Thanks, HL...I'm very much in you 'camp' now!

Thanks, HL...I'm very much in you 'camp' now!

The canyon shows the history of the earth...#7,8 top gray layer is the Dakota...near the top is a white band the Carmel limestone...then red Navajo sandstone...at the bottom the dark Metamorphic rock Gneiss!

Thanks for your comments, Gents.  Really enjoying this title, as well :):Cuppa:

 

Post Edit:  I hope they release a Jet Ranger, or other established rotor craft.  That would be a great addition to the hangar!

For those flying AF2, I have a flight recommendation, which I am in right now,

 

Set sim to ULTRA, set clouds sliders (all of them) full right,

Set FPS limiter to the far left (Off)

 

Fly from the Grand Canyon National Park

Set the UT Time to 11:55, and take off in the modded C172, (that has been modded for a 'dark' start, not needed, but simply a suggestion)

Take off, and set a North course to place yourself over the center of the Grand Canyon at 8,000 feet on the autopilot.

 

Use the C172 for the best view (high wing)

 

You will catch the developing morning/dawn, as shadows play and cast along the sheer cliffs of the Grand Canyon.  Over the Canyon, head in an Easterly direction via Autopilot at suggested 8,0000 feet.  The flight simulation in front of you, will take your breath away, in its realism.  I know, it did mine. Simply stunning.  Good flights!
