    Default Skyhawks at Skagit Regional (KBVS)

    Hello everyone.
    This is a collection of FSX screenshots I wanted to share with you. It's Microsoft FSX, the incredible Orbx FTX PNW scenery, and the extremely beautiful 'Cessna 172N Skyhawk II' model from Carenado, wearing a variety of repaints.

    I hope you enjoy them. ~Glenn

    This is the BEST Skyhawk model version ever created in my humble opinion.
    It's one of my all-time favorite aircraft designs.

    This particular one is my favorite. It was custom-painted by the very talented Adrian Thompson.
    Adrian originally made it for me in FS9, but I transferred it easily into FSX, and it looks sensational!

    The blurred distant mountain textures is due to the FS-Altitude software being installed. Once you start gaining altitude, the scenery will change to beautifully rendered landscapes that mirror the real-world visuals.

    Orange? Green? Yellow? What? No blue??? You got somethin' against blue, buddy?! Huh?

    Just kidding Glenn. My question mark key was sticking, I just needed to loosen it up.

    Excellent clear shots of some flashy paintjobs! ?????????????????????? Darn key! — Bob

    Fantastic shots Glenn, you can't beat orbx scenery and those paint jobs on the 172 look great.
