Today I thought I would go back and fly at one of my old favourite addons- Photoreal Corsica from FranceVFR. I took my Carenado Cherokee out of St Catherines, and pondered around in the mountains for a while until I arrived at Corte. It wasn't a very long flight, and I plan to do some more flying on the island soon, but I have to go out this evening and dont have time for a long simming session.

Hopefully these screenshots will give you a taster for the reason that I like this area:

In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose.

Very nice pictures :D

In case you didn't know, there is an autogen addon pack for the VFR Corse scenery, €12.85 ex VAT from Simmarket. All the airport charts are also available for download from the French SIA website: http://www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/ ... aip_uk.htm (in English, even!). And in case you don't have one, here is a slightly crude map:

(btw, remember this is France: They do get upset if you fly through their restricted zones... ;) )

Good scenery and a good aircraft (do the carenado aircraft come with custom soundsets?)

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.
