Rupert Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 While on a recent road trip after visiting Phantom Tweak and Miss Ghost and returning from the Puget Sound in Washington I passed Devils Tower Wyoming. So soon after arriving home I fired up the trusty Maule and saw how it was portrayed by FSX using ORBX World. Approaching Devils Tower at about 5,500'. The top of Devils Tower. Approaching Devils Tower Village Noticing the village only had a chopper pad I had to change over to the Huey to land there. Check this area out yourself!!;) Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzaro Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Been there in real life. Orbx does indeed present a very realistic scene. All that's missing is the tourists. And the prairie dogs. -- Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7-7700 3.6GHz / GTX1660 6GB / 32GB RAM / 49" Samsung CHG90 / WIN10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCD Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Jan's right! I should check my FS9 to see how it's depicted there (I think I might have some of Holger's freeware for that area). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCD Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Spent about an hour scouring the landscape of Wyoming, never did find the Devil's Table in my FS9. I guess I do not have any Holger stuff for the area and MS just didn't bother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCD Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Oh, you are the masterful thief, aren't you? Keep your hangar locked, that's just the kind of admission that could result in mysterious sightings of Von Peerhoven aircraft flown by those other than aviators trained at your world famous watercraft school!!!

kalizzi Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Great shots Michael.... Klee hinting at close encounters of the third kind with Peerhoven and his mothership?

adamb Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Wonderful shots Michael! :) Jan, I was sitting wondering why nobody lives within 50 miles of your house, must be a reason I suppose. :rolleyes::D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushp04 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Now, the "Peer Estate" photo posted by Macroburst is downright eerie!! I like Peer01's the very best. (Jan, would you care to share where this colorful beauty originated?) :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Fly Southern, Y'all" bushp04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
