Stillwater Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Today we go for another major tourist route along the east coast of Tasmania. From Friendly Beaches, where we stopped yesterday, ... ... heading north, where the small access road meets the A3. A look over the shoulder shows us Great Swanport and the Freycinet coast to the left. Bicheno. A good place for Fish & Chips, Coffee and Sunrise watching. Work for the driver to cross Elephant Pass. Easier for the pilot... St. Helens, beautifully located at a bay. For me this would be a good location for an Orbx airport as well. And if need be, one could include Binnalong Bay... ... and the Bay of Fires. A long and winding road leads us via Scottsdale... ... towards Launceston. Runway 32 to our right, sorry I can´t give you evidence of the landing today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fine, busy raising birds, coping with the virus restrictions, and has been busy with other real world stuff. I asked him to post here and he said he would when he gets a chance.

TerribleT Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I see you have caught the Tasmania virus Gerold which many of us have suffered from in the past - beware it is very strong and never really goes away lovely captures by the way and your sim is so perfectly set up for screenies!

I like to read that idea, but I am not totally convinced of potential "sims to come". Let´s wait and see. Or, better: Let´s fly (with what we have) and see (what comes someday)! 2 hours ago, bvdboomen said: That first one reminds me of a visit to Batchelor airstrip south of Darwin although not red.
