Randomness
Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2007 10:23 pmJust some randoms from today, featuring my current personal transport the Atlas Impala.
Getting ready to go to Chicago
Departing for Chicago
"I'm blue da boo de da boo dy da boo dee da boo dy..." (anyone remember that song?)
No shots from Chicago, it was dark and I couldnt see any good shot opportunities
And finally, an attempt at uniqueness. I was flying around Portland and landed at Pearson's Field (really fun approach, basically entered downwind then made a 180 degree turn and lined up over the highway, really perfect landing too). I taxiied around because it was shockingly my first time at the airport, and I went to see whatever these remote hangers were. I noticed this static display area, from the sattelite CLEARLY a DC-3 in real life, but empty in the sim. I put my impala where the dak would be, and started looking for a good angle, when all of a sudden I spotted an Air Canada Jazz DHC-8 climbing away overhead from KPDX. So with AC in walk around mode I got this angle and waited for the next departure, which happened to be this Delta (no clue what model, possibly a 757). This is an IDEA, not intended to be a good screenshot due to the problems with AC (some stuff gets kinda screwy in walk around mode). Also from the distance the AI looks blergh.
Enough talk, here's the shot:
