Cool  :D

I was a bit stuck but then I saw the Maule, the flag and the mountains in the first one so I decided to go by the plane:

4 European countries

1. Switzerland
2. USA
3. I'm stumped here - ANG is short for ANGRY maybe, so let's guess a passionate, vibrant, emotional nation....... Belgium.
4. Leaves on a plane? Now that's obviously Canada.

Well there you go, pretty much a giveaway really once you know the logic behind it. I suppose I don't even need to ask if I won, right?

Cheers

Nooo....!! I don't believe it - I only got one right??  :o
Look, if the USA and Canada aren't in Europe then where are they??

I knew as a Brit there was something familiar about the second one, but with the American flag on the plane I thought it must be Disneyland or something.

As for shamrocks, what's that? Glam rock I know, Sham 69 I've heard of...could it be related? Can you eat shamrock syrup? Lost me there mate....

Your UTX is looking very nice by the way.....

Cheers

Damn, missed the third one, coulda sworn it was Simferopol, on the Crimean peninsula in the Ukraine. The main airport there looks exactly like the one in your third shot. Here's a picture from Google Earth of the airport I thought it was, thank you LockOn for the location:

I tried to get the same angle.

Cool! I obviously like the first ... there are mountains in them. Makes me think of Alaska :P
We don't have any mountains in the Netherlands. There are only minor hills in the south, which are hardly over 300 meters.

Maybe you can visit my country once Bob. If you get the Christmas 2007 update you can see the worlds biggest Christmas Tree ;)

Hi Harold
I actually was going to see what it looked like where you live in the Netherlands where you live, but I can't find the email you sent with the pictures showing the town and it's location. I know I saved it. It's hiding in my saved email somewhere. Would you email me the name of the town and it's coordinates. I'll take a few screen-shots to show you how it looks with the new UTX scenery and email them to you.

:)  Bob

We will never know if I don't give it a look-see.

True ... but try the NL2000 files. It's big (20+GB) but very worth it!
