Just Singin' in the Rain

[Charl]

Late spring and the Auckland weather can do 4 things in a day, as they say.
Sure enough, my Local was marginal in the sim, but did not stop me flying.
Glad I was not actually out there.



Then I thought to have a look elsewhere for better weather.
Initially not too bad, and I contemplated making a quiz question:
Where is this, and what am I flying?



But after landing, the weather set in and a dinkum thunderstorm turned up in the sim



It's almost impossible to take a screenshot of lightning effects, so I ran a video and clipped frames from it.
Kudos to the sim, whenever lightning struck, it lit the plane in different ways and from different directions!

Well done that man.

Thank you Marty, but... would you have gotten the quiz question?

Great weather shots!

Well, I did. That would NZRO Rotorua.

Yes! The Antonov might've proved a bit more challenging from inside I'd have thought.

Great weather shots!

Thanks - it was interesting to capture as it happens too fast in the sim to pin down.
Although you would know if it's "wrong".
