[color=#000000]Lake Iliamna, Alaska's largest lake and the eighth largest in the U.S., is located 100 miles west of Seldovia. It is 77 miles long, 22 miles wide, and 988 feet deep. For years, there have been reports of people missing and possibly devoured by a seldom seen and unidentified Monster.
According to Discovery Channel's 'River Monsters', the monster is a

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Nice shots Patchz, interesting water color too.
And yes, MoCat's sceneries are cool although the buildings are almost all the same throughout the various airports. But they are very well done, so that makes those airports very interesting !
The only problem is the performance hit. There's a problem with the buildings textures that cause the texture to reload (with 1 second lag) everytime the building stays out of my screen for more that 5 seconds. A bit annoying...

Yes, and that is both good and bad. It can get a little boring at times, but it also makes it very easy to recognize from a distance.
I don't have a performance hit, it seems to run fine. And I have not noticed the problem with the buildings, but I will watch for it.

Don't know how it is now, but they used to fly two CV580 trips a day into ILI - full of tourist fishermen.
