Lofoten Islands

A couple of days ago I watched a Lofoten Islands documentary and thought to myself, gosh I would like to visit that place in real life.

And then I remembered that Norway and the Lofoten Islands have been ORBXed, so why not try it first in your P3D. We take off from the southern most airport, called ROST (ENRS) and head south first to circle the last large rock formation

Luckily it has received the usual fine ORBX treatment, otherwise there would be nothing here. ROST is a terribly busy airport, last year it had seen a total of 9,200 visitors ;)

After having circled it we fly up north

Another great little detail

One thing you can never be sure of here is the weather

What an amazing scenery. Without that documentary on TV, I would have never flown here

Oh, oh

And this last picture, taken in real life in the area I have just flown in, is just a small reminder/teaser for Richard, should he see this post

Stunning set of shots. Nice to see that people are still flying the Do 27. One of my favorite aircrafts. It would be grest if it got a nice p3d revamp.

Btw sre your rear windows also opaque?

Thanks Eberhard. The Do 27 and the Piper Cheyenne are my most favorite aircrafts. Both are from Digital Aviation and I have them still my FS9 days, although they are now the FSX version. And both fly in P3D 3.4. I got rid of the opaque rear window with the free Aerosoft D-ENTE livery. In it there was a fix for it. I just applied it for all my other Do 27 liveries and it worked great

Wonderful trip. The Lofotens are certainly the most stunning landscape of Norway 

I fully agree with you, Richard. Maybe one day we can even experience here your Aurora Borealis :D

Some nice perspectives and comparisons here, Bernd. Good to see what EU NOR can do - and where the limits are. And... it is much better to fly there in the sim than just reading a book.

Thanks Gerold

Those are amazing views of a spectacular landscape Bernd.

The outside shots are especially lifelike.

Another part of the world, that like many others, I had never heard of and probably neve would have if it had not been for the forums.

I have been inspired to do several flights after seeing a TV show.
