I recognized Lucern.

Another one of those areas we would have in photogrammetry if this were based on googles dataset... *sigh*...

No one will ever complain about the grass now hopefully... Well, one less thing for people here to worry about 😁

Don't be silly.  Some people will always find something to gripe about.

The first video, in the background, that jet seems to be connected to a jetway that isn't connected to a building 😁

Yeah, I couldn't see it from there either.

I've put them on YouTube (thankfully it was a quick upload) and embedded them in the main post. Should be viewable now.

The video with the storm blowing by while aircraft is on ground is insane! I love it! Looks very convincing and real check out the anvil/thunderhead (I think anyway?) in far background - this is the best weather I've seen yet - great job Asobo! Cheers 👌

More interesting info, as always. Love the shot of Lake Lucerne, have been fortunate enough to travel there so really enjoyed that shot.

 

Also enjoyed the first shot of the Cessna with flaps down on taxiway, (a little close to the edge there... 😉) can't tell if it's early morning or late evening but the atmosphere is enticing...

 

Finally, Closed Beta in July, there's some exciting news for everyone!

Nice shot of Vegas, even if it is out of focus.

There weren’t stairs available, so they had to improvise

Looks like a possible holiday release since the beta is coming in July!

Wondering if possible invites coming in the future since I will upgrade my systems memory to 32gb DDR-4 3600 next week, signed up ages ago.

You all need to pause the timelapse video and see the AI ATC chatter text for some interesting ATC Instructions...

Next wave of invites are coming with the next Alpha update, which should be next week.

Two images by whitelight506 are the same, or seem to be the same, ones with the red Bonanza in them.

Screenshots seem to be better quality this week I'd say.

Wait a second. It looks like they didn't actually quote anyone from AVSIM, but made the quote up themselves. Have to say it's extremely accurate...

Gibraltar seems to have a custom mesh

Seems like they used this thread as inspiration?
