Thanks Paul! I use IS3 too, and I love it. I have been a flight simmer for 10 years + (lots longer if you count all the way back to the hours I spent on Aces Over Europe and Aces Over the Pacific) but only started scenery design since I got my latest FS computer and have something capable of running and storing scenery design without really noticing it. Most of my scenery is stuff like crop duster strips, logging operations, farming ops, etc. Stuff I know in the real world.
I did one militaryesque scenery of the helicopter rescue on Mt Sinjar and published it, but it was kind of hurrried (I wanted people to have it while it was happening real world, and it was a little rough). I have Andreas Myers Airwolf and scenery, and I have built a lot of stuff around Moab, and fly helicopters in and out of the Airwolf's Lair. I have the freeware photoreal scenery for Huntsville, AL (my home base) and every once in a while I pull it out and populate it with correctly placed objects over the photos. Some day I'll finish and release it, but its not even close to finished.
I wasn't really into hang gliders until lately. I usually fly bushplanes, floatplanes, helicopters with slingloads, etc. I had David Rowberry's Bright Star installed for probably years before I flew it past the initial test flight. About a month ago I saw a youtube vid of one and remembered I had it on FSX. A little tweaking so I could get a nice tailwind with the throttle when I wanted and some panel updates later, I haven't flown much else but some other gliders for nearly a month. Anyway, here's a few more shots:




The thermals you see are not part of the HGH scenery, but part of a Moab scenery I have put together, but haven't released.



The airplanes, tents and pickup truck on the left side of the runway are not part of the HGH scenery, but part of the Moab scenery I haven't released.











This last one is not HGH related, really. Its just an example of my object library promiscuity. This is a sailplane shed I turned into a nice little cabin near Moab, where I open the doors and launch out directly.
It has a lot of Land's End Seaplane Objects, and some other stuff too. I got bushels of this crap, I just have the decency to keep it to myself most of the time.
