Chance in a lifetime. Hope it doesn't rain.

Not sure how your life expectancy is going, but if you can, you only have to wait 7 more years for another.

That will be more or less directly over my house! Great time to visit beautiful Atlantic Canada. Have room for a few on sofas, spare bed and lots of floor space for air mattresses. All can take turns flying Prepar3D v9.2 in the holograph room! 

Kindest regards,

Flight sim has accurate positioning of sun and moon and stars (if you have autostarx available in the library) but the textures just appear on top of each other and the moon texture isn't going to block out the glow of the sun.

A Solar Eclipse in P3D: LOL is this for real

Let's get a more accurate ACT, and weather systems before we start worrying about solar eclipses

That 2024 solar eclipse is now a major target for me....

I can highly recommend the free astronomy software "Stellarium". Everything in there is 100% accurate.

Just saw this posted on FB. Seems FSW does simulate it just not very well. (Not sure if link works. Its to the FSW group posted my Jordan King with the photo)
