PS:  you will this fine addon in the flightsim.com library as "alaskff1.zip".

This addon is developed for FS2004 and works fine in FSX DX10 too.

I though the Aurora was already in FSX (although I have never seen it). Is this specific to Alaska?

That's a beauty Wulf! :smile:

Yes, Aurora is included in FSX. Although searching to see it a long time, I never have seen it. So I have used this addon.

Interesting... I've never seen it, but probably have never gone far enough north or south... cool shot.

This fuselage gives only two choices, either IL62 or VC10 :lol:

I am not sure how the weather conditions can cause the Aurora Borealis/Australis... I thought it was to do with the charged particles from the solar wind and magnetosphere of the Earth colliding with atoms/molecules in the thermosphere...

 

As the weather occurs way below the thermosphere, I fail to see how the weather conditions can "cause" it...

 

I got to see it once at altitude, from the cabin of a DC-10 returning to Gatwick from Minnesota... 4 hours of light dancing above us, arcs, bridges, all the colours... never forget it to this day... a solar storm had occurred about day or two earlier, so we knew there would be something visible, but all who saw it and knew what it was were amazed by the intensity...

Next time it's cloudy i.e.(weather conditions!) I bet you won't be able to see the Aurora.

The IL62 doesn't have 'that' tail!

Aurora is already an effect in both FS9 and FSX. It's not an addon.

 

Which FSX month, which FSX day, what FSX clock time, and what waypoint on FSX  do any of you see FSX default Aurora, please?

 

Thanks,

 

Aharon
