peer01 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) I just checked in at the Bimini Hilton. I use my reliable amphibian 6x6 Off-Road Truck to explore the beautiful Photosim Lab Bahamas scenery by our Forum friend Barnardo. I lost all my FSX screenshots I made since March this year. :mad: The external HD I used collapsed just at the moment I gathered all FSX screenies on it to save them on my second PC. All other stuff on it was saved already, phew.... Here's my floating truck: Please click on the pics to enlarge: Thanks for looking! GREETS!!!

azzaro Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Until recently Toronto had a Hippo Bus which did city tours on land and water. All drivers had to pass the Von Peerhoven landing exam. :p -- Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7-7700 3.6GHz / GTX1660 6GB / 32GB RAM / 49" Samsung CHG90 / WIN10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLW Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 That scenery looks great no matter what type of water vehicle you use to get though it, on it, or under it - just so it does not have wings. :cool: :cool: :rolleyes: Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalizzi Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Reminded me of my childhood, I had an Alvis Stalwart truck by Matchbox that looks exactly as the vehicle you used. BP Exploration was written on its side. I remember my dad -who worked in the oil industry after he retired from the army- explaining to me that oil exploration entailed that vehicles go to some rugged terrain that only such a 6x6 amphibian can handle.

In Jan's case, he doesn't care what gets him to the water, can be a plane or an Alvis Stalwart! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peer01 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 TSK!! I never open windows (people can throw things into it) , there are great hatches on top of the cab. And I'm Dutch, so we all end in the water a few times (no matter in what type of "machines", even trains btw) in our life. Besides that, I'm talented and handsome, and a lot of you are NOT!
