Jack Sawyer Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Bought this little toy the other day. The Corvallis. Have a couple of issues with it but maybe it's me. Anyway, wanted to test it on a flight from Lake Tahoe to Blue Canyon Nyack. KTLV - KBLU, took off just after dawn. Orbx Global, Vector, N/A LC, Trees, KTLV, KBLU, AS16 on with default P3D clouds, and Adam's latest and greatest PTA preset 20_07. No nose wheel steering, so it takes some getting used to. Here we go! Love that lake in winter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hwh86 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Stunning shots Jack, a very good choice of points A and B to showcase the Orbx/FTX scenery. Cheers, Les Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Beautiful series of shots Jack. I have made that trip several times, a most enjoyable flight. Hope you enjoy the Corvalis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MZee1960 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Great shots, Jack ! This AC reminds me a lot of the SR22 GTSX Turbo, but 'without' the framerate penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Les Thanks Les! I'm making a Orbx to Orbx airport flight, wanna land at them all. 16 hours ago, VH-KDK said: Beautiful series of shots Jack.

Might be throttle issues, don't know. They said it was supposed to be for P3D. 16 hours ago, Stillwater said: Oh, this plane seems to fit to these airport sizes very well...!

The biggest little town in the west. 6 hours ago, dolf8857 said: All smashing shots here Jack! Thanks Dolf! 4 hours ago, FSRobert said: Jack, brilliant action.
