Ortho4XP, ZL17 We take off from Leknes on the island of Vestvagoy Thanks for viewing

Not quite pushing the envelope, but still an interesting experiment for me anyway. Distance from Walvis Bay, Namibia to St. Helena according to google is 1216 nautical miles. Walvis Bay is a stop off point used by SAA Airlink when flying to St. Helena with their Embraer 195. St. Helena is one of those islands near that well known navigational waypoint MMFW (miles & miles of F@@@ water..). You may get to go around at the airport but it's doubtful you get to go back to the origin of your flight! Range of a Piaggio P180 Avanti is 1510 NM. Ok let's go then. I've not flown Hammer 66 for some time!! Dawn over FYWB. Goodbye Namibia. …

Post processing with FS9-Windows10 it's possible! SweetFX work.

Holy smokes this combo will be good in the near future. (think: P3D v 5.5). Still has some bugs to be ironed out...but despite that, I think Truesky is one of the missing pieces in this sim.

Really like new atmospheric feel in v5, makes for some nice shots occasionally - Posted some of them in the v5 thread as well. Includes some OrbX & FlyTampa 0

Ortho4XP for Germany and the Alps, ZL17 Thanks for viewing

Hi folks, here are some impressions of a flight from Krasnoyarsk-Cheremshanka to Podkamennaya Tunguska with an Antonov An-28 along River Yenisey. The next picture shows the two Krasnoyarsk airports: Cheremshanka, mostly for small aviation, to the left; and Yemelyanovo International Airport to the right: Most time of the flight we follow river Yenisey. At final approach to Podkamennaya Tunguska. This airport is named after the river of the same name, that flows into river Yenisey just at the opposite riverside. It's the very same river where 1908 the Tunguska meteorite impact occured. Landed! N…

When, I lost use of my PMDG (BAe) JS-41, I also lost use of one of my most well-loved (SIM) aircraft...I recall, in FSX, making many (diligent full start-up to shut-down) flights with it (by the book, I mean, by the "Tutorial"...🙂..!). It still flies in my FSX-SE, but, due to some reason, it becomes a slide-show, at times, (whereas, in contrast, and surprisingly, my (good old) PMDG MD-11, gives me no trouble - even I had posted a couple of times about it!). And, BTW, this gem-of-a-SIM (pmdgJS41), unfortunately, remains only for FSX still, I think. With the duo of pmdgJS41 and mjcQ400, if one is into turboprops, one would be pretty much well-set, I would think...Anyway...b…

Hey Folks, A few of my recent flights around various areas. Milviz DHC-3 Turbine Otter over Denmark Ant Tecnam P92 Eaglet over Pacific Northwest USA Ant Tecnam P92 Eaglet landing at WN01 Waterplanes Cushman A2A Commanche over New Zealand Hope you enjoy :-) Cheers

This was supposed to be a relaxing, fun trip. Well….ya see Ok, we need to gain altitude, full power Almost there and just when I wanted to reduce power: BANG ! Stupid me !! 😡 Somehow, we made it 🙂 Thanks for viewing

Boomerang Airbus...as in the other Eurowing paint-scheme. Featuring the "new to me" Aerosoft Cologne/Bonn Professional Airport. Thanks for viewing, Darryl

I'm bit of a fan of old and classic airline liveries, as, certainly, many folks, also, here, are...and, we know, airlines, do change their colors, though infrequently, to new ones, sometimes, much to the chagrin of followers and enthusiasts, including some diehard fans right here in this forum...🙂...The (recent) livery changes by Lufthansa and Air Canada, are two great examples. A quick search today revealed several comments and expressions of frustration - referring, of course, to the latest liveries of these two Airlines...Oh well...we cannot (usually) control the corporate decision-making process and the associated business motivations...of these Airlines...(and, so, a…

Even in the chaos, cargo flights continue This one is from KMIA to SUMU Uruguay. Pushing back. Taxiing out. Positive Rate! FSX NOTAM, I wish Sky Simulations would fix the gear door animations which appear to be missing in V2.2, but they told me that they couldn't reproduce the fault Turning on to an initial course and heading towards the ocean. Bye bye, Miami! Over Cuba Initial cruise altitude. FL350 I think. Later in the trip we'll head on up to FL410 when most of the fuel's been burned. I believe the mountain over the port wing is Pico Cristobal Colon, Colomb…

Relating to the video from Rob Ainscough showing a black ocean as the "new water and waves" in P3Dv5 Beta https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/572880-p3d-v5-beta-orbx-socal-and-norcal-and-waterwaves/ I want to present the comparison to water and waves in FSX. Enjoy! And yes, it's default. No addons (besides the sceneries), shaders or paint / photoshop used 🙂

Hello everyone! I just realized that I have not shown any photos since September! 😱 I'll have to do it now! Sorry, there are really a lot of pictures, there has been a lot of them accumulated the last time! And despite the difficult time at the moment, I wish everyone a Happy Easter!

These pics are just for the sake of reference, so you can see what you can (still) do if you have an old jalopy for a pc. Pics are straight out of the sim, no editing, sharpening, etc. Flight was from Borlange Airport to Kiruna airport in Sweden. Active Sky Weather matched the real world weather conditions perfectly. Addons: Flight 1 Citation Mustang Active Sky Rex Environment Force Orbx Borlange Airport Orbx Kiruna Airport Orbx all global and Europe base products Framerates were between an (to me) acceptable 18-25 fps. Did dip a few times i…

The repeating landclass textures in Asia had made me give up flying in the region (apart from Australia to Hong Kong, for which I have good photo scenery). Then I discovered Gibson Sceneries' North East China and China - Hong Kong to Shanghai v2 payware. The product is described as "economical real scenery for en-route flying above medium altitudes", so above FL100 is where it starts to look good. Now, it might only be LOD12, however, for ~25 GB of disk space (I deleted the duplicate LOD 11 that came with it), I now have the whole eastern part of China. It's made a big enough difference to me that I'm now interested in buying some mainland China payware airports.…

The Lance is Back...twitchy and all. Orbx never said this aircraft would run in Prepar3d v4.5? These scenes include Orbx the Lansair IVP and TrueEarth Great Britain South. Thanks for viewing, Darryl
