BillD22 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Here are some shots of an American Airlines A320 landing at Washington Ronald Reagan National Airport (KDCA) and taxiing to the gate in today's real world snowy weather in DC. The airport was right at minimums. If you look carefully in the just before the runway turnoff shot you can make out the Washington Monument and some of the government buildings in the low visibility across the Potomac river in downtown DC. This is the first time I've seen snow effects in FS2020 and I have to say I'm pretty impressed!

NMLW Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Nice work with the low vis approach and landing Bill. Great snow and ice effects on the runway, taxiway and aircraft. :cool: :pilot: Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Nice presentation to a very nasty weather approach. That poor AAL aircraft looked like it took a beating from the elements! Thanks for sharing Bill! Rick :cool::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djfierce Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Nice work Bill. I feel like the icing effects in this sim are a bit brutal, but......maybe that's just life? lol Enjoyed this one. - James Intel i7-10700F 2.9 gigahertz - 16GB Memory DDR4 3000 megahertz - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB - 480GB SSD + 1TB HDD - Windows 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rick, James, and Larry. I agree - I think icing shows up much more often in FS2020 than it does in the real world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
