The new Ultimate Realism Pack combined with the Eddie Sky Pack is amazing! I was always into Reshade/SweetFX (even ENB in my FSX days), and this is one of the best. It might be a bit too blue, but those sunrises/sunsets... amazing.
So I took my trusty Laminar C172 for a spin from my KHAF Half Moon Bay to KTRK Truckee Tahoe. A predawn flight over San Franciso Bay, and then heading out to the mountains for a fun day ahead!
Getting ready for the red-eye departure in my hangar, it's 4:30 in the morning
Taxiing to the runway. Have to climb out quickly, lest I wake up the neighbors...
The sun comes up over the northern part of the Bay
WOW
The outskirts of Sacramento
Getting closer to Lake Tahoe
The city of Lake Valley, and the lake
On final for Truckee. Watch out for the crosswind!
And happily landed! It's still early morning, and the whole day is ahead!
