Finally had an opportunity for some FSX time. Especially enjoyed the landing--one of the nicer water landings I've made. Taxied down and ferried out. Nothing special, I suppose, just enjoyable:


Coming in to land on Akers Pond (Errol, NH):

Very nicely cropped. The extra effort makes a big difference. Excellent set. :)

Thanks, folks. Glad you enjoyed them.

John, I hope to release the scenery north of Mt Washington in a month or two. I'd like to add water and some autogen, since it can make a world of difference, especially around airports when coming in to land.

:) JEH, actually, the screens aren't cropped. It just depends on which monitor I'm using. When I'm using the 32" widescreen, I play with the extra horizontal space when composing the shot. The rest of the time I'm stuck using the little 20" 1280x1024 monitor. And I miss all that extra space the widescreen provides. :)

Thanks. That part of the world is very beautiful. A lovely mix of hills, mountains, and water.

I took off from Akers Pond and made a flight to Bethel, the area is beautiful. I compared default Akers Pond with Google Earth and I must say it looks rather realistic with the houses along East-Side road and the other side of the pond.
I landed in a pond near Bethel airport:
