[Note: Today, just to take my mind off a bit, I felt like doing an easy and relaxed flight, but this post was also (partially) triggered by my last week's acquisition of DRZEWIECKI Design's Bornholm Island (SALE) offering. So, I invite you, here, for a (virtual) tour of this beautiful island!] Imagine a piece of land, <20 miles wide and <30 miles long, geographically within very short distances of (50-100) miles from 4-5 different countries, and, been fought over, for supremacy and occupancy, for centuries, by various invaders and intruders, plundering pirates, medieval royals and religious forces, and by many different (relatively) modern-day nations too...Th…

LRIA - LRBM

Gone but not forgotten.

Dear all, I am an enthusiast since FS9 were popular and I am still using FS9 and P3Dv4. I would like to share some pictures below. Cheers !

Keeping at 31 FPS, locked...and got all my plug-in's working as well! Transferred them over from another copy of my OpenGL XP11.41 version. Running 6 shader .fx files from ReShade 4.5.4, and it has transformed XP's land, water...color depth, visual field of depth...simply wonderful...and thought to share some of the results flying over my Ortho4XP 17 tiles near Orillia, Ontario:

Leaving VHHX

Shalom and greetings all my pals, Presenting the most famous Alaskan commuter route between two Alaskan cities Anchorage and Fairbanks At international terminal of PANC Finished with pushback Dig nice shiny engines Is it nice to have brand new tire replacements before flight? Nice tail view All airport vehicles waiting for the plane to start engines and taxi away Dont you love very smoky engine start while the engines roar to alive?

P3D is just looking better and better.

PC12 with the needed mods and F1 GTN...Absolute joy to fly

ORBX TE Northern California. I have travelled this beautiful area a few times, it’s as impressive from the air I admit, the paint scheme might be a bit over the top, but the Waco carries it gracefully Thanks for viewing

[Note: This post (I've been thinking about it, for a while) and the SIM images, below, (about the BN-2 Islander aircraft) was triggered by some (recent) interest, a member post, here, and a comment on my (last) S330 post. This is about a remarkable (but little known and nearly forgotten) episode of history...Anyway, here we go...Hope you enjoy...] When we think of Air Races to Australia, we might recall the well-known 1934 (London to Melbourne) MacRobertson Trophy Air Race or the classic (England to Australia) Vickers Vimy (Smith Brothers') flight of 1919. But, there was another less-known, but quite noteworthy air-race, in 1969, this time, from Gatwick (located less…

Scotland is an interesting region of the United Kingdom...Along with the archipelago of the Shetland Islands (~100 miles to the North of Scotland), their northern edges constitute the northernmost points of the United Kingdom. In fact the starting point of travel for this post, the town of Kirkwall (in Shetland), may be considered the most northernmost (populous) settlement in the United Kingdom. The two most important cities, in Scotland, are the (large) seaport of Glasgow and the historic (capital) city of Edinburgh (the destination for this subject flight). So, here, below, please find a set of (sample) images of a (~200mi) flight from Kirkwall (EGPA) to Edinburgh…

[Note: Following up on my (previous) high-speed overpass of Scotland, in the (fast) King Air, I wrap-up my Scotland (virtual) tour, here,...with a bit of closer look, using (another Carenado aircraft - the (versatile) C185 Amphibian...] Scotland's coastline is rather remarkable in the sense that it's marked by an abundance of inland water-bodies (e.g. straits, inlets, and estuaries etc.). The word is "Firth" (e.g. Firth of "Fill in the Name of City/Locality"), and "Firth" has a definition as follows: "Firth is a word in the Scots and English languages used to denote various coastal waters in Scotland and even a strait. In the Northern Isles, it more usually refe…

Do you know this small nice Aiport? It's on sale at the moment. Ok, a little bit outdated, but still really nice. Regards Urmel

Mini review of the new free scenery LRBM Aeroportul International Maramures. While continuing to test the new PDCS for CS B732, I also tested a new free scenery from Tompa Sergiu. A neat light scenario is very good. So, I'm fly from Varna to Baia Mare Romania.
