Jack Sawyer Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 P3D 3.4 - Orbx Global, N/A LC, Vector, Trees, PNW, AS16 First I went to either Israel's farm or Walter Sutton to look around. I wanted to make a flight between the two. But VAS got in the way. I took off and headed north and the VAS meter was climbing higher and higher. So before it could OOM I made a hasty landing at KPAE, Snohomish and at least I was pleased to see a USAF BUFF. On jacks in the hangar I love this nice little field Decided to look around, should have used an upside down ceiling fan I love the Orbx detail here! Mount Hood, I think Seattle, need to land soon.

Orbx will release it in due time so I just have to have patience. 2 hours ago, Stillwater said: Now that is a way of navigation even professional pilots can´t do better.

This is why I love Orbx stuff and all the kind folks here. 2 minutes ago, BradB said: At least you had some nice chimes playing in the background on this fabulous trip you took today . Cheers John Thanks John but I didn't. I use the now, no longer able to download, free Matt Davies VAS monitor. It gives you a bar in a window that floats on your screen and it will have a number like 86% used, then it'll go from green to yellow and then red. And instead of the chimes you get a woman's voice saying "Danger, low VAS" or something like that. When I saw it way up in the yellow and the number climbing higher and I still had 150 miles to go, I knew I had to land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Excellent set Jack and a great way to see the airport scenery by running around in the PA-24. Better way to warm your engine up than just sitting stationary waiting for the needle to rise. The clarity of your scenery once airborne is spot on. 7 hours ago, BradB said: At least you had some nice chimes playing in the background on this fabulous trip you took today .

Now let me know if it is - more negative to lose the woman´s voice when flying p3dv4 or if it is - an advantage not having your wife knocking at the door to find out which lady you have over visiting?
