The Pompeii archaeological site, contained within the greatly-expanded Italian photogrammetry coverage of the World Update IX addon.

It really is a massive site! Having participated in a few archaeological digs, it is incredible to imagine the amount of work that has gone into excavating such a large site, since its discovery in the late 1500s. It is really neat to be able to see sites like Pompeii and Herculaneum in photogrammetric detail.
On another note, here are some more screenshots recently taken of the FlyingIron Spitfire with the latest update released a few weeks ago. With it there is of course now the option, via the tablet in the cockpit, to use either FlyingIron's period-dressed pilot figure or a MSFS pilot. From the miscellaneous options within MSFS, you can now select a modern fighter pilot figure, which matches well with the same type flight gear that many pilots flying warbirds today use. Since I prefer to only fly representations of current/restored warbirds in MSFS, using the modern MSFS pilot seems to be a good match with the modern/restored repaints.
It doesn't necessarily work every time, but I found a process where I can "remove" the pilot figure for screenshots. I do this by starting in the cockpit view and then activating "slew mode". In slew mode I move the aircraft into the position I want, then exit slew mode, which brings me back to the cockpit view. While still in cockpit view I press Pause and then I go into the drone camera mode, at which point usually the pilot model will not be present until you "un-pause" or move the camera too far from the aircraft. I haven't tested it out to see if it works with the FlyingIron pilot figure.

Ooooh - I can't wait to see your photos. You've had some of the best in previous sims. If you're brand new don't miss the biggest upload/file site for the new sim: flightsim.to - I also highly recommend anything from Working Title (including the G1000 Nxi free mod in the Marketplace in sim): https://www.workingtitle.aero/packages/
There's a lot of addons now - plenty of scenery from our previous beloved designers. Don't miss the Fenix A320, PMDG 737-700, Milviz C310 (similar to A2A Accusim), FSW C414, SWS Kodiak, Just Flight Arrows!
