Some years ago

Recommended Posts

I started purchasing Orbx products some years ago. One of my first was the PNW Region. Shortly followed by Orcas Island. For FSX from memory.

 

Anyway, I recently bought the Washington TE package for XP11. So I had to fly from and around that airport.

 

KORS Orcas Island Airport and True Earth Washington USA. XP11.55

 

The state of Washington is situated on the North West coast of the USA, adjacent to Canada.

Nice shots of PNW Paul. And of course it was my start with Orbx in FSX as well. :)

I think it was a very successful product for Orbx and I still like to fly there in the original landclass region as well. 

 

Many thanks Andreas. :)  Indeed,the landclass regions won me over to Orbx. All to the detriment of my wallet! :rolleyes:

Ah, several of my favorite flight sim things. The Beaver, KORS and the PNW region. Such flight sim goodness and nostalgia. Great images Paul! :)

Good to see that you are not too old for disco Paul.

I hung my DVDs out in the garden for bird scarers but the only thing that was scared was me when I realised how much I have spent on simming, mostly Orbx, over the years.:o:ph34r::lol:

Great memories indeed and some excellent images of a beautiful part of the world.

I can remember the postman delivering my PNW DVDs and installing them. It was a race against time that  morning as I was working afternoon shift at the cannery there and I wanted to try it out before I left for work. It is still one of my favourite areas to fly:).

Thank you Martyn. Indeed, good memories. :)   Probably a few more Washington flights ahead before I have another go at getting FS2020 right for me. :D
