OK, so it's FSX, but I'm heading due south past Beaufort and Cape Lookout with Real Environment extreme, into Irene's eye. We'll see how their weather depiction is. View attachment 46816

I wondered about that; love to see what you find. Tighten your seat belt....

Much better - this is actually Active Sky Evolution. Weather depiction is very impressive.

What you can't see in the stills is how the aircraft is bucking like a bronco on autopilot. Real cockpit effect is excellent too. (Shakes the cockpit with turbulence, on landing, etc. Very cool.)

At 20,000 feet, the sun is showing, lightning still popping in the storm below.

Ghostrider,

Great pics!

One of these days I’m going to get back to the Outer Banks and do some real exploring. Thanks to "Dad" I did once fish Currituck Sound - beautiful out there.
