Airwolf Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Great shots. There was a time just a few months ago, we would all would have faced ooms with these addons in the 32 bit era. It is amazing on what can be done with 64bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Airwolf, and I was amazed too because I had every last slider maxed out in P3D and not one worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradB Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 When the day comes when I can't CTL-E to start my props , then that will be the day when I give up my wings . But as our friend Jack reminds us : …condition, grounded, but determined to try… words to live by my friend . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I'm grounded but I am determined very much to try. 33 minutes ago, Ken Terry said: Jack, fascinating set of excellent pictures, what level of FPS were you getting mid flight and arrival at KLAX?

VH-KDK Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Top class set and flight Jack. It must give you a great sense of accomplishment when you do a flight like this. Well done. 4 hours ago, BradB said: When the day comes when I can't CTL-E to start my props , then that will be the day when I give up my wings .

I am definitely a Ctrl+E aviator like you and just want to get up in the air and enjoy the view. This is the beauty of FS that there is something in it for everyone.

paulb Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Great fight and great shots Jack! Like you, the more time that I spend in P3Dv4, the more that I like it! I do admire the way that you can fly those complex big jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a lot of work but since it's so-called study-level it makes it more of a challenge to learn all this stuff. This is why at 9:00 PM my nose is buried in my iPad watching YT's and reading manuals. 7 hours ago, stewart1 said: Super set of screen shots jack I liked the ones with the undercarriage good shots well done regards stewart Thanks Stewart, this is why I like Chase Plane, it makes it so easy to set up creative views like this. This way you can get part of the plane you don't see too often and get to see Orbx's stuff at the same time. 6 hours ago, paulb said: Great fight and great shots Jack!

I have a slight leg up Paul as I used to work cockpit avionics in these birds so I know a lot freaky out of the gate. But it's still a lot of work to set up a flight with fuel weights and winds, and SIDS and STAR's and well, you get the picture. 2 hours ago, mikee said: Super Shots Jack , well done !

Stillwater Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Honestly I would not want to be a passenger starting in a 777 piloted by you Jack. I simply like my lunch too much. 14 hours ago, Airwolf said: There was a time just a few months ago, we would all would have faced ooms with these addons in the 32 bit era.

I simply like my lunch too much. Ouch!! I wondered if people would notice, you see this is a study level plane and in my stupid rush I didn't notice until after take off I was climbing too steeply. I had neglected to turn on VNAV like a dummy. After that it was normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTigerM Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Excellent set of very close to photorealistic shots Jack. Very crisp, & shadings & colors look good. If I had that setup I don't think I would be tinkering with it much. The Delta is PMDG?? TTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was a mistake, I was wondering why I was climbing so fast then I realized I neglected to engage VNAV and LNAV! Oops. Fixed it and continued with my flight.

I remember when I was a kid and they showed these on TV, a long long time ago and I was always fascinated to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
