Perhaps the most surreal moment I have ever had with a flight sim .....

Sometimes there are things that "just happen" without any rational explanation at all
Started out from Mackay, Queensland for a flight over to Mt.Cook, NZ

Stopped for fuel and & snack at Mt. Cook a/p and we're off again

As they say, everything is just "tickety boo" & we're just humming along

Couldn't ask for anything better.  Recently upgraded to Win 11 without issues, MS2020 really hums along.
Happy with my visual fidelity ...life is good

I started thinking if the sim actually had an opinion, what would it think ?

Looking down , I was shocked to see my answer .... looks like she is happy with it all !

What a great looking set of images Pete, and I see the face too. Not sure if it's supposed to resemble someone specific or not, but I see a face. But, more important, your scenery is looking grand indeed :)

After a second look I got it.:)

How incredible.

It was already a top class set of views and I like that Goose too.

Hi Martyn

First of all , it is great to see you commenting again

You were missed :)

Thank you, I am pleased you enjoyed them

The Goose is a great aircraft.  It is simple & very hands on, and the sound package that it comes with

just has to be heard to be believed.

All the best 

Pete

Thanks Landon

I was pleased with it as well

No, not anyone specific. I just found it interesting that a bit of snow cover could result in something like that

I paused the sim and played with the snow cover to see if I could enhance it, but just a small adjustment and  it was gone - never to return

Excellent set of shots! It’s an apparition in the last shot! Common enough in Ireland!

John.

Thanks John

I have enjoyed a pint of two of Guinness in my time, and I once had a similar experience.

Swore off the stuff & now just stick to a good malt.:lol::lol:

Cheers

great shots Pete, though I see no aliens...

What can I say guys...  

On the other hand, it might be a very good thing that you didn't when some of us did !!

Cheers

Really great shots, Pete. It took me only 4 looks to recognize what you meant, I was looking for something in red.

Honestly, Mackay would not come into my mind for planning a flight to Mt. Cook...

Thanks Gerold

Ah, the "in" famous young lady .  She is still about , but I found at Skiathos, she is everywhere in blue!

Mackay was the closest "Orbx" airport I have , so that was where I left from.

Took a while to get to Mt. Cook though ...:rolleyes:

Cheers
