Tern Island

WoW! Thanks Joe ... this is an unexpected location and one to get the locals out of the states for awhile. :) I appreciate your contributions.

LOL, people in Hawaii just love it when someone refers to the mainland as "the States". It's enough to send my Hawaii-born wife into apoplexy. "We're a state, too!" she stammers. Pretty sure Tern is part of the Hawaiian chain. :mixedsmi:
 
Thanks, Joe! Great work!

Thanks, Bill! Honestly, it was just a screenshot flight, startet from Tern Island (i have no big flight time at work days). But Takeoff and Landing have been not faked.

Nice shots! I've gotta take my 130 up and try that route, too. Where did the flight originate?

I normally just make short hops around in FS (I bore easily), but the only long flight I ever do with any frequency is from Tern I. to Oahu. It's a longer flight yet still manageable .
 
I have made flights from Midway, about 3 hours in the goose, and Barking Sands on Hawaii, also about a 3 hour ride. Then you get to land without striking and hitting a bush .................:icon_lol::icon_lol:
 
Go down to the trailers and park at night.
Somebody in the trailers is lonesome. The other night sound is the generator at the brick buildg. Gotta have a gen ..... Florida Power don't go there!
 
Awesome scenery but i dont get those nice shores that are showing in the screenshots, mine are jagged and the default texture runs all the way to the water, and i have bushes on my runway? Some kind of scenery conflict? Caused by another landclass? Any other ideas?
 
swimeye,
Joe stated that Acceleration is required for Tern Is. to work. Could this possibly be your problem?
 
No, i also have acceleration, so it must be something else. I have placed the addon first in the scenery list. I have no addons for groundtextures, but i have myworld landclass installed.
I have REX installed with custom textures for watr and reefs but i do not think REX will affect the shores?
 
The shoreline problem ...... I don't know. The bushes in the runway is on purpose. Low maintenance on the runway. The shore lines are the standard shorelines. Are you running another Landclass program or one that changes the textures?
 
Thanks Joe:applause::applause::applause:
love it!
the birds, the fish, the sounds.
makes me feel im on vacation:guinness:

Thanks for your answer Joe, i will try to experiement with some landclass addons and see if that solves it.
It is a great scenery, lots of atmosphere ( do you use that word for describing a certain feeling in the english language?)
 
Henry ...... you caught one of the whales in that last shot. Very rare........ Nice shots.
Swimeye ... thats exactly what I use to describe it. Ambiance and atmosphere...
 
Ok. atmosphere is the right word then :jump:

And the wheater in Bananabobs shots added even more atmosphere to the scenery, those shots are awesome.
