Maule-d in Canada...

Could not resist following the recent post regarding freeware scenery. ORBX does it again with a great collection of airports in North America. Particularly, CBB7 in British Columbia. Calling this an "airport" is a leap, more of a "wide spot in the trees". Realism, You Bet!!

You are so right, jp ;)
Some very good shots of a beautifull landscape :clap:
Just wondering, what did you edit in your pictures?

Great shots.

I've been avoiding adding a lot of small scenery locations until I could come up with a simple, useful, plan to keep track of them.

It would be easy to do in FSX, but a little less so in Prepar3d.

This'll be the second add-on scenery in that plan.

Thanks

OK. I downloaded it, but I'm VERY disappointed.

It just isn't as "scenic" as I was expecting it to be. :(


CBB7 in British Columbia with REX Essential Plus weather.

BTW - For anyone else who may be interested - I wasn't sure that this would be as good as it is because I only have the standard FSX North American mesh, and I have none of the Orbx NW regional scenery. But as you can see, it's as good as a flight sim can get.


Thanks again, jphespe, for the pictures. :D

I've never had prayer work in the past. Don't know why it'd start working now. :confusion-shrug:

EXACTLY!

I was looking for a secluded place to practice touch and go with my Lockheed L049.

I'm tired of people laughing at me as I bounce up and down the runway on my landings. :oops:


That arrow points to where I sat until I fell asleep for the rest of the flight across the Atlantic in a 1954 night flight to London.
