Jack Sawyer Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 XP 11.35R1 Orbx's TE Washington xVision preset - Nordic Made a relaxing flight from WA56 to 74S in the default Piper Cub The next shot is where I had a "yard sale," my term for a crash. I may never get the knack for tail draggers and no longer care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fltsimguy Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Nice, very nice. Haven't sprung for the "farm" even though its the price of a coffee, as in the P3D version I only a couple times went there. Too many other great places to fly to. You might think that Orbx would just toss that one in for us folks who are buying all the TE Regions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Pettichord Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Okay, Jack, where's the trick? I can't believe you actually flew a yellow Cub for that distance without once going inverted or flying under a bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rodger, no trick, I wanted to unwind and have a slow and enjoyable flight without any antics. Only my lasting was a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernd1151 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 This is my kind of flying, low and slow, so you can soak up the countryside that passes by gently . Excellent pics, my friend; what sort of map do you use in some of your pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulk Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I have to disagree, I never like returning from a holiday It was a great trip especially for my 5 and 11 year old sons. Such a beautiful part of the world. I hope one day JV and Orbx will be able to make a TE BC Canada if the price for the ortho's is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
