December 27, 200322 yr Thanks to you and your team Bill! Happy Holidays as well.I've flown into RDG as a student and a private pilot from NJ. Your scenery brought back memories and the urge to fly back again!I just flew the demo of "Briefing Time" and was so impressed (that I could land it with no instruments) I just purchased it.Regards,Jim
December 29, 200322 yr This is a fantastic and beatiful scenery!! The R4D and B25 certainly deserve a well-designed and highly detailed home.And with everything coming from the MAAM, there are some nice surprises as well:Early morning dawn. You enter the hangar and climb into your bird. Looking out the window you see the cold neon light from the hangar ceiling, you can hear the clanky echoes from some heavy tools and you can smell the oily odor that is all around the hall. Turn on your battery switch and the radio master, tune your COM1 to 112.00 and call for Rambow and Womack, who will instantly drop their coffee cups in front of the radio and rush along to slide open the huge hangar doors, waving to you in your R4D-cockpit. The first rays of the early morning sun strike in from the left, as you start your right engine in a cloud of smoke and soot (there is some cursing from a soot tanned mechanic, that the engines shouldn't be started inside the hangar, but you cannot hear it over the engine noise). Then you start the left engine, release the parking brake and slowly roll to the forecourt of the MAAM hangar, peeking at the crimson horizon, while the silhouettes of Rambow, Visser, Banting, Young, Womack, Hambly and Chaffin line up at the hangars threshold, critically watching your run-up procedures.Believe me, it is very different to start a flightsim-adventure from within a closed hangar!;-)Thanks for KRDG!Zarzura
December 29, 200322 yr Hi Bill!Thanks for the great scenery! I attended the AVSIM conference there and it was great to compare the real airport with your work. You did a fantastic job!! I can still remember walking across the tarmac to attend the papers session in the T-Hangar, and the great exhibits in the MAAM hangar.Do you have other scenery that you have done previously? I am waiting for someone to do the Bay Bridge from Annapolis to Kent Island in Maryland. You may know that it is missing in FS2004. Another neglected airport in FS2004 is my home airport KBWI. Hopefully someone will take on this project someday.Thanks again and have a nice holiday!Airbus Al Kaupa Digital Storm purchased 8/17/2011; Win7x64: Asus P8P67 Deluxe; Intel i7 2600K@3,9 GHZ; nVidia GTX 560Ti; 8GB DDR3 1600 Corsair Dominator; Power Corsair HX 750W; Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD; 300GB WD VelociRaptor; 1TB Seagate.
December 29, 200322 yr Author Thanks, 'bus! Yeah, isn't it fun, having attended the conference, to "walk" around the airport again? I had such a good time, it's nice to be able to relive a little of it whenever I want. As for other scenery of mine, I did a bush airport in Alaska last year (for FS2002) called "Antelope Trail Ranch" that you might like. I'm going to update it for FS2004 and add/change some things soon, so look for that. I'm also working on several projects closer to my home of Portland, Oregon. Glad you enjoyed KRDG!
