Jack Sawyer Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 These are for @F737NG Hi, I only had the time to leave EGNM and head southeast. I hope I went far enough, please tell me if this is correct. I will go to the others when I have more time. I changed the time of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vfr_steve Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Firstly really lovely shots, but the colours are crazy vivid here and very unrealistic to how the UK looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look nice on my monitor but even OND said they're too bright so I must see what I can do. He recommended the Nordic preset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F737MAX Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Nice pics @Jack Sawyer and thanks for hunting for some POIs for me. Leeds city centre looks good to this Southerner. Sheffield is a good 35 miles south of Leeds, so your flight ended-up a bit short (and because of some bad directions I gave you) slightly in the wrong direction! That being said, it's great to see that in pics #12 and #13 a POI such as an indoor ski slope (Xscape Yorkshire) away from the big cities being modelled. Had not expected that to appear. Thanks again and I hope you enjoyed the random flying about? I thought you were going to land your yellow Cub in that yellow field of Rapeseed!

I have your map and post printed out so I can go to the next airport and if you'll tell me what airport and heading I'll gladly do it. It's interesting to me too.

It's interesting to me too. If you have it in XP, head towards the old airfield of EGSY (closed) which was about 3 miles E.N.E. of Sheffield. Failing that, try flying towards EGCA Coal Aston airfield which is about 5 - 6 miles S.S.E. of the city or as a last resort EGNF Netherthorpe airfield located 12 - 13 miles S.E. of the city. Enjoy!

I know that when I change cloud textures in REX that the atmospheric and the terrain properties change as well, but that's what it's designed to do.

wain71 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 insurance claim......back in the 80's we had Cruise missiles here, we used to go on decoy exercises, the farmers could always put in a claim for damaged fields, they used to give us some crates of beer to chase CND protesters across a field, then in went the claim I guess.....

Gosh do I remember those CND guys. I remember an F-111 mistakenly dropped his fuel tanks and killed some sheep. The Air Force had to reimburse the poor guy.

olderndirt Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Even in the UK, where distances are less, flying cross country in a 65 hp J3 is very ambitious. As close as you are to the ground, in some shots, your autogen and POI's don't blend because of the photoreal flatness of the rest. 3000 and above seems to overcome this but, of course, your POI's are harder to see.

I thought it was fun flying so slow in the Cub. Ok, so I’ll now fly at a mandatory 3000 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is mandatory 'cept death, taxes and stand for the National Anthem - photoreal has always looked better from altitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 These would have to be the most unrealistic images I have seen from Yorkshire Jack! For a start there are no natives running around in animal skins with their spears. Where is the rain, sunny blue skies ooop north, never! Always overcast and dreary. Power lines? I didn't think they had electricity north of Watford. OK. A great set Jack of a wonderful part of the planet. Many happy memories of visits to the North of England where I met a lot of friendly people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
