Beautiful ! 

David is doing a really good job bringing to life this beautiful country ! He deserves all the compliments in the world for doing it and doing it for FREE !  

I am waiting for more addons of Georgia. 

 

Thank you David ! 

Marvelous adaptation of David's work! True winter wonderland!

Nice. Especially that last one. I needed that seasonal switcheroo right about now...it's 93 degrees F. here.

Thank you guys,

to see that a scenery is used and liked is really all a freeware developer can ask for. And kiwi is really promoting it the best way possible.

The winter is indeed on the top of the list for the next big update. Right now it only happens in January, which is due to the simulator default seasons. I guess it is safe to say, that there is mostly snow from November to February or even March. On top of that snow masses around the airport are needed and of course snow textures for the runway. But this is something for the next winter maybe... not this one..

And I already work on quite a few airports, which will give you a lot of different destinations to try... from the bushstrip in Pskhu, Abkhazia to the international airport of Kutaisi.

But until then, be sure to check out my trip recommendations in the manual. There are a ton of great freeware available in the area. Sochi, Tbilisi, Erevan, Trabzon, you name it... 

Red over white... so scenic. But my favourite is the night picture.

Kiwi, how do they look before photoshop? anyway, grand pictures!

Looks so COLD, speaking from one tolerating 100+ temperatures today. 

Many thanks to all!

 The difference is not very noticeable. Fixed a horizon, cropped excess, increased sharpness. The second screenshot added a glare in the sun. Under the spoiler 3 screenshots without processing.

Hey kiwi,

I found a cool video:

Really amazing approach! And who wants to replicate and record it, can take part in a little competition of the German FS Magazin! Your winter pics come pretty close to what we see in the video... just the runway is not full of snow 🙂

Yes, David! amazing video! Great weather and great flight over the tops of the mountains. I was convinced again how well your scene was made.
