Cleared to land

Postby Daube » Fri May 23, 2008 12:55 pm

Hi all,

Visual approach to Sion for runway 7, left downwind. Aircraft is the famous freeware Jet Provost.

During approach, looking more at the scenery than the airport itself :P

That is a very cool bird! I recently took her up for a short flight and liked her a lot.
Excellent shots too Daube! Your HDR package is looking good 8-)

Keep 'em coming! I'd like to see some more 'blooming' shots ;)

I see that you are taking advantage of the bloom addon! Great shots!

Great bloom and lighting.


Where do you get the bloom addon anyways?

Thank you all for the kind comments :)

A1, this bloom effect is not the in-game FSX bloom, it's an alternative bloom "module", exactely like FSIUPC, sort of. It works with FS9 as well. You will find all the information in the topic I have created in the FS9 section here:

Actually, I have to admit I CANNOT fly without it anymore. Really, this mod has become completely mandatory for me.

It's FSX, but that plane is a FS9 one.
And if you read the link I provided to A1 just above, you'll be able to get a similar rendering in FS9 as well.

I love how in the second shot, it looks as if the pilot (co-pilot?) is looking right in the direction of the "camera". Really cool looking shots there!
