LOL, well the textures are actually pretty accurate overall because the 'Great Salt River' is kind of a joke the locals tell to out of towners! :happy:  It is a natural riverbed however since they put in a series of dams way up river in the mountains in the last century, there's almost never any running water in the riverbed within the metro Phoenix portion.  99.9% of the time it's a dry, rocky depression.

The 'river' shown above is Tempe Town Lake, which is completely artificial and had to be filled by pumping water in...not from damming the river because there's no flowing water in that part of town.

Yeah, we do some pretty crazy things out here in the desert...must be the heat!  :gaul:

Wow Paul, I would be lucky to do all that in a week, around 2000 nm trim to get to KSFO and another 2500 from KSFO to KIAD.

Thats some flying for a night. That's pulling an "all nighter" if there ever was one :biggrin:

Enjoy :cool:

All masterpieces of scenery.

I had no idea it was coming out.  I bought KPHX on 1/18/18 and I am not sure what version I have.  Is here a way to tell if I have v1 or v2?

Paul, wow yeah that's tricky because you purchased on the day v2 was released so it just depends on the timing.

If it was still Version 1, it will have installed with the old method which uses the Couatl Addon Manager. If you got version 2 it should have installed under Flightbeam's own FB Manager utility, so that's the best way to tell.

Even if you happened to get v1, you're still entitled to the free upgrade but you'll have to go through the update process.

Cheers, Kevin

This is very commonplace for my daily schedule. Flightbeam and many other companies make flight training/simulation an immersive experience that is quite excellent.   

Currently I'm pre-planning tonight's flight from KIAD to LSZH in the PMDG 744 V3 checking out the new FS2Crew version 1.1 

I would fly during the day today, but I have a house full of company intended to celebrate a friends birthday, and the intention is to do lots of VR entertainment. I will still have other PC's available to fly in FS1-FS9, FSX-SE, MS Flight, FSW or XP-11 for family and friends to enjoy if they wish. 

There is always a flight sim running at my house. :gaul:
