TigerTigerM Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I took the Caudron from KAVX, around to Avalon. Used all the runway to take off, & had a closer look at the town using the Drone Camera. TTM (MSFS) This shows much of the character of Catalina Island that has been captured so well by Ken & Tim- windswept, with sparse vegetation. (The Island I mean) The nose is obscuring the cruise ship at Avalon. I like the way MSFS does cloud shadowing on the water. A nautical trio. The Boat Club. Stunning tile work. They look like painted ceramic tiles, & they have been aged to reflect the impact of the elements. Top class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Your long nosed plane is getting some hours in and passing some excellent scenery which you are sharing with us. The detail that has been put into the Catalina add on is utterly amazing. Well done and I shall look forwards to seeing some more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renault Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Your plane is quirky, a little bit of "lets be really different because we can" but with your choice of scenery both become so very complimentary. Catalina with the Orbx touch just seems to be that made for that sort of vibe. It is je nais se quois at it's finest Cheers Pete PS - you've given me a journey destination . Gotta go looking for roof tiles now! @Ken Hall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Joe As per the PS - "I do not know" I've always used it as a description (from when I took French in school) for "even though it has some flaws and is not perfect it has an appealing intrinsic quality which is very nice" . But school was so very long ago now, and I live about 2000 KM from Quebec , so there are endless possibilities that I have it wrong It's old age and I'm sticking to my story But in all seriousness, it just seemed to me that the combination of the character of the Caudron and the "feeling" of Catalina that was portrayed by TTM's screenshots made it a perfect fit. I stand corrected if I have used it incorrectly. Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
