X-Plane screenshots

I was checking out the area where a SAAF Dak crashed recently in real life with the loss of several lives (RIP). They hit the peak in inclement weather :

Following an A.I. aircraft until it flew into a mountain. The A.I. aircraft behave much better in FSX.

This is the airport where I learned to fly in real life in 1982. Flying the Dreamfoil Jetranger.

Thanks! There are of course guys who use programs such as AC3D who make much more realistic models. I use Sketch Up.

I don’t spend much time here, but can I say I love the shipwreck. Brilliantly done, your talent is frightening!

I haven’t been doing too much virtual flying lately because of real flying, but here is a shot of the recently released B737-800 by EADT.

And the base where I am operating from at the moment, with photoreal buildings from pictures I took.

I have only recently unpacked my machine and back in the hot seat (Dreamfoil Bell 407) making more scenery objects.

The last coach is a South African Railway coach and 100% my own work.

It’s much more rewarding when you create your own scenery!

Thanks Vet27, nice shot and informative advice. One, when I can afford a new, faster pc I will invest in X-plane. Got soo bored with the other lot.

Here I am flying an MB 339 (free download) at FYWH. The South African Air Force operated MB 362 “Impalas” in Namibia (yes I was there and did my stint…) and the 339 is the closest model available for X-Plane.

This is the block of flats in which I spent the first 9 years of my life… I modeled it and put it into X-Plane in the exact place…it is still there and this is what it looks like today (in X-Plane)…

There is some tweaking to be done, and X-Plane’s terrain mesh has covered the road, but I’m working on it…
