Flight to Zion (a first offering)

[llivaudais]

Hello.

 

I've waited for years to have a machine that could record and edit flight videos and the time has finally arrived.

 

I'm new to this venture but every time I see someone adding to the FSX sticky "How do you keep FSX interesting?" I want to point out some of my flights but couldn't do anything but maybe copy over one of the in-flight "recordings/.fsr" files.

 

Now I have no more excuses... my effort at this point may be amateurish but, hey, I'm having fun.

 

This first "Why I fly" offering is a remake of a years-ago FSX flight through the canyons of Zion Nat'l Park near St George, Utah. It is edited a little to clean it up.

Let me be my own first critic: it's too long; so hang tough and enjoy it if you can...

comments and criticisms welcome.
