Himalaya Gliding

Postby Frequent Flyer » Sun Jan 10, 2010 1:30 pm

I've installed CumulusX before, but I've never figured out what it does so I un-installed it.
I've now re-installed it, and seems to me like it made gliding much easier.

I've also added a freeware Lukla scenery to my sim - lovely :) [smiley=thumbup.gif]

Leaving Lukla. The towplane didn't like the mountainous terrain, it looked as it was drunk

They are VERY HARD to spot.
Most of the time, you see them as a couple of pixels :/
