December 20, 20196 yr Hey Guys. I like to fly in the snow, and I like to use ActiveSky. Yes i realize I can manually set snow, but I generally like to use real world weather. Most of my flying is in the US. Though I have scenery for Edmonton, YYZ, and YUL. Also have the usual suspects. DEN,SLC,BOS,ORD,MSP,JAC,LGA,JFK,PHL,DTW. I am considering the new orbx Gothenburg to help increase the odds I have somewhere to fly in the snow. I don't mind doing fake flights like BOS-Gothenburg. But am I overlooking any obvious snowy airports with high quality scenery for P3DV4? Thanks.

December 20, 20196 yr Author Yeah I do that all the time on my radar app. Lately I've just been unlucky. Since I fly on VATSIM most of the time, it's important for me to have real world weather. 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next

December 20, 20196 yr ORBX: GPI,SUN,BZN,EGE,TEX,TVL,WYS,IDA,MBS,PAJN - they're all like $12 right now. Lots of snow all winter long. Fly the ski routes! I have been particularly enjoying EGE, GPI, BZN. 5800X3D | Radeon RX 6900XT
December 20, 20196 yr Author May check Bozeman. I only fly airliners. So the small ga ones won’t work. I’m really looking hard at the new orbx Sweden airport too 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next

December 20, 20196 yr Author thanks all. Of course it always snows in places I don't have the scenery. Or in the places I do when I can't fly. 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next

I think SUN, WYS, TEX and maybe IDA only see regional jets, but the others all see mainline airline service. 5800X3D | Radeon RX 6900XT
