Jack Sawyer Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 All Orbx - AS4 weather on. Took off from MUSC in Cuba. On takeoff I couldn't believe it, the winds threw this giant plane around like it was a leaf. In the storm the turbulence was amazing, just like the real hurricane YT's I've been watching and I have sensible settings in AS4 too as far as turbulence goes. Flew to Miami and landed but it was quite a bumpy ride, I LOVED it! Look at that weather radar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mickel, I've had this, it was the first one I bought for V4. And no more Bogota flights. Gotta figure some other SA routes though. 5 minutes ago, Anthin Delahunt said: Great shots Jack.Your weather radar looks really scary.At least ya made it in one piece. Anthin. Thanks Anthin. It was scary and the turbulence took out a couple of systems too. Very realistic. 1 minute ago, BradB said: I guess nobody told you Jack that MIA is closed , anyway be careful down there in GA . Irma is headed your way . Cheers John I knew it was closed John but as soon as I told them who I was they gave me special dispensation! Yeah, it's heading our way and we have flash flood warnings and there's a run on gas and Publix is a mad house. People are going crazy here. I just don't want the tornados these hurricanes spawn. Been through too many of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Adam, it already is gonna ng diwnhill, flash flood warnings, tornado watches, and heavy wind warnings. They still don't know if we'll see a tropical storm or a CAT 1 hurricane. Was extremely windy today and unseasonably cool, same tomorrow which is great for hiking. But Sunday night and Monday will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Thanks Stewart, we're now under a tropical storm warning, and have very strong sustained 25 mph winds. Clear skies but extremely windy, gonna hike anyway because next few days it'll be flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I missed this set first time around Jack . Excellent shots my friend. It is amazing how you can capture and experience real life weather. I must try a big airliner sometime soon. I hope that you stay safe with the weather.

Stillwater Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Thanks for securing all these people, jack. Though... maybe you should have been flying a bit further to the inland than MIA? PS: I wonder if they had onboard service with hot tea on that flight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Along with Paul I have missed this one. Top class set Jack and very interesting depiction of this terrible weather event. I trust you got out of MIA in time. Stay safe and take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weather, we're under a tropical storm warning until further notice. People are losing their minds. Just got back in from a hike. Winds a constant 30 mph, many trees and branches down in the forest. All schools closed for the next two days. We're expecting flooding and winds of 75 mph. Me, I'm hoping it all fizzles out. 1 hour ago, fly37 said: Stay Safe Jack! Incredible real shot! Thanks Gianni! 1 hour ago, Stillwater said: Thanks for securing all these people, jack.

Hi Gerold, I deliberately chose Miami so I could see how well the weather would be represented by AS4, and it was life like. No hot tea, all the FA's had to be buckled in. 56 minutes ago, bernd1151 said: Superb shots my friend and stay safe! Service might have been a bit slow on this one Thanks Bernd! Yup, I had to get my own tea! 56 minutes ago, VH-KDK said: Along with Paul I have missed this one. Top class set Jack and very interesting depiction of this terrible weather event.
