The birds......the birds.....

Spotted this ship this morning in the St Juliana bay moored quite close to shore.



Quite surprised as I hadn't seen it there before so I went to investigate in the Robinson. Lovely model and textures eh? When I got close I saw the brds flying over it



Dunno whether anyone else has seen em - if so, sorry - but it's a first for me. And very effective they were too even if they were textureless and all black!

But I haven't seen any animals - has anyone?

Can you crash into them...with blood going everywhere and you're engine stopping?

Yes, but if you do it intentionally, in the UK the virtual RSPCA contacts the CAA and your sim flying licence is revoked.

It's just not worth it - plus you have the job of cleaning the blood and guts off your aircraft before you can shut down your PC for the night.....

Do we have to contain them in cases of bird flu?

Also anyone remember Birds by Stephen king?

They're also around the approach for TNCM.

[RollerBall]

James, are they above a boat of some kind? So far that's the only place I've seen em

[flyboy 28]

Actually, no. I'll go take a shot real quick. Give me about 20 min for my FSX to boot up though.

I can see an Add on developer having to write a "bird scarer" routine to be used at airports to prevent ingestion on take off and landing!!!!  8)

They're black because they're crows.

No because it was by Alfred Hitchcock....

nice birds.

does this make bird strikes a possibility. stupid question i know (obviously no) but would be an interesting feature to the realism.

Like 'em RollerBall! Can't wait to see some whales (As said in the gamespot video), elephants, giraffes and all other animals.

I wonder if they have Clippers dog in there somewhere

Ah cool! Then I guess they'd make the subtitle "a millennium of flight"

And it would be cool to do some formation flying with a coule of Pteradactylons
