renault Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Take a helicopter ride to a glacier Cheers Pete MS2020 Enhanced NZ Mesh You know how it is. The ticket says "early" but there's always someone whose late, so we wait Finally, off we go Glaciers are not fast , but they sure do a good job of grinding things down Brenda, our pilot says she never tires of flying up here. I can certainly see why Hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the vision of pure white pristine snow covered glaciers is a bit of an illusion In my experience , this is much more the norm .... So we're lucky today. A chance for a walkabout. Everyone out.... Careful don't slip .... It's a lot harder than it looks if you fall. You really do feel like you're on the top of the world here That was great fun .... but time to go And from Brenda and the rest of our little gang. Thanks for coming along. If you're like me, maybe your secret wish to come here in real life one day will happen Hope you enjoyed it Cheers Technical comment: I really like this new mesh . The detail is amazing , even though it is first generation , it is so enjoyable Thanks Orbx!! . Now that I've used it once, I don't want to fly without it And artifacts --- Nada, Het , not a problem .... didn't notice any at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you first use it , it is very subtle , but it very rapidly grows on you and you realize that it makes a very big difference in how the scenery looks. I hope the concept really takes off I'm pleased you enjoyed it! See you Pete On 5/19/2021 at 7:11 PM, craigeaglefire said: captivating shots & commentary, Pete NZ mesh now on shopping list...

Wish they would do the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. Thanks John You and me both But the mountains (different ranges and names ) go from all the way from South America up to Alaska. Let's think big my friend! The possibility to spend our lifetime just Mountain flying in many different countries awaits! Now we just need to get Orbx on board with our clever "plan" It will simply be a bit of awesome!!!!!!!! Cheers Pete On 5/20/2021 at 7:40 AM, mikee said: Impressive shots Pete Thanks Mike!
