October 27, 201213 yr I had the good fortune to be sent to this island twenty years ago, almost to the day, in order to evaluate living on the island for a position I was being offered. Sadly, I chose not to move there due to the high housing expenses. But my potential employer made the trip memorable, flying me out from the States at their expense via Tokyo, and putting me up in their resort (which I captured in one of the screenshots). I spent three memorable days there, although I had a horrible case of jet lag. And I flew over the island not in a 172, but in a 747. OK, for those geographically savvy, I've dropped some hints. What island is it? Love the look of Carenado's 172 now that I've mipped the textures and can enjoy anti-aliasing. Enjoy the shots! John
October 27, 201213 yr Okinawa Island ? Great shots by the way. jime Nope, good try though (honestly I would have been taken aback had someone guessed it right off). My father would have recognized it--he was based on that island in the 40's.

October 27, 201213 yr Guam #1 red sandstone #2 looks like Apra harbor #4 that little park sticking out HLJAMES Yep, Guam! I went through great lengths to hide the airport, which would have been an immediate giveaway. John
