paulb Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Nothing special, just a bit of fun I recently installed the freeware Global AI Ship Traffic by Henrik Nielsen, so I thought that I would take a flight over the English Channel in search of ships. It was only a short flight and I was surprised how easy it was to finds ships. FSX, FEX and ORBX Departure from EGHI Southampton Airport, England.
