Hello @wolfko, I would say yes, because we are about to post real life shots, no competitors stuff. But basically this is a question to the Orbx moderators, e. g. @Iain Emms or @Nick Cooper: Is it accepted to advertise Orbx partner airports by posting real life shots of them here? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 11/24/2022 at 10:13 PM, paulk said: Look forward to your first photo if approved. Hello Wolfgang, I was just thinking: When I started this post in 2019, there was no MSFS or partner companies selling via Orbx. At that time it was obvious to limit all pictures to Orbx-created stuff. But meanwhile there are only very few Orbx-sceneries coming to the market. Which would mean, we may broaden the scope of this post to everything what is sold via Orbx. And as there have been no objections by the experts, I would say: Give it a go, Wolfgang (and all the other enthusiasts)! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfko Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) Thanks for stepping in Graeme. I was a bit lazy looking for the right pic. So, Sunglass Hut indicates, that it is an Australian airport. Emirates Lounge tell us it must be an international one. Now we have the choice.

boetie Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Yep Brisbane International of course. I took that last Sunday when picking up my daughter from her Schoolies (Aussies will know what that is) in Fiji. I’ll be back up there on Wednesday to pick up my wife on her return from the UK. Well done Wolfgang. Cheers Graeme 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Abernathy Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 I've been to the Spokane area many times and flown over it a few times. I was shocked myself after only a short look that it looked like Felts. Opened up Google Earth for confirmation. They have a gondola in downtown that goes over the river too, very nice city. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
