engine70 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Today's flight in the Longitude takes us from an early morning departure in Orlando to a stormy (and incredible looking) arrival into Exuma Island in the Bahamas. All five passengers are on board at Orlando Executive, we have our clearance and we're ready to roll Lining up on runway 25 The sun rises over the horizon as we near the east coast of Florida Passing Freeport Cruising over Nassau at FL370. We're actually already nearing our TOD on this quick one hour flight I only checked one place for weather in Exuma and it wasn't updated, so these storm clouds were a bit of a surprise We descended through some precip but quickly emerged only to find we had to turn right back towards the storm. Also catching my first glimpse of a rainbow in MSFS, but more to come! This was the most incredible visual I've ever seen in a flight simulator. Double rainbows, rain has overtaken the field but the sun is still shinning on my aircraft on short final, just amazing stuff! I somehow managed to stay focused enough to give our five passengers a fairly smooth landing into a rainy Exuma Island At the end of the rainbow is a Citation Longitude, which at a cost of 26 million dollars is probably more valuable than a pot of gold anyway Thanks for viewing!

jankees Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 wow that rainbow shot is spectacular! Not sure if it is realistic, but it feels as if mother nature puts up a show only for you Slapping paint on flightsim models you'll find all my FSX/P3D repaints here and all my MSFS repaints here.
