Over Scotland in a P-38


Recommended Posts

This is just over a tiny part of Scotland. I take off from Oban Airport south of Loch Creran and east of Mull. All of this is way north of Glasgow

Loch Creran lies behind me

South-west of the Cairngorms National Park

Near the Blackwater Reservoir and the Meall a Bhalach mountain. Ask me again in ten seconds and I couldn’t remember that name. Maybe Andy can 😃

This looks very much like the countryside in Germany, but this is above the river Spey

And now you’ll see, why I did this flight in the first place. It has something to do with “Water of Life”, some people might call it Single Malt or simply whisky. Here I am above the Glenallachie Distillery near the Glenallachie Cottages

After this, I am heading toward Dufftown, home of a whisky distillery that might be more familiar to you

Behind me is the Glenfiddich Distillery and to my right are the remains of the Balvenie Castle

Ooops, no idea, what happened, postimage has always worked for me here. Please allow me a dumb question, what is "Direct Link"?

Thanks, I'll give this another try.

Hmm, still no joy, as you have to click on the link to see the image. Maybe I should give up posting here. The funny thing is, I post the same pictures with the same links on two other flightsim sites and there they work without any issues. And my older threads until very recently all worked. Maybe Avsim has done something to this site that is now different. I have already sent them a notice, but so far they haven't replied.

Hi Bernd,

I use imgur, not postimg, but I guess it might be the same thing there. It looks like part of avsim's recent maintenance was an "upgrade" of the forum software. Can't say I much like the look of it now (too much white space) but it probably also change the way pix have to be posted. Same thing happened with Orbx a couple of years back.

I've posted a test image here - https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/648459-test-post/ It should show you what you need to do (if postimg is anything like imgur)

OK, it looks like my link doesn't work. But take a look at my "test post" post. There's an image there that might help.

I think Avsim switched to direct link like the other flightsim sites, works great Bernd I have a post about direct link.

I'll try imgur now

https://imgur.com/a/YnnYOxE

Once I uploaded my image to imgur, I was never shown the option to a direct link. It just told me to grab the link. And this is the outcome. When you click on it you can see the image, but it will not show up here on its own.
