Jack Sawyer Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I love math, always have. My mind is always thinking of goofy things to run numbers on. So yesterday I was ruminating about how many airports there are in the real world and in the sim world. They say around 25,000 right? I may be wrong. Now, say you wanted to land at all of them? How long would it take, but wait! There's a catch. To experience the beauty of Orbx you'd need to visit in all four seasons and at night. So that's 25K x 5? That's 125,000 separate landings. Good grief, do we have long enough life spans to even attempt it? So I guess the take-away is I'll have to be selective but I have so much Orbx stuff now I wonder if I'll ever get to explore it all and I want more!

Guest Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 The trouble is Orbx is addictive. Once you start you can't bloody well stop! err, I'm glad to say. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 Well, if my calculations are correct, if you made 25 landings per day it would take 5000 days, divided by 365 = 13.69 years! That's a lot of flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
