Stillwater Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I was taking off from Punta Arenas with the Atlantic Ocean in sight... The southern tierra del fuego. Not too exciting in this view... The city of Puerto Natales, which opens up to the Pacific. And here we enter the Andes at their finest: Grey Lake just under the 208, with the Glaciar Grey behind. Mt. Fitz Roy in the middle, the Torres del Paine to the right. Here we would expect the 3 Torres... ... and this is how they should look ideally... https://www.gochile.cl/en/torres-del-paine-national-park/ Lago Argentino, slightly north... ... and the approach to El Calafate airport. Also not too spectacular, but suited to change to a faster plane... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Wonderful scenery in your flight Gerold. Some spectacular scenery both in FSim and RL. FTX Grass would be beneficial here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a bit unsatisfied, as I could not fine some south american liveries, so I had to make this safari with the NZL version. It is a paint done by @jankees in 2011: http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/files/file/1647-carenado-c208b-grand-caravan-zk-sri-air-safaris/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted April 7, 2018 Author Share Posted April 7, 2018 Regarding the missing peaks of the Torres del Paine: I have contacted Frank Dainese, and he had to tell me that the servers with the 2014 freeware are down, so it is not officially available any more. What a pity to lose this work. I would certainly vote for a little payware project here in conjunction with openLC_SA, take the remainders of the old freeware El Calafate airport together with the Torres del Paine N. P., add a little Nature & CreatureFlow and throw it on the market here... ok, I am biased... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I should take a look and find out how they look with FS Global Ultimate NG... I have El Calafate from Flight Sim Argentina, is that the one you use? It's a bit blurry, but I don't go there that often, so it's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I have just OpenLC / FTX Global running here. El Calafate was also included in Franks work, but seems to be lost for now. Unless someone has it on HDD and can return it to Frank...
