AOTD for 1/9/13 - Channel Run

Featured Replies

This should be a fun one. Fly the supply for Rainbow falls back to its' source. I've done this several times and had some interesting flights in Hawaii following the streams to see where they start. Some end in a small lake or pond, and some just disappear. This should be a pond based on the picture.

 

Enjoy.

Thank you.

I got a real thrill from this. Following the stream beyond the Aerocache, quite a long way into the forest and up the hill, was very revealing and a stunning view of the scenery.

One the the major elements missing from previous versions of Flight Simulator was hydrography in all its complexity and detail. Lakes, ponds, minor rivers and streams, dams were rare in North America and basically non-existent in the rest of the world. The flight up the streams showed how the scenery in Flight has become beautiful and realistic.

Did the channel run without any difficulty, found the water fall. Of course I had to land and check it out, very cool. I did remember flying over even a bigger water fall further down stream. So hiked down hill to check it out. What I found was a real WOW! A raging wide water fall with full motion and sound. You can walk right under it.Stop motion does not do it Justice, turn up your speakers for the full effect. First time I have seen anything like this in FLIGHT! I am constantly amazed with what I find i this still amazing world. Luis has a nice shot of this one from the air.

You can hear that waterfall from your aircraft, flying over it. It must be really impressive from ground level.
