So with this out of the way assuming you meet the requirements, let's talk about what you'll need. I'm going to assume you're using the Meta Quest, first off you'll want to download the following programs. Oculus Tray Tool and OpenXR.

Let's start with the Oculus tray tool, we're only going to be focusing on one setting in this program. Once installed open the tray tool and change the "FoV Multiplier" to 0.65 and 0.65. That's all we're doing inside of this program.

Now follow the steps to install OpenXR

Once this is all done, you can now launch Microsoft Flight Simulator. An important thing to note is you don't go into VR mode until you're spawned in.

First off let's go into your general settings. Up The top where it says "PC" Click the next arrow to switch it to "VR" - these are your Virtual Reality settings in MSFS.
