The scenery is free from Earth Simulations, can't remember the name of the lighthouse though.
It is located about 5 miles South of the most SW point of England. It is between mainland England and the Isles of Scilly.

[color=#000000]It may be small scenery area wise, but it is very cool. No room for error though.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

When I took this pic it was my first try nailing that landing, so I had nice weather and no wind. Tomorrow I will give it a shot with storm settings, lots of winds, turbulence and low visibility. I fully expect to crash on my first ten tries...

Fozzer, Eddystone is off Plymouth, the 2 lighthouses of the Scilly Isles are this one Wolf Rock and Longships.

When I was with 771 Squadron we used to do that run once a fortnight every winter, until the lighthouses went fully automated.
