antonvs Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I have just setup BOB as well as getting the YMML V1.5 update and thought I would combine both to have a better look around Melbourne Airport. Thanks again to John and the team BOB is a great asset and addition to the FSX/FTX experiance. Below is an album of the day's outing.

jacobmulder Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi Antonvs. What do yoy mean by having set up BOB, also have you got the problem of no approach runways shown in the GPS when aproaching an Airport in Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonvs Posted April 1, 2010 Author Share Posted April 1, 2010 What do yoy mean by having set up BOBJacob, BOB thinks he is airplane disguised at a human, or maybe a human disguised as an airplane. and can be found at http://fullterrain.com/freeware.html Using basic joystick controls you can walk him around and explore anywhere in the FSX world (at ground level). And as you can see by my walk around Melbourne a/p, you can see every nook and cranny. He adds a totally new experiance. ....also have you got the problem of no approach runways shown in the GPS when aproaching an Airport in Australia Don't have any problem with GPS approaches, only sometimes the alignment can be off cheers....
