September 4, 20232 yr Found some excellent new freeware scenery so I did a flight from KBID to KSYR (Verticalsim) in the Aerobask DA50RG. The new diamond single is a joy to fly and I was able to sit in one at Oshkosh... it's just a unique plane that is very modern. I'd love to own one someday!

September 5, 20232 yr XP12 looking pretty good here. Ryan, I like the way your posts are not just a series of pictures, but convey a complete situation (changing weather, flying challenges, scenery observations, etc.) regarding a flight from beginning to end...and even what you're planning to do after you land. 🙂 Makes it feel like a real flight that actually happened!

September 5, 20232 yr Aerobask's DA50RG is my absolute favourite aircraft to fly in either sim and you've chosen my go-to livery to boot. An excellent series of images Ryan. Thanks for sharing them with us.
September 6, 20232 yr No matter which simulator, your pictures are always gorgeous! And I also always enjoy your way of presenting them. Very entertaining and informative Edited September 6, 20232 yr by Tim-HH Greetings Tim My files on Flightsim.to i5 12600K | 32Gb | RTX 4080

Thanks for sharing them with us. Yes indeed. Let's get one in MSFS! 22 hours ago, SP2472 said: Beautiful screens as always Ryan, I guess you switch simulators often. Darryl Probably MSFS 80% of the time... XP12 20%. If I can fly with ortho and those nice skies it makes using 12 worth it. I mostly fly in my local midwest area and NE of USA. 2 hours ago, Tim-HH said: No matter which simulator, your pictures are always gorgeous! And I also always enjoy your way of presenting them.

September 9, 20232 yr Marvelous set of pictures, Ryan. Complete and full of details...I recall the Aerobask planes were always your favorites in XP.... Yes, it's late summer already...it has been a glorious Summer around here in Chicago, Ryan...Yesterday's weather was somewhat like what you show...cloudy and cool...with some rain... [Liked your Copilot, btw....🙂 ...and clearly you, as the PIC, must have handled the turbulent weather rather well ...]

The atmosphere is all default though.
