Soaring over Maryland

Featured Replies

I decided I'd post some pictures from near Gaithersburg, MD.  I love the way the countryside looks from above.  I used to spend considerable time in Gaithersburg in my younger days, in my early career.  I grew fond of the area.

 

Hope you enjoy the pictures

 

John

Looks good 2590 Lima.  Why not take a hop over here to the eastern shore for some crab cakes?

Thanks for all your comments.  I've been posting so many Wings of Prey threads, the night I captured these screenshots was my first with FSX in quite a few weeks.  FSX sure is enjoyable, especially with Tileproxy running and my suite of Carenado aircraft.

 

Regards,

What aircraft is that in your thumbnail?

Good detail in both the aircraft and scenery. That livery uses orange nicely.

Yep, it's a Duchess

In the small thumbnail image it looks so much like a C310 but has the high tail section.

Check out Greenbrier Aero Club, the VA for and about the GA pilot.

Not quite Tileproxy at its best though.  Some shots are a bit blurry--reason being I flushed my Tileproxy cache which had tens of Gigabytes of data.  First time one flies through a scenery area after the cache has been flushed, Tileproxy is loading the scenery off the web.  My next flight over the area will look even better.
