Nice, what is that? Mordor? Pit of Doom? Dante's Inferno?



for Those who don't know:

Mordor - land of the baddies going by the Lord of the Rings cycle.

Pit of Doom - land of the baddies going by the Wheel of Time cycle.

Dante's Inferno - The medieval Italian guy who smoked a little too much weed (he was the first, it's historically confirmed) and then wrote about having been in hell, purgatory and heaven.




Mine is a simple curiosity, where were you?

At Congo's Canyons / goto Telefomin in Papua New guinea.

You'll need my canyons though to see the non default terrain, there are natural canyons there in the sim by default.

I like the bird's angle but I think the canyon wall's aren't realistic enough ::)

Great shot Congo! You might consider also posting this one in Studio V's 'Abstract Workshop' ...

You mean there are really such kind of canyons, even if as an add-on?  :o

Canyons that resemble a graphical glitch... I have to fly them,  absolutely. Thanks for the link.

Who knows... I cold be able to see Frodo... or maybe Rand Al'Thor... or even Dante... or the three of them that happily smoke weed. Note to self; go with a chopper, so I can join them. ;D

It's got absolutely nothing to do with reality, worth a look though if you never flew anything like this.

It works best with a fast jet, collisions and gforces and stress damage off, with virtual cockpit zoomed way out, gives an incredible feeling of speed.
