Was flying today with some Real World Weather trying out an A-10 I had downloaded. Was on my way back from KGRR to KAMN with rain all the way when the weather took a turn for the worse. Winds 214 09KTS and about 3/4 of a mile visibility ceiling 100ft. With lightening and thunder crashing around me I decended below the storm. Man Im glad I installed those glideslopes I thought as I was on aproach to KAMN (EA Base under costruction). Here are the resulting shots.
The glideslope is an effect Im currently working on isnt quite functioning the way I want yet. Trying to make it so it is only visible from the cockpit and VC. Greg

Looks like a useful effect for learning how to catch a glideslope Greg. That A-10 could do with a better paintjob though ;)

No doubt. The A-10 there is intended to be for AI I just through some gauges in it for fun. 8-)
The glideslope is great for heavy weather when not even the AI can land. LOL. They just circle and circle.

Edit- whats the deal with the Badgers?

It would definetly be intense. Even with all the gear they use for landing. :o
