July 30, 20223 yr With the new ORBX mesh for South America, which I like a lot. But see for yourself 🙂    Above the Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, here the amazing Cono Galcier   Ok, Torres del Paine is a bit of a let down  North of the Parque Nacional Bernardo O’Higgins. This looks just incredible    South of the Parque Nacional Laguna San Rafael     Further north we find less snow    We turn NW towards Santiago  At FL180 and descending into the Santiago valley. Descending? Now? You can’t be serious!!   The mountains are finally behind us! Over a small town north of Santiago. It’s called Colina and that light blue lake down there interests me. Wikipedia says this: Ayres de Chicureo is a locality in the province of Chacabuco north of Greater Santiago and this light blue lake is artificial and is being used as huge swimming pool  Welcome to SCEL Santiago   Thanks for viewing  Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
July 30, 20223 yr Thanks for this. Always enjoy seeing and exploring Chile in the sim. My favorite base of operations is Iquique on the coast in the far north of Chile. Huge 3,000 ft. mountain of sand parallels the runway. Haven't seen Iquique in MSFS yet though, because I haven't tackled purchase/installation of MSFS yet. Would love to see screens of the airport and area, though, if you could oblige. John

John Many thanks, John, yes of course I can do. It will be a separate thread, as I can't add more pics here.

That's the beauty about not flying in the real world, you can even enjoy a glass of wine while you sit in front of your monitor and explore the world 😄😄  56 minutes ago, johnbow72 said: De’ja vue In it’s finest Bernd . 😉 Hahaha, I knew you would come up with something like that 😄 Edited July 30, 20223 yr by bernd1151 Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
July 31, 20223 yr Spectacular pictures, bernd, of a most remarkable geographical region of the world...! (Like the Atlas Air 747 too, they would be the very last carrier to receive a 747 (-8F) ...so, the 747 saga will end with them...) ...

All good stories, even the one of the 747, must come to an end eventually. That is why I like it so much that we can keep it alive in our sims 🙂 Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
