Mr.Mugel Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Well, as I said in my last post, it was time to switch to P3D V4 from my old FSX install. This is my first test flight with the A2A Harvard, REX Texture direct and Orbx GES scenery. It ran totally smooth after some optimising, looks awesome (still need to fiddle with lighting and contrast) and had no OOM. Preparing the old crate at EDKA, plan is to head into the Eifel region, find the Nürburgring and than head on to Koblenz to land at Koblenz Winningen airport. Leaving Merzbrück. Good old town of Aachen again. Begins to look like the Eifel region. Weather is fine, engine runs, heading about 110° towards Mendig Air Base, Nürburgring should be on the way there. And it is, here we see the Caracciola Karussel, a crazy corner where the ideal line on the inner part has some sinus like banking. I´ve walked there from another famous place, Brünnchen, a couple of times. Nice walk during a VLN endurance race. After a lap around the 'ring, I headed out, Mendig is in sight ahead. Close to Koblenz, looking back over the Eifel. The place called "Deutsches Eck", where the Mosel river meets the Rhine. Following the Mosel for a bit, this half island comes up, where a friend has a camping spot and a small boat, had lots of fun when staying there. And to prove that my sanity has limits, here is some fun over EDRK. Finally it was time to approach Winningen airfield. And back on earth. Oil bucket attached, now it´s time to lubricate the pilot. The white wines from the Mosel area are quite tasty I really liked P3D so far, looks like my machine is capable of handling it fair enough. Will continue the journey in this machine, as it´s one of the few planes I have with some system depth that are V4 ready. Next trips should lead southward to finally check out how my rig handles Munich, and if that is fine, it might be time to add Innsbruck to my collection.

Vora Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Hailing from Memmingen I got a little confused about this Eifel tour. Spotting my Allgäu hometown from above the Nürburgring would be a feat indeed. I guess you meant Winningen in pics 5 and 7. Great pics, have fun in P3D.

You caught me, sorry, confused Mendig Air Base with Memmingen somehow. I´ll get to Memmingen maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
