BillD22 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Here are some shots showing off some of the weather effects + exterior, and wing view details of the A320 in FS2020. In this series an Air Canada A320neo is on approach to runway 29 at St. Johns International Airport (CYYT), Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The weather was the current CYYT weather for earlier today with some fog banks rolling in off the ocean. This kind of weather is typical for coastal locations in Newfoundland. Judging from the first and second wing shots I think FS2020 has some of the best and most realistic depictions of low clouds and fog like those here that's been seen in a sim so far. See what you think. Inbound with low lying fog banks are on either side of the airport. The runway 29 approach lights & runway are just visible straight ahead of the airplane at the tip of the left fog bank Approaching the coastline Closer views of the coastal fog.

Rupert Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Those as all your prior posts look very good Bill! ;) However having reviewed some of our prior shots I can't say they look better. You've always done great shots!!:cool: Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Love the low hanging fog! First actual landing I’ve seen anyone do in MSFS :pilot: Good point!! As a not "Firster," I've wondered about that as well!!?? Is MSFS that difficult to fly? If so why?? As a RW pilot I have to wonder Is the software not accurately evolved as a true sim yet? I've already read from the Airplane Owners And Pilots Association that this isn't a true pilot training product compared to other sim products on the market. Does their version of "flying" relate in any way to RW flying or is it just another online game they hope to rent to xboxers like the "flightsim" they tried and failed to rent about three years ago? The last point, based upon my discs bought over ten years ago and the software I've bought and downloaded and have on my hard drives from sources as FSX P3D and ORBX is, I own that software. And yes, it takes up a bunch of hard drive space but it is still my software! BTW: Hard drives are truly cheap now!;) Why would anyone choose to pay full purchase price to rent an online program that may be cancelled tomorrow that they could buy and own without fear of being cancelled? And yes, I did read Lokee's post about operating a server to provide as much data as the new software displays. But what value will any of that data be when, not if, Microsoft decides this format, like many other formats they've already cancelled doesn't provide the required short term Return On Investment!! I agree 100% about the amount of data now presented online. I also know and understand that Mircrosoft has never wasted a moment cancelling any project that didn't provide immediate profits!
