Sunset at Gig Harbor, Washington USA

**HardCub** · 08-12-2012, 11:09 PM

Something new from me... a collection of float plane pictures in FS2004. Using real-time weather with Active-Sky-Evolution software this evening at Gig Harbor, Washington, I flew the rustic floatplane version of the Carenado Cessna 185F over to Ivar's Seafood Bar on Lake Washington, near the Renton Municipal Airport. REX2004 certainly delivered some intense textures into the ASE software.

This is my own FS2004 version attempt at some screenshots done in the amazing "twilight-style" screenshots that Adam usually shares with us from his FSX system. Not as detailed as his work, but I thought for a random flight they came out pretty well. Enjoy the pictures.

Very nice. I love the Carenado C185.
I've been to Gig Harbor in RL once. Nice place.

@fbobum:

Thank you Rick.

@Paxx:

Thank you so much.

@mtrunz:

Thank you Mario.

@alexf:

Thank you Alex. I've always wanted to go there. My partner (Doug) is there now visiting some friends. He returns to North Carolina tomorrow evening. I was supposed to have gone too, but some major $$ repairs where needed for my car, and that took care of that. It was a real bummer. I love the PNW region.

@gizmosells: Sometimes Nick, going by air is the better method.

Although, a boat ride can be nice too.

@lifejogger:

Thank you so much John. They kinda reminded me of the style Adam shares with us sometimes.
