Sorry Doug. I probably should have mentioned that it was a ORBX PNW strip.

But you sure do make my paint look good in these shots. :)

I too, would like to see a native FSX Otter in all versions, as well as a Super Otter. The lack of a decent Super Otter is the main reason I bought the Kodiak. But it just doesn't look as good.

Goodly morning Larry... :)

Thanks ever so much for the comments... :)

For realism Payware is the way to go for sure...

Having my Frame Rates set to Twenty-Four (24) and FS Water Configurator OFF I did not see any real drop in the Frame Rates or any Flutter on the Screen to mention.

Think I will keep FS Water Configurator ON and use the Twenty-Four (24) Setting for Frame Rates as I think the water looks much better.

Still experimenting with settings.... ;D       :)

The cross country flight from Friday Harbour to Olympic Field and on to Cushman Lake was not too bad but payware is definitely a must for realism right now... :)

I like being able to turn Bloom On and Off while in the flight with Shift F12, wish there was a way to do that with FS Water Configurator.

Keep finding those wonderful locations as they make the hobby look great and keep me occupied or as the old girl would say: "Out of her hair"... ;D
Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Hi Doug,

Even though it's not OrbX stuff there, the place looks quite nice as it is, I have to say.
Concerning your screenshots, I really like the second to last. The scenery looks good in the foreground, but it looks also good in the background, which is something quite difficult to get, most of the times. Finally, the glowing aircraft makes a cool contrast with the ground, and the lake is a nice little touch too.

And that last shot from the cockpit is quite impressive as well. I love those colors during sunsets with the bloom, it gives a whole new dimension  8-)

I have to agree with Stephane, Doug. That last shot is gorgeous. :)

And we definitely want to keep you out of 'the old girl's hair' and out of the corner of the hangar. ::)
