Never run out of ideas.......

Postby CHUCK79 » Sat Jan 01, 2011 3:53 pm

Happy New Year everyone :D
The SimV forums are a great place to go for ideas and inspiration.
Flight sims have so many possibilities. If it weren't for this place and the people here, I may have become bored or frustrated with FSX by now because I would have no idea how many various sceneries and different types of aircraft are out there and, without help from the forums here, I would probably still be trying to install my first add-on ::)

[color=#000000]Great shots Chuck. :)
Actually, you inspired yourself, 'cause I would not have known about the updated Pensacola NAS, Whiting Field, and Spencer NOLF if you had not told me.

Great shots! You should try to make some more amazing shots with some old beautiful birds like the Dc-10 or MD-11.

keep the awesome shots coming :)

Thanks Larry and Ben :)
You got me on a technicality Larry but, even though I knew about the scenery, I had forgotten about it and, if not for your "Visiting the Solomons" post, it may have moth-balled in my add-on folder forever.
That's my point......inspiration ;)

The more I look at these shots, the better I like them Chuck. The second one especially, the clouds look almost 3D. :)

I agree, all are great but the 2nd just seems to jump out at you.  Usually when I run out of ideas for a flight I just go to Flight Aware and pick a random airport and look for a recent, or soon to be, scheduled departure for a plane I like to fly and fly the same route then compare times and details of arrival.

Thanks again Larry :)

Ben, yes it is FSX ;)

Tryflyman, thanks. I've never used Flight Aware or anything like it but, it sounds like a good way to keep things interesting 8-)
