g7rta Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I was flying around Bradford when I spotted this at Allerton, not too far from where I live...

g7rta Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Nice shot Steve how did u get the throttle to work.i have it sitting on the tarmak engine runny and can't throttle up thank you :) When you start her up, you want to make sure you flick the two switches. taking the engine off idle. or.. an easier way is to press the "Ready for Takeoff" button, on the brilliant flip out panel. You can also do other things from this panel.. like opening (or complete removing) the doors! I still can't believe this helicopter is freeware. It's excellent & everyone should get it (from flightsim.to) Regards Steve Intel I9-13900K - Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX - 64Gb DDR5 5600Mhz - Asus RTX4090 ROG STRIX 24GB 3x 43” Panasonic 4k TVs - Corsair RMx 1200W PSU - 2 x 2TB M.2, 2 x 4TB SATA III and 1 x 4TB M.2 SSDs.

Robert1936 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Some pupils at a New Zealand secondary school did a giant phallus in the playing field (using Roundup, I guess) don't know if it's still there. I think (can't remember) that it was visible to the very high-res satellite imagery to which some agencies have access. It was certainly on Google Earth.

g7rta Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 I’ll take a look at that later. Looks like a target doesn’t it? Have you seen the poppies on Pendle Hill? I’ve walked up there a few times previously but didn’t know anything about them… till I spotted them in Flight Sim!

tiger1962 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 It does look like a target, maybe Robin Hood was here? :p I'll have to buzz Pendle Hill now, I haven't been over there yet...

g7rta Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 Hey there's a thing - I wonder how many crop circles have been found in MSFS? There's probably loads, but I haven't found any yet :) One thing I have just spotted tonight, thanks to Orbx GB Central.. Castle Hill & Victoria Tower!
