A Grand Grand Canyon Tour...Part One

Hi Guys,

I'm still having fun with Premaircraft's Twin Otter. I decided to take a tour of the Grand Canyon, since I've never been there in real life. ( I've been all over, but not there!) I have terrain mesh by FS RealScene, and I gotta say, I love it! The best $46.00 I've spent on the sim!

I departed from Sandhill Ranch in Page Arizona, at the northern terminus of the Canyon. I flew for an hour and a half, and still I'm only half way through this natural wonder. I dipped in and out of the Canyon a few times...it got a little tight here and there! I landed at Grand Canyon Bar 10 airport in Whitmore AZ. Two of the shots were edited for color, just for curiosity's sake. More shots to come! Enjoy!

Take Care! :-wave

Chuck

--> Yes, there is a lot to discover in FS9 and I have the same problem --> it is hard to decide which shot to take an which not. :)
