Look Micheal, you are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine lets leave it at that. But honestly did you see Peters DC-8-71 and DC-8-71F?

Look, you asked why and  he explained. And now you said that we each have our own opinion...what???

Hi SerriaTango, I have the DC 8 and thinks its fine, compared to the B747 Classic its more than that offering in terms of panel and model. I bought the original when it was made by Michael Wilson (I also have the 707 series as well and these are great also). We need to define "crappy".....in my terms its a plane that has been dragged u-p from XP8 and "made" to work in XP10....these are crappy.

 

Also, when are developers going to add AO maps to their cockpits???? It doesnt need to be over the top, just a hint so that the new lighting effects in XP10 can be "better", by this I mean there still needs to be "darks" put in the shdow areas (Im an artist so I see in light and dark when painting.....), to enhance the overall visual appreance.

 

Just my NZ$0.02 worth :)

 

Slainte.

Back to the topic...

 

Brought out my AS350 for a nice flight over EDLK. Scenery is amazing, freeware by ksgy. You can grab Egelsberg Feild here: http://x-plane.hu/edlk/

 

Rolling her out of the hanger, onto the grassy strip (underlays are BEAUTIFUL). Click the images for full size!

Took off and made a nice loop around the feild. Farmland and forests as far as the eye can see.

...Flare!

 

Overall I would rate this small airfeild 5/5. Amazing underlays and neat objects. Will definitely make more stops at Egelsberg!

Looks like you could benefit from a sweet little plugin called Clear Skies. It gets rid of the "fog" momentarily or always.  At least it would make your screenshots more interesting rather than looking like you've exceeded minimums.

Since I have learned to use (more or less LOL) the ILS system I enjoy landing in bad weather (like 1/2 mile vis).
