BradB Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Japan scenery really improved with Global , can you imagine what either a full fat region or Orbx TrueEarth would do for it . Life is good being a Simmer these days . BTW Jack , please more from the country of the Rising Sun because these shots look fabulous . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it’s going to get better and better. And this is the first flight of many in Japan. Still have three flights in the Swiss Alps to post too.

Dadtom65 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Nice looking aircraft Jack and nice shots. With all that’s happening or going to happen I wish I was a few years younger. Boo hoo. Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadtom65 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 VR now that’s another thing. Dam this getting old. I thought I had found out how to put emojis into my posts but it still won’t let me do it, on an iPad anyway. Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTigerM Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Nice set Jack. The flying I have done over Japan has always surprised me how hilly it is in parts. TTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Great shots, Jack. Nevertheless I have to say I still miss the "japanese touch" in this Global Scenery - but I am totally convinced Orbx is in a position to change this later or sooner. Imagine this country with TrueEarth technology...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvdboomen Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Nice Jack. I've been there last October and the hills look on par with reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Jack, a very fine Cessna tour over Japan. You have definitely shown off some great scenery of Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Great stuff Jack, I am looking forwards to your tour of Japan. It would be great to have it done as a full region but I don't know what the demand would be like. Roll on OLC Asia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I come from years as a real avionics tech in real life so these new GPS's are fantastic to me. They would have saved a lot of lives in the past.

I know Eugene, on planes that can’t be fitted with the 750 I like to navigate VOR to VOR like I did years ago. I have the entire world in Jeppessen maps so that helps. But I really do like that GPS unit. Best regards, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
