Sometimes the bug to fly just overwhelms common sense.........the flight started out just cloudy and poor visibility, and went to worse when a thunderstorm kicked in........












The plane is Tim "Piglet" Conrad's excellent work plane.gif

Great shots.
With RealNZ even if it doesn't work, the pleasure of owning the box and looking at the screenshots is enough it's so great. thumbup1.gif to Real NZ.
Definitely a major improvement that is worth it if you have the cash and it's not too much cash either, only $79 for the FS2004 collection and $88 for FSX.

Well, I've updated my NZ scenery somewhat, and gotten a SRTM set for the islands. What do y'all think? smile.gif

Auckland:









Wellington and surrounding area (this is a photoreal set, that IMHO although it looks good from up high where I normally fly, looks like cr@p down low):













Christchurch:







Southern Alps:
