renault Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Just "snaps", but just the same it is amazing to me, what the Orbx magicians put into their scenery. We miss a lot by flying over it Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be that way, and then I discovered the ground Happens a lot when I am out for my daily walks. We live in the inner city, and I can't believe how noisy all the birds are now. I'm going to miss this in the future. It seems I have connected with something that was missing from my life from a long time ago. See you & I appreciate the comment Pete 19 hours ago, Jack Sawyer said: Love detailed ground shots like this, very nice Pete. Thanks Jack . I do too So are you going to show us pictures soon of your woodworking skills and your "turnings" ? That would be so cool 19 hours ago, Aussieflyer38 said: Great shots Pete, love 'em. Don Thanks Don.

Thanks Pete for this unusual view Hi JM I believe that is a scaled "mockup" of an aircraft fuselage for the fire fighters to train on. Apparently from what I've read, the instructors light it in various ways and then they teach different methods , with different techniques and firefighting chemicals to give the crews real experiences. It does look a bit worn, but its a pretty important part of their ongoing training Thanks for commenting.
