Stillwater Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Getting out of St. Helens at Tasmanias east coast. This needs to become a low & slow flight, and the choice of plane was clear. Turning south along the beaches. This is how the beaches and St. Helens Island look from the ground. Hendersons Lagoon and the way down to Mt. Elephant pass. Bicheno, a good place to stop if you come along by car... ... but we went on to Cape Tourville Lighthouse ... ... and Wineglass Bay. Breathtaking "fresh" water, and a breathtaking view. Turned back inland over Moulting Lagoon... ... and into final towards Friendly Beaches International, Rwy 8C. The runway signs are quite individual here... ... and the main terminal is well done in OZx! PS: If you like the routing...: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakashi Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Nothing like a real world/sim world comparison to make one want to live in the best of both! Looks like you live in both very nicely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I have to agree with everyone above Gerold, love the way you integrated real world shots into your screen captures from your simmed flight. What a great set and narration! More please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Hall Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Awesome, those comparison shots are brilliant, makes me want to revisit all my OZx strips and update them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Wow, that was great Gerold, when I saw the first real photoI thought it was Orbx for a minute. Another superb nice mix of real and Orbx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I love these comparisons, they add both to the pleasure of travelling and to the pleasure of simming. 15 hours ago, Wakashi said: Nothing like a real world/sim world comparison to make one want to live in the best of both!

There is even a third level: The pleasure of posting, which adds to the fun of the other two worlds! 13 hours ago, Sniper31 said: I have to agree with everyone above Gerold, love the way you integrated real world shots into your screen captures from your simmed flight.

But I can´t promise it´ll all be from Tasmania... 13 hours ago, Ken Hall said: Awesome, those comparison shots are brilliant, makes me want to revisit all my OZx strips and update them Thanks Ken, both for watching and commenting. I love to read your words - and even if your time (or the right to use libraries) for freeware is to limited, there would be some demand for commercial work... 12 hours ago, Jack Sawyer said: Wow, that was great Gerold, when I saw the first real photoI thought it was Orbx for a minute. Another superb nice mix of real and Orbx. Thank you Jack. You mean the NatureFlow in #3? It is all Orbx, just with the sliders maxed until they hit my neighbors house. Unfortunately my sim turns into a slideshow then, so I can´t use that mode for flying ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
