P3D/P4D screenshots redux...oops!

I had forgotten about these birds and today I spent several hours and three attempts to get the BF108 into P3D v4.5! It took a lot of cursing, swearing, hair pulling and the application of a large virtual hammer to persuade her to play nicely but I got 'er done in the end and she is a beauty in P3D! She flies nicely, trims out well and almost doesn't need an autopilot but I added one anyway in a pop-up panel along with a better GPS unit. Here's some Kodaks to enjoy!

It's like with the 190: you'll have te reposition the textures, get them out of the 4096 folder and put them in the main texture folder.

I haven't posted in here for a while but after the 'All Sims Air Tour' Rob and I were tired of day after day of cold, snow and fog (we get enough of that in real life living in Canada) so we decided to head off to warmer climes. Our plan was to start in Key West and then fly a figure of eight plan around most (but not all) of the airports in Cuba as neither of us had spent much time there apart from maybe the occasional stop en-route to some where else!

This was just after take-off on departure and trying to avoid the docked cruise ships lurking just beyond the end of the runway.

Enjoying the flight over the deep blue sea of the Gulf of Mexico!

It appears that we hadn't totally escaped the fog but this time it was a coastal sea-fog that became a common thing whenever we got close to the coast. I think I can see the runway!

I was surprised by the height of some of the hills/mountains in Cuba, I hadn't expected that at all!

As is usual with us we had a plane swap to prevent boredom becoming a thing and this time we went with our recently installed Taifuns and it was quite a learning curve learning to fly these beasts without blowing them up and getting them to play with our added pop-up autopilot panels!

Once we had completed the Cuba tour we needed another challenge so we decided to keep going by scooting across the Caribbean Sea to Central America and then following the coast around to Venezuela where we plan on visiting the majority of airports there. I only managed to grab one Kodak on this part of the trip as I was busy learning to fly a recent acquisition in the Carenado Xmas sales but I was amazed to see how large the mountains were in the Colombian coastal ranges! I was at 17,000 feet and it was barely enough at times, I didn't expect to see snow-caps there either!
