January 26, 200323 yr Just thought I'd make a quick post to say thank you and post a few screen shots.Thank-you to Mike Bevington, and all those who helped organize this great event. This is my second PIC ON VATSIM event and I have thoroughly enjoyed both of them.Also, a big thank you to all the ATC's who provided outstanding service for the flights. This was my first time flying under oceanic procedures and it was learning experience as well as a great deal of fun.Due to poor fuel planning on my part I had to make a stop over at PHNL on the YSSY to KSFO flight. Thanks to Ian for being up so early to provide ATC as Honolulu Centre. It made a nice detour.Here are a few screen shots of a nice sunrise after getting up to cruise leaving PHNL, a few of us fighting for last place at the rear of the pack, approaching the coast, my turn on final for 28R (just as AAL327 disconnected from the server) and finally my landing (DS you'll notice the APU port is closed :-)).Thanks again!
January 26, 200323 yr Good shots Murf. I hung in as long as I could at San Francisco but finally had to depart good company. Those environmental files by Gerrit Kranenbarg are great eh?? The sunrise, sunset, and water reflections have never been this good. For those that are not familiar with this, the "Fs2002 Environment upgrade v2" is a very nice set of replacement textures with no downside effect on frame rates.
