I wish, I've unfortunately never had the chance to play golf, I wish I could but wouldn't even know where to begin. I used to play Tiger Woods Golf on my Xbox so I know the rules. But now it's a moot point as I can't lift heavy things and I think a golf bag is pretty heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Was that KSAN you departed from Jack? If so, on your travels to Palm Springs, just about everything you flew over was the area I grew up. I was all over the place from Palm Springs to LA to San Diego in my youth, at the beach, in the mountains, out in the desert. That whole area was my playground Nice set of shots on this little journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Top class set Jack, those mountains come up really well. Very impressive over the built up areas too, I had to keep pausing the other day for my old PC to catch up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a lot different now Jack, you're not missing anything. Time has not been nice to the area, I'm afraid. Nevertheless, it still looks pretty good in the sim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean marc Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Really nice tour Jack ...I like particulary the beautiful palm trees on the first shots ... and the mountain relief at the end - in fact close to Josuah Tree NP with is really beautiful (and hot these months also during the night) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsailer2 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Very nice pictures :-) I especially like the airport map on the inst panel 4th picture... how does that get there? Looks like an A2A Cessna. I don't use that plane much, can't get the auto-pilot to work, I just stick with the default fsx Cessna, works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s A2A’s 182 with Flight1’s GTN750, life wouldn’t be the same for me without it. Besides Orbx being #1 this Garmin is #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
