I flew PNW again tonight (Windhover is making some really great freeware for the area - this gem came a few days ago:  https://flightsim.to/file/26906/2s1-vashon-municipal-airport-vashon-washington)

And there was that fog layer again...  I shot a few approaches in an unknown plane with unknown avionics that I cannot write about LOL....all sorts of traditional nav and rnav(gps) approaches 😉  KPWT was OVC004 and about a 1 mile of vis.

Great to see Vashon Island , Orbx has been very slow on porting over any PNW sceneries for MSFS .

I agree.  However I noticed the textures aren't really amazing in MSFS.  I think they are straight porting them from P3D.  I'm not saying there isn't a lot of work involved but just that the textures aren't amazing.

I agree , Orbx lately has just become another reseller of other developer's products . Ever since JV left , there products and the forum have gone downhill IMHO .
