I'm guessing it's the Fairway Rock, which I spotted on a flight out to the Diomede Islands...

 

From a distance it looked like a ship - but the 'wave' was pretty cool too... :)

I spoke of this "waterberg" but didn't post pic. All the Diomede's area is buggy (misplacements from the map, low res. textures, no autogen). The "wave" is static and quite high ! If it was a tsunami, would be impressive !!...

 

It would be cool if there was such icebergs, with the right textures of course, moving in the right places :)

@JC - yeah - it was a static wave - I checked the location on Googlemaps and reckon the mesh has lifted up over the untextured Fairway Rock

 

@DM - If we had gigantic animated icebergs then we'd all be insisting they roll over every now and then. It would certainly make landings on them more interesting...

+100 for icebergs, please MSGS :)

This is the location that scenery ended being built for Flights Alaska pack. I have a flight I started yesterday in the Redtail following this line at 70 degrees,then it made a right angle to 340 degrees and I am still following it. I stopped last night due east of PAKT and will continun again sometime today. I am taking screen shots along the way of things that stand out to me. this is a shot I took at the point that I stopped at yesterday.
