May 14, 201610 yr I fly Papua New Guinea a lot in the OrbX sceneries enhanced with the Scenery Tech landclass. This is the first screenie from a flight from Port Moresby to a small strip East called Kagi. The whole flight is here including the perilous landing :smile: !

May 14, 201610 yr You can't land ther.... Oh, you can, actually! NICE!

May 14, 201610 yr Oh yeah, been there, done that. Great shots. Everything PNG is always a challenge :wink: Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
May 14, 201610 yr Very cool shots, great area to fly. How would you describe the benefits of the ST LC? Does it substantially change what ORBX already achieved? Hans
May 15, 201610 yr Author Glad you liked them, thanks to all of you. Very cool shots, great area to fly. How would you describe the benefits of the ST LC? Does it substantially change what ORBX already achieved? The layout of the land (the mix of fields, villages, tropical forests, marshlands etc.) becomes much more convincing if not always accurate (Honiara in the Solomons does not appear for instance). And you get less aggravating oddities like fields and villages on top of volcanoes. It marries quite well with OrbX Global textures. I fly quite a bit in Indonesia (it does a not shabby job in Java), PNG and the Solomons, and it is, for me, more than worth its 13 € ! This is an older product, never updated since the early FSX, but the only LC i know for SE Asia. A freeware exists for the Solomons but I've still to try it.

May 15, 201610 yr Wow, that's amazing scenery! I've seen real pics for a friend you landed at a strip similar to that in PNG. Scary stuff!!

May 15, 201610 yr Author Thank you. Yep, I suppose that passengers do hold their breath in a real landing in PNG. Flying in PNG, with a sim, is good for improving airmanship skills. You do good or you die :wink: . Stalling is very easy and most the times irrecoverable. I try not to show nice pics (thanks for the compliment anyway) but pics that show the dynamic of a flight there. And the fun I've !
