February 20, 20188 yr Michael, Incredibly great shots mate. I wonder if it will ever be possible, in my lifetime, to get graphics (distance and close up) like this using VR? Can I ask if you are Venezualan, have a older brother (Henry) and ever live on Magnetic Island? Cheers Tony Chilcott Tony Chilcott. My System. Motherboard.

I only gave XP11.20vr2 a short try, using my iPhone, a VR headset and VRSteam. Didn’t work too well, but I’ll have an eye on the further development of XP‘s VR compability, as I’m pretty sure, that VR is THE next „big thing“ for us flight simmers! :-) No, brother, I’m German, but I’d love to visit Venezuela one day. ;-)
February 20, 20188 yr Michael, Thanks for your VR comments mate. I agree totally with you that VR is the next big think and I am very cautiously going to enter this particular market. Most comments I hear(read) are that whilst resolutions leave a lot to be desired, the feeling of immersion outweighs all of the "cons" I can't wait to get into it but I am waiting for some hands on comments with the upcoming Pimax 8k. At the moment it looks like a "toss up" with the Pimax and the Oddyssy. Magic Leap might also bear watching. I have some very old memories (I cannot believe I can go back that far LOL) of growing up on Magnetic Island (North Queensland, Australia) and the previously mentioned Schmitt boys were a big part of that. I guess that was a big leap in the wrong direction but I was hoping. Cheers and I enjoyed your eclipse post too Tony Tony Chilcott. My System. Motherboard.

You never know, so the only fault would have been, not to ask, right? ;-) VR is a truly exciting topic. And I’m totally with you, the immersion factor is unbelievable! In 2 or three years, we’ll be a huge step further in the right direction, with higher resolution for affordable prices! Thanks again for your kind words, and always three greens!
February 20, 20188 yr You've really got an eye for it. Great details. DC-3 wing shot is my favorite! John

February 20, 20188 yr Great shots once again. Have been concentrating on P3D lately. This makes me want to go back to X-Plane. Got a day off work, so I know what I'll be doing! Pete
