Larry_R Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Here are a couple of real life shots to go with Bernd's great shots of his trip from Refuge Cove to Victoria. You can see Pelly Island ahead beyond which seaplanes must be off step. Flying up to Victoria on a winter day like this from a nearly fogged in Seattle is magical.

BradB Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Great RL snaps Larry , maybe someday you could come out with the seaplane base at Tipella . I sure do miss flying in and out of there . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Harmes Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Awesome shots Larry. I do love seeing real life photos of places we visit regularly in the sim. It just completes the connection. Of course being there is even better. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry_R Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thank Guys, But just to be clear, none of the corresponding scenery bits I've done would be visible in these RL shots. What you see in Bernd's shots on the approach to Victoria is a combination Jon Patch's Vic Plus on top of FTX PNW. Although PNW was the first region published, I think the accuracy and detail is still absolutely amazing. For example, there are over 2600 marine lights accurately placed and with appropriate light characteristics by my count. Think of what it took Holger to do that.
