engine70 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I'm sure most people know at this point, but MSFS added snow textures. I've been hoping to check them out for the last week but haven't had much luck using live weather. My next Frontier Flight I had scheduled through A Pilot's Life was from Denver to Calgary, and as luck would have it there was light snow passing through Denver at the start of the flight so the snow textures were on full display. The weather in Calgary was cold, but otherwise it was partly cloudy skies and calm winds. The ramp agents battling the elements getting the aircraft ready for departure The passengers on the other hand get to enjoy the warm terminal while they wait to board The snow was short lived and by the time we were taxiing to the runway it had cleared up Holding short of 35L waiting on our takeoff clearance We're out, see ya Denver! Passengers enjoying the view on the climb out Cruising at FL360 passing Bozeman, Montana Descending into Calgary Speed brakes are out trying to slow this thing down On final for runway 29 Welcome to Calgary! We may have bumped that pushback tug on the way into the gate, but the scuff marks will buff out Thanks for viewing!

jankees Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Tubeliners never interest me that much, but I do like these shots! Slapping paint on flightsim models you'll find all my FSX/P3D repaints here and all my MSFS repaints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
