    Thanks Sniper. It was like going into a white hole. Cam out the other side unscathed.

    When you get around to TE Oregon for XP12 please get rid of all the blue streets.

    I was 5 minutes from Saginaw when my wife said supper was ready.

    Well doggone. I was unaware of the Ryzen 7 580X3D since I had just been looking at Ryzen 9s. Will check it out.

    I updated my machine early this year. i have concluded that my Ryzen 3800X is fast enough most of the time, but I would benefit from something faster. I am considering a Ryzen 5900X but am waiting for the price to come down more. The Radeon 6800X does pretty good, with 16gb of ram. I have a two tb m2 drive with just P3D on it. Its about three quarters full. I have no plans to go to MSFS but will probably go with Xplane 12 after a bit more time. A 2tb ssd is within my price range so will probably add that, put XPlane 12 on it and add the 5900x before the end of the year. Will see if I can overclock it to 5.0 ghz. I have not heard anyone opine on how well Xplane 12 even outs the workloads between the processor cores and the video card. My underlying strategy on this stuff is to not go for the most recent top of the line components but wait until they have been around for a year or so and the price has dropped..

    Out over eastern Oregon at FL 30 on a flight from Medford to Idaho Falls.

    Seems like every flight from Southern California to Medford, Oregon goes right by Mt. Shasta.

    Great shots of a beautiful airplane!
  10. Bullfox

    Crossing over KBUR at FL 30 on a flight from KSAN to KMFR. Frame rates dropped a bit.

    This is a flight in the Sabreliiner from Edmonton, Canada to Medford, Oregon mostly at 40,000 feet.
  16. Bullfox
    Excellent shots. This looks like P3D. Interesting the way the engines are mounted.

    A direct GPS flight from Palm Springs to Medford takes you right up the spine of the Sierras, right over Lake Tahoe, and just to the east of Mt. Shasta. This flight is at 20,000 feet.

    Still waiting for KBOI in P3D.

    Over Klamath Lake on the way to KSUN.

    To the left of the sun is Mount McLaughlin over 8000 feet high. Above the Saberliner is Coker Butte, a couple of hundred feet high. To the right is Roxy Anne Mountain, about 3000 feet, a county park at the summit, and a very nice winery on the lower slopes. A morning flight to somewhere, not yet sure where. in the offing.

    Looks like one of my landings.

    Its da Saberliner by Aeroplane Heaven, freeware on Orbx Direct. Its not a study aircraft but its a real hoot to fly. Pretty basic P3D, but you need the manual because there are lots of switches in odd places and almost all do something. You have to watch your speed. It just keeps accelerating at high throttle settings. The engines take a while to spool up and down. Find the speed brakes and use them. I assigned the speed brakes to the spoiler axis and there is a reverser axis command that you need to keep from shooting off the end of the runway. The "manual" says approach at 90 knots but it stalls at 120 on the tiny airspeed indicator needle. Maybe knots vs mph problem. Orbx central wants to put the Saberliner in the Orbx library but P3d could not find it there and the program just hung. There are three versions which I just moved into the P3D airplane folder and it loaded fine after I moved the Saberliner folder out of the Orbx library to the desktop and put the two effects files in the P3D effects folder..

    Gotta read the manual.

    I left the landing light on.

    A flight from West Wind 7WA3 to De Vere Field 2W1 with enhanced atmospherics in P3D5 and Rex Sky Force. Too hot and smoky in southern Oregon for a couple of days to work on the garden railroad so I'm back to siming for a while.
