Great screenies, Will. There is always a lot to see especially in your airport shots !

It's aways a pleasure to follow your interesting flights, Ryan!!

Superb screenies as always, buddy! But the VC shots I like the most !

Send them over to Boeing, Filou. They can use them for their ad campaigns 😊

Awaroa is located in the depths of the Abel Tasman National Park on the South Island and the Awaroa Lodge is well worth a stay-over for a couple of days, so you can explore the beautiful area. Awaroa beach, also known as “Peoples Beach”, made headlines in 2016, when its former owner planned to sell this property. Not wanting to see this popular holiday destination fall into private ownership, two Christchurch men launched a crowdfunding campaign that saw the beach purchased for NZ$2.8 million and handed over to the Department of Conservation for current and future generations to enjoy. Our plane, as unique as Awaroa, is the 1917 French Dorand AR1. This map should give you a rough idea, from where I take off. On my way to Wellington, I pass by Duncan Bay and Marlborough Sounds. What a beautiful area to pass over low and slow. Passing over Marlborough Sounds, west of the Endeavour Inlet Passing the last body of land of the South Island and on to the Cook Strait, which is considered one of the most dangerous and unpredictable waters in the world. So I will cross it at its narrowest point, where it is 22 km (14 mi) wide North Island is dead ahead Before I land at Wellington Intern. I want to explore a bit the city’s scenery Thanks for viewing

Many thanks, Jean Marc, maybe you can add some of your interesting liveries to this plane 😊 And i agree with you, vintage style pilots for these planes would be great!

+1 !!

I agree, Kiwis in general are a great bunch of people to have around. I was once in Tauranga and was even invited to a free ride in a Boeing Stearman. Unbelievable!

Superb shots, buddy. But I don't think that the water body freezes during winter, This is something Asobo needs to work on 😊

Many thanks Johnny and Patrick for your comments!

Thanks my friends for commenting ! Hahaha, absolutely.

Sorry, small mistake on my side, I forgot to delete the default Milford Sound scenery. Now the area around the waterfall looks great:

Hi Andy, I definitely agree, the ORBX mesh causes severe issues with this add-on. I also haven’t seen any noteworthy improvement, when it is installed, over vanilla MSFS NZ. Except for one, I don’t have any issues with this add-on though. When you look at the first picture, you can see some floating rock formation near the water fall. Coming to the mountain tops, do you think they look less round than on your shots? Here are my settings. I have an AMD card and haven’t done anything with it, when it comes to finetuning

Superb shots of this interesting scenery Johnny !!

Very nice screenies, buddy !

Great shots, Darryl !

Above Lake Rotoroa Near Lake Brunner On the lower left side one can spot part of Lake Tasman Along the Tasman River into Mt. Cook NZMC Thanks for viewing

Many thanks, P_7878. I have been only once to the South Island but a couple of times to its Northern sibling 😊

You are not alone Michael, it happened and still happens to me too. A 540MB add-on was supposed to take 25 minutes to download and I have a 500MB/sec download connection. Downloading 2.5 GB documentaries from the German ARD Mediathek takes less than 30 seconds. But anything from flightsim.to takes an eternity. Maybe we are both too old 😀😊

Excellent shots and nice liveries as always, Jan !!

Fantastic shots, buddy, although the Connie only started taking to the air in 1943. I have the whole series of these airports and I just love flying around these airports with a vintage plane 🙂

Many thanks for commenting Jan and Ryan !! And Wing Z, your video is superb!! Thanks for uploading it here. For some strange reasons, you have less trees than I have in my scenery at the end of the strip.

That looks very nice indeed. I have to get that one too 🙂

Thank you all for your kind comments, my friends !! Absolutely! I also like the Mt. Cook airport a lot. Here is a link to the Bridge Valley airstrip. There are more similar places on the .to site: https://flightsim.to/file/59971/bridge-valley-airstrip-nelson-new-zealand-rural-airfield Hahaha, you are right. That strip doesn't deserve that 😄

Fantastic shots Will !! And the livery is awesome too.
