Fall City to Anacortes

[andiflyit 473]

Hi all,

now I felt inspired by Ryan Butterworths' great post "Gorgeous PNW - Fall City to Anacortes" from msfs. And I did the same flight but in P3d. 🙂

This is for fun just to compare my older scenery with the new one and I think it doesn't look so bad.

Of course the moddeling is improved and another big difference is the light environment of msfs. This will come up with P3dv6 as well,

but the question will be how long it will take to bring addons to v6. Currently Orbx works on the basics, the libs and the global stuff.

I used the Eurocopter instead of a Cessna just because i like to fly heli these days. I cannot let the cyclic loose in that heli so I have to stop the sim to go outside for the shot. 

 

Will have a break posting than because there is a lot "andiflyit" on page 1 of the forum. But it's fun and I'll be back.🙂

 

So, it sits on the ground at Fall City

This here is scenery for W16 First Air which is not yet modelled for msfs if I am right.

Follow the train and you will reach Harvey Field.

KPAE Pain Field in the background and Everett to the right.

Pudget sound and the Olympic mountains.

Whitehorse Mountain and Three Fingers if Ryan is right, didn't check this.

Only basic scenery here for Camano Island Airfield 13W, not really modelled.

And Whitbey Island NAS.

And here we go, coffee is waiting!

In this scenery the refinery is modelled very nicely, you can see it in the background.

Found Runway 18, most talented....🙃

I am looking for a heli pad but there is none.

That should do it.

Thank you very much for viewing!

Cheers

Andreas

Yeah with true earth it still looks pretty darn good!

Nice pics!  I can't begin to think of how much I've spent on Orbx products haha.

Thank you and yes, the True Earth makes the difference because it's orthoscenery featuring nice colors, same as in msfs.

Started nearly 10 years ago to collect all these little airports for FSX and with 64-bit P3d4 the True Earth came in .  True Earth cannot be installed on 32-bit.
