Richard, the rain shots are reference shots again - rarely seen shots close to reality like those!

Knowing well the efforts you made to make water puddles and wet effects in P3D, in MSFS Asobo have these ready. The default materials have them included and for custom ground poly (projected meshes in MSFS lingo) materials, one can define the surface as concrete, asphalt. paint etc and the rain effects will apply.

The downside is that no matter what normal map one makes for the material the Asobo material will overlay and will prevail. This reduces the clarity of details included in the textures like cracks in custom asphalt etc.
 
Thank you Manschy.
Despite its imperfections, MSFS nonetheless remains a great tool for capturing or staging our beautiful planes.

In most cases I am deeply impressed by your choice of perspectives, how placing the aircraft or which background or objects you use to create a "close to reality" scene. You have a good eye for these things and this is what most of your shots - to my eyes - makes a big difference to others...
 
Peter Teichman took his "Russian Spitfire", PT879, from North Weald to Cotswold for a visit today, so I thought I would retrace the same flight virtually.









 
A few more Blériots?

Britannia was the third Bleriot imported into New Zealand, to promate aviation in NZ. It made several demonstration flight around Auckland in 1914. but an argument over an unscheduled passenger flight lead to the firing of the pilot. There were no other pilots in NZ at that time, so the aircraft was put in storage, and later sent back to the UK. A copy is now hanging in the RNZAF museum.

Took an early morning flight from Chubu to Tokyo, with Mt. Fuji almost exactly in line.
