.


So yeah. Would you guys be interested in following a SimplePlanes Instagram page where I do progress updates on my current projects and stuff?
I personally wouldn’t be interested in following a page like this at all because I don’t care about what other people are doing in their simulators and that stuff, and I like my social media filled with bush flying and aeroplanes. But judging by the number of people who’ve wanted to follow me on Instagram after cessnateur’s post, clearly people are interested... Or at least I think.

What do you guys think? Would you follow me if I did this?

Anyway here is what cessnateur’s post says:

Oh and all of the posts he makes go into this much detail. His account is soooo interesting! I love it!


Oh yeah, that’s what the Instagram app looks like when you look at it with a tablet lol.
I don’t have a phone.

    I saw that post on the gram a while ago. Congrats! Only do it if you want. It might be a good idea to make a quick account to reserve your name though.

    As long as its concept focused and not like a gamer promo, then it won't be cringy. Make it clean and professional, and maybe discuss other people's builds and some real concepts like stalls and P-factor
