Jack Sawyer Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 XP11 Orbx's TE Florida Now XP is really starting to get good for me. The combination of TrueEarth, ASXP for weather, and this plane, the 727 I bought is amazing. Couple that with xCamera and I'm almost there. All I need now is a universal traffic program that has both small planes and big jets and I'll be set. This flight has over 40 shots but I'll post them four or five at a time. It was one of the best flights I've done in a while. Why? Because I flew old school style, with my real Jeppesen maps and VOR to VOR. Departing KJAX, Jacksonville.

Stratocruiser Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Nice shots, Jack. I am waiting for Florida for P3D. I just moved from Naples to NJ after living in SW FL for 30 years and traveled extensively for work there, so I am looking forward to see how it looks. By the way, what controller are you using for the throttles for the 727? Something with 3 levers? Thanks Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 A wonderful start to your flight Jack. The scenery in Florida that I have seen so far, although flat, is incredible. Next you will have to fly from North Washington to the southern part of North California, unless you wait for the Southern California release! Our XP world is getting bigger.

adambar Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Beautiful shots Jack! My days with XP are over, I went to run P3D and all my scenery was gone, so as of right now I removed XP and I'm in the middle of installing all my P3D scenery.

adambar Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Don't know what happened Jack, it was a shock to me. With my new computer TE runs great on P3D, so I'll wait until Florida until is available. Besides I miss all my planes and programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olderndirt Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I know you have a soft spot for the three holer and glad to see you jumping in the deep end XP wise. Though I lived in Florida for three years, it's strictly a winter state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
