Have ya'll seen the Glacier National Park for FSX/FS9, both in super sharp 1.2 m/pix resolution, by Blue Sky Scenery ? - Awesome! And GREAT on FPS! I fly it in FS9... QUOTE Contains spectacular Glacier National Park just south of the Canadian border, up in Montana. Although the mountains formed about 60 million years ago, the rugged landscape as we see it today is largely the effect of glaciers, thousands of feet thick, that grinded and scraped along the valleys during the ice ages, just about 20.000 years ago. Only the tops of the highest peaks were sticking out back then. The...

After seeing both the early and the super preform back to back at a recent airshow , its quite a different aircraft , more aggressive in turns and pikes , the slow fly fast , you could be forgiven to believe your back at the 1987 Christchurch Airshow /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

QUOTE (SUBS17 @ Jan 20 2009, 11:56 AM) Even if you had never asked they could never have stopped you as theres nothing wrong with that especially not back in 1988 no one would have cared. In 88 , was still the period with the DC-10 incident , yes 79 the crash , reports were still only getting made public and many involved were dying due to the stress , but we had very good friends at ANZ and in respect to them QANTAS it was .

As a matter of interest, I've flagged all aircraft in the NZFSIM repaints site that happen to be in the VANZ fleet. Just put "VANZ" in the search field. /New_Zealand_etc.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= >nzflag< border= 0 alt= New_Zealand_etc.gif /> If anyone knows of other VANZ aircraft repaints that aren't on NZFSIM, please let me know!

I believe, it comes from the differences of the two era. A very good example for that would be the flight planning. Back in the 50's, the ONLY relevant thing was time. The flight looked like this : 1/3 part climb, 1/3 part cruise and 1/3 part descent. They had an "average" speed for the flight (usually 0.77 X economy cruise speed as per manual). On the basis of this speed they calculated the ETA for every navigational point (ADF's and VOR's) they pass. If they were late or early more then 15%, they adjusted the power settings to one "level" up or down. These...

QUOTE (cirrusnature @ Jan 3 2009, 07:17 AM) I have ASX and the one thing that ruined it for me are the hard haze layer that appears when at certain transition levels. It is supposed to be fixed in ASA with a texture file but the thought of spending another $50 just to have the file is a bit off putting. I'm sure there are other improvements over ASX that would justify the price but you'll think that they could at least provide the haze fix for ASX users. Other than that it works in a similar fashion as ASv6 although a bit more complex under it's hood as to how it...

If it's built into the 3D model, then I don't think there is any way of just masking it up, however, if you're willing to try a different design, download the one of the Project Opensky 737NG series- it includes with eyebrow and without variants.

Well my lot sold for $47.50, which added to the $15 that I got for selling my old GTA San Andreas game gives me enough money for return flights to Taupo for the A1GP with ANZ staff discount /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />
