Kilauea

Kilauea Map is an active vulcano the islands. In 1983 one of the eruptions started an you will only see the volcano in eruption in Flight Simulator on that year.

Change the time to a night of year 1983. Takeoff from Hilo Intl airport (PHTO), climb and maintain 5000 ft, and fly heading 204 for 23 nm. Return to PHTO on VOR 116.90.

Actually, I was hoping for something a little larger, able to be seen further away. I posted a shot of that a while back. It's a neat little animation, and it is also in Lynn & Bill Lyons Golden Hawaii.
