Nice shots!  And yes, pleased to say I've been to a few of those places RW, mostly in a H-46 and they are fairly well depicted. 

 

Having said that, lucky for you these are sim shots.  For some reason authorities all over the world started to really freak out when we fly under bridges over the last few years.

I enjoyed the shots.  As an old H-46 pilot who also had some H2P hours in H-34s I'm always interested in the new ride.  Having said that, the Osprey doesn't seem to be very well respected as of late.

 

I was scheduled to go for a ride in one during the Ky. Derby Festival a couple of years ago.  Sadly that got shut down because of the Covid issues.
