Just found this on Wikipedia about them: (...) the previous year. In this time, more than 3,000 flights were cancelled (...) I'd LOVE to see ANY airline top that cancellation count. That is hilarious.

That's an HDR image... sorry, but my obsession with photography has recently lead me to become obsessed with composing these things and it's not simple. Not only is that an amazing plane but it's a very difficult and unique style of photo. There is practically no post processing involved beyond stitching.

I love my way so much more - I now count 480 manually placed taxi lights... xD photoscenery rocks and sucks at the same time.

Second that.

That would be a paine in the arse. I know that even the HD mesh for Hawaii right now makes parts of the coastline sink below sea level, I sure hope they recut it.

O.O

Who would like to see a "lite" version (just an apt.dat) released with perfectly accurate layout but no objects or imagery to slow your computer down, for those of you with computers like mine?

I'd get started on CYVR but I can't download the images from the BC WMS server via Earth.

Thank you so much for clarifying this, I was scared it had all vanished and I had become homeless and I was ruined... I really gotta wonder, sorry for prying, but how big does a website like this get? And what is the bandwidth that it uses?

X-Plane's realism is often reported as being accurate in flight dynamics but poor in world modelling. Therefore, I have created a new addon that will fill all the water and the oceans of the planet with algae and rubbish to make it more like the real world. So far, I have completed the task of filling them with algae blooms that are opaque. Here is one photo for previews, let me know what else I should add to my "polluted world" series. Just kidding - this is what happens when you leave a gritty texture detail on a semitransparent ocean texture. I though I had started my plane in a sewage treatment plant, but upon further inspection, I discovered that it was simply the dredged coral reef surrounding the island.

In the official FAA chart, it is listed as W. What do you recommend? I don't want to redesignate runway names, I'm trying to keep realism at a maximum level for this project (and it's working until now).

A call out to everyone: can someone explain why the following runway title is not accepted by WED? 08W/26W These are the official designations of the southern sealane at PHNL.

The file is no longer available through DropBox. Please contact me if you would like to test-drive PHNL as it is at this very moment, I have daily updates going onto DropBox.

That one is actually illegal as well :/ beware. So is donating to be able to use it. I wish we could actually do this stuff and it NOT be against the rules.

It is sad, isn't it? I mean look at the 3D detail thrown into the new Google Earth cities... imagine flying over Seattle with their 3D city... man that would be amazing EDIT: Also wouldn't Google benefit? I mean, if they sold areas like Seattle for like $50.00USD a pop, they would make a KILLING. And people would BUY IT.

So far it's grinding along at a disgustingly slow pace and extra hands would certainly help. If anyone else is interested, I need some people who can do the following: -AI Taxiway Layouts -Normal Mapping -3D Modelling for Airport Buildings (Until someone else builds me some airport buildings that are actually custom, I'm using included Default XP10 library objects).

Alright. Yeah, from more than 500 feet away, the yellow vanishes and the whole taxiline turns black.

OK folks - I need you opinion, yet again on Taxi Lines: Which of the following taxilines looks better? I like both of them, btu the black ones look funny from a distance. I don't want to go any further with development until I have a couple of opinions since I would have to go back through about 400 taxi lines and alter them. And that will be painful. So let me know soon please EDIT: Also, how should I go about doing the taxiway surface signs (the runway indicators)? I can't use the normal OpenSceneryX ones because their layers don't conform to my scenery.

If only InsidePassage would be updated to be ANYTHING like this.

Sorry, but I'm a bit confused as to what it is?

Alright. I guess my information was from a guy who primarily flies (a) light sports planes and ( fly by wire airliners.

So I have some information on the MU-2 from a friend's dad who is an ACA A330, B777, and B767 pilot, and he says it's a pain in the ass to land. I'd love some other options for cockpits to model.

Yep, done it. I feel like there is something rotten in Norway.

Every aircraft. The updater claims I'm up to date.
