USAF C-130A Starting an approach for zqn while exiting the Rees valley in late afternoon winter sun and low mountain cloud.......phew, what a mouthful.
Gear may be down a bit early....but i love herc feet, so i let them dangle.

FSX, VLC, REX, CaptainSim.

Winter's come early at NZQN! I wonder whether that C-130 used "the Sarajevo approach"!

It's what happens when you clean your herc!

Polishing a Herc can hurt , American Airlines had a problem with to much polishing , as abrasive aluminium is , on aircraft hull its very thin , so don't buff it to much

I'm always intrigued as to how differently we see things. Genuine question here - what didn't you like about it? Your shots are always incredible - so your opinion would be valued. I don't think Marty/Splitpin will take it negatively - his screenshots a re always incredible as well ... just what one "artist" can say to another "artist".

Our NZ snow looks like that in Real Life ... honest!!!
