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.

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.
http://www.trinityhouse.co.uk/interactive/gallery/wolf_rock.htmlWhen I was with 771 Squadron we used to do that run once a fortnight every winter, until the lighthouses went fully automated.
