COOK ISLANDS

[Ian Warren]

I finally have the PC up and runnin and now able to Holiday . I setup a flight from Fiji or in Fijian(Cueji) in my trusty Lanc off in search of a new land , not really , I wanted to try my hand at old type navigation , direction due east toward the Cook Islands .

There are no water effects added yet , idea to see what effect around the Islands , many hours truddling along , nav was off slighty bout found Aitutaki Island WOW and whoops

This area needed a remake and Thanx to all who voted for the December Screen shot Compietion ( on a wing and a prayer), I have it with Christian's RED BARON ENTERTAINMENT Cook Island scenery .

Now for a change in AC and a compare , we all no the type 340kts 40 deg bank over Aitutaki / Arutanga ... the default , the other


now time for a lttle exploring , Atiu / Enua Manu


All the airports/airfields are very basic but they are there and maintained
Island Mangaia /Auau

only enough room for a runway .. were do the people live in Penrhyn /Tongareva





The entire area is idea for a scenery designer , for the flyer who likes the find the dot in the ocean senerio ,
I wonder what they were thinking (below), this is the Island of MITIARO/NUKUROA ! ?

Leaving the Islands , Rarotonga , largest off them all , cruzy trip back to NZ


look at the size off this Island


I would guess third the size of the Banks Pensuliar or 2 Waiheke Is .

Cool Shots. The cook islands are small I think only 34km around

Neat stuff Ian, thanks for sharing!

The RBE island coastline looks just as good as the job they did enhancing NZ,

Hope you enjoy flying there

Very good shots Ian, especially the air pacific ones at the end

wow looks good Ian, glad to see being streched across the banner paid of for you!

Those are very flat islands arn't they, wouldn't want riseing sea levels if you lived there would you.

Certainly is very detailed coast lines, if they are long enough to be called "coast lines".
