W16, with all ORBX features turned on...

Featured Replies

...just finished using Mr. Avatar to check out the plane and property. Actually, it was my first use of this feature...and is way cool, to immerse yourself in what ORBX has put out...wow!

 

I finally got the lower level clouds to work between ASN 4.1 (latest Beta), REX4 Direct injection, and P3D v3.2. This is the result...a beautiful sky about to be lifted off into....

 

So, again, here's W16 Firstair, Washington

 

Cheers,

Your avatar was seen crossing the runway at the wrong time :-)

What was she thinking?? And why didn't he go around?

Hard to tell. The whole situation looks pretty unusual to me, to say the least.

The 172 is landing while another aircraft is still on the runway and preparing for take off. My assumption is that she waited to cross the runway until the first aircraft had left, but she had simply not noticed that there was another incoming aircraft on short final. Thanks God it resulted in a funny situation, but it could lead to an unhappy ending.
