Just goofing off over SF Bay. FSX. F-100 by Classic Warbirds Design Team, available at Sim-Outhouse. Alcatraz freeware by Aerosoft. Bridges are by Mike Mahat, originally for FS9. Yes, I did put it into the water at 300 KTS a couple of times!

Lovely screen shots!

I am fascinated by the second screen shot of Golden Gate Bridge, which appears to show the Twin Tunnels on Highway 101 leading into Marin County!
(After twisting my head around 90 degrees!).... :lol: ....!

I have long searched for such a scenery download showing those tunnels! (FS 2004 and FSX).

Paul....SF Bay Regular!... :D ...!

I'm with you! Sorry to say that those tunnels are not freeware. I was looking for something that would get NorCal a little closer to what I'm used to looking at. I didn't want photoscenery, though I was pretty happy with Gottfried Raisek's freeware photoscenery in FS9. I sprang for the Ultimate Terrain package. The tunnels are in there. Funny things is, I'd given up looking for them in any scenery, and didn't notice them until I did that screenshot! Good eye! Sill had to use the Bay Area Bridges scenery from FS9, though. They are superbly done, and even the payware stuff fails to capture those bridges so beautifully. Thanks for noticing.
