You can fly there to see if this guy is correct 🤣

 

this is why people need a license to breed, and why i see pod casters or influencers as humans

. The Darwin area is interesting too as I recall from P3D.  

But, if I have learned one thing in MSFS it is to boldly go where no simmer has gone before and look for new flying grounds ! 

 

well Darwin has had a massive facelift, the imagery now is from a weekend in june-Sep 2018 (pre wet season) opposed to 2013, not much difference in years however there has been huge changes just in that time frame including the post cyclone Marcus changes to the town after 2017

my suburb now exists as I can see my car, camper parked in front of my house that was previously bush

Same reaction here... he is no "fool", but is he serious? 🤫

Just flew into Sunshine Coast Airport in Queensland, looks great flying along the coast, nice beaches, good scenery, this is going to be a fun place to fly my Kodiak.

yes but ... what if he is right? can some users from down under comment and send proof images to show they are upright or upside down?

because according to this proof, why else would these guys write their letters upside down?

Yeah I have no idea if this update fixed it (though I hope so)  but pre WU7 the game had you landing on an old closed North/South runway (18/36)  that has not been used for years and the real runway (13/31)  was totally missing,  whereas the Shunt Scenery YBSU used the actual current correct runway 13/31 and has pretty good detail of the airport and even some surrounding buildings in the vicinity.

 

The old YBSU Pre-2016

Having been to Australia, I can confirm that the constellations that are visible from both north and south of the equator e.g. Orion appear upside down relative to my usual  orientation seen from near Toronto.  Hard to believe people can believe this flat earth stuff.

Well the Aussie attitude is pretty much that we are simply the best and the rest of the world just needs to recognise it ....

that's what happens when you spend your whole life upside down.
