St Mawgan

Eh? I was in the South West today and the South. All very green except the occasional brown ploughed field.

It doesn't quite reach my current house unfortunately, but I flew over the last one earlier and it was almost perfect. I've been flying a lot today (avoiding the Thames which I still can't bring myself to look at) and it is pretty stunning.

It does look even better with Orbx London I think. I took GB South off to start with but I'll add it back now. I only noticed that the Tamar Bridge was duplicated.

I live and fly in the UK. Looks pretty great with default or Bing latest to me. Brown, yellow and 1000 shades of green is what I am seeing. Just like when I look out of a real aircraft window. I only fly south of Watford if that makes a difference.

No clue what my FPS are (ever, actually) but it feels pretty good to me. I have a tiny hit having Orbx landmarks still installed, but overall it's more fluid than before.

WU17 is not a mandatory update. Neither were WU's 1 to 16.

Do you wear sunglasses when simming?

The issues with the Thames have now been officially logged as a bug so should be fixed, you'd think. You can vote and add yourself to those affected here (except of course this affects everyone who can see, so .........) https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/wu17-river-thames-worse-than-before-now-looks-like-tide-is-out/649944/24

I find that wearing blue socks helps. Gives me another 6 or 7 fps. But only on Wednesdays (obviously!)

Love this shot -

Only smoke, but a lot of it. The only way to remove it was to remove the F-86. It happens with the SF260 as well I've read. I won't put the F-86 back on until that's been fixed. The T6 is amazing though. I've been flying it almost exclusively since v1.1 came out.

Does look good. Unfortunately the Shrike F-86 conflicts with my amazing new T6A so this would do instead!
