Davepdx Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 No great shots here, just flying directly above the area where I live. I thought it would be interesting. All thanks to Microsoft and ORBX, especially the freeware Portland scenery. Just above Dave's humble abode (home to the missus and yours Esquire, PDQ) Glendoveer Golf Course, just a drive and a mid-iron away...Home to many a duffer and bogie, not the greatest course but not bad either. Off in the distance, KPDX, across the river is Vancouver, Washington and KVUO. My dad and I used to plane watch by the hot dog stand on the road between the airport and the river. Many years ago. Back up the Columbia Gorge, KTTD. A fun flight and also a very scenic drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I reckon they are pretty good shots. Very clear. And I congratulate you for putting details of where each shot is taken. Maybe you could have circled your house? Cheers Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael63 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Nice to have a local show you around Portland. I envy you the fantastic nature that you have in your back yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davepdx Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thanks Mike, ORBX did a great job with pasture-like settings for very enjoyable low-level flying. All of the outer fringes of Portland are very well done, including down into the valley towards Salem, Eugene etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
