/images/notams/notams22/neil0701.jpgHere we have over a 100 secluded and at times very difficult to find airstrips, widely located around the whole of Ireland. These airfields although accurately positioned are purely artistic licence on my part. I have done my best to make the fields as realistic as possible, but please don't blame me if I get the occasional thing wrong. I used VFR Flight Guide IRELAND by Kevin Glynn to help create the fields, although it's a bit out of date and some of the airfields have possibly dissapeared.

/images/notams/notams21/tabu0718.jpgStreamflow, or channel runoff, is the flow of water in streams,rivers, and other channels, and is a major element of the watercycle. The record of flow over time is called a hydrograph. The wayMSFS terrain looks as we see it is because of water flowing over theterrain. This scenery adds those water features that have shaped terrain allaround the world. These are visible mostly everywhere you fly; theyreflect sunlight and they are also visible on aircraft's terrainmaps. UK/Ireland Waterflow adds 153,394 water features connecting lakesand rivers through small to medium size streams. No impact on framerates. Coverage: UK and Ireland.

/images/notams/notams18/gfni1012.jpg Announcing Group Flight Northern Ireland 24 Hour Sim Session EventFor Charity: Sunday 04/11/2018. Departing 0800GMT for our very first 24-Hour event, which we willbe streaming live on twitch and being flown live on the VATSIMnetwork. In the process we will be raising money once again forCash4Kids Northern Ireland and all money raised goes directly to thecharity. Our fundraising efforts so far have a total of over£1800. Group Flight Northern Ireland are a group of flight simulatorenthusiasts from all ages and backgrounds. It all started whenAlphatech in Newtownards offered us a sim type rating on their fixedbase Airbus A320. This course ended with a type rating on thesimulator with various tests to prove we had the standards ofreal-world pilots. Robert Hamilton (Event Organizer) then had an ideaof getting a team of pilots together and having all day sim sessionsas a group. The idea then was made of streaming online and Robert hadtalked about raising money for charity in the process. Thus, GroupFlight N.I. Was Formed. The team have become great friends and knowhow to fly but also to know how to have a laugh at the same time. The aim is to fly real-world ops to make it as realistic aspossible but by having fun at the same time. We want viewers tointeract and pledge small amounts money to force Alphatech to stageemergencies to keep pilots on their toes, these pledges will also gointo a draw for prizes. The event will take place from Newtownards Airfield in NorthernIreland on Sunday 04th Nov and for the first time we will fly for 24Hours straight over 14 Sectors. The first flight will depart at08.00am GMT and they hope to arrive at the last destination around08.00am GMT the next morning. Fingers crossed!

Night XP UK And IrelandPublisher: TaburetReview Author: Rene BruunSuggested Price: $14.99/images/fsc/wbicons/pilot-shop-buy.pngBeing a keen X-Plane user, I am always excited to see an add-onwhich enhances the world of X-Plane, especially if that includes mylocal area (Ireland). Below is the developer's description from thestore page... IntroductionNight XP is a nocturnal scenery for those who like to live life atnight, and for those who like to fly spectacular night scenery! We have blended existing X-Plane 10/X-Plane 11 scenery withnocturnal textures to bring the night world alive! Exactly as youwould see it if you were to fly on a real plane at night, morespecifically as a real pilot would see it at night! This title takes full advantage of the X-Plane scenery system andis very gentle on frame rates. It also works alongside any HD mesh,photo-realistic scenery, airport scenery, or any other scenery youwould like to put on top of it. The installation is very easy and works with all Windows operatingsystems and Mac! InstallationThe zipped file is just 82 MB in size and is a quick enoughdownload. Once unzipped, you'll find 16 individual folders which haveto be placed into your 'Custom Scenery' folder (it really is thatsimple to install). A PDF explains how to install the add-on andgives basic info about the scenery. It also advises the user that for the best possible results, yourscenery settings should be set to EXTREME (gulp)! DocumentationAs mentioned above, there is a single PDF file which explains bothinstallation and uninstall procedures. Being only two pages long,it's a relatively short read and is very easy to follow. Upon reading the PDF however, I noticed a glaring omission thathadn't been mentioned in the store description page; namely the systemrequirements: 1GB VRAM minimum, 2GB+ VRAM recommended. As my machine was below these requirements, I was not particularlyoptimistic about being able to use this add-on. Had theserequirements been listed in the product description, it would havehelped me decide on whether or not to purchase the product! However,not one to back down, I decided to carry on with the review. UsageFirst off I fired up my X-Plane installation to take some screenshots of the default night textures. For reference, I am using a 2012 iMac, 12GB of RAM but (here is thebig limitation), only a 512MB video card. When I originally purchasedmy Mac, I hadn't intended it to be a gaming machine, however, sincejoining the X-Plane community, I have found its GPU to be slightlylacking with high end add-ons (I won't make this mistake again with mynext iMac). Because of the VRAM limitation, I have to set my objects settingsin X-Plane's rendering options to 'tons', and 'texture resolution' to'high'. HDR is a big no no, as my graphics card simply wouldn't beable to handle it. Taking off from Dublin (EIDW) in a Swiss 737-300, I climbed overthe city and out to sea. Below are the screen shots of the defaultX-Plane night textures. /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image1.jpg /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image2.jpgAs you can see, they are acceptable default textures. Of course,they would look nicer with HDR, but for me, they look fine. So now intrigued, I installed the Night Scenery for UK & Irelandand fired up the simulator again. Performing the same route as before, I noticed that there were nowareas of the city, which exhibited a yellow hue! Personally I foundit looked a bit strange, but it did seem to have the desired effect ofadding more light to the area. I am sure if I had a high end graphicscard, the textures would look better. I tried two different settingsto see if I could make any improvements to what I was seeing. FirstlyI changed X-Plane's textures from 'high' to 'very high', and below aretwo screen shots showing the results. /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image3.jpg /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image4.jpgThe results I found, looked oddly strange, as the default roadsshowed up over the yellow hue textures on the ground, which in allhonesty, was a bit distracting! Hoping to improve the situation, Inow enabled HDR lighting. Unfortunately, this had the effect oftotally killing my frame rates! /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image5.jpgEven with HDR enabled though, I could not see any noticeabledifference (however this could be down to the limitations of myGPU). PerformanceThe scenery itself, like the developer stated, has very littleimpact on frame rates, unless of course, if HDR is turned on. If youwant to enable HDR, then the recommended systems requirements of 2GB+VRAM is the way to go. Alas, not all X-Plane users have the means to own a high endsystem, so for users like myself, I feel slightly let down that therequirements needed to run this add-on were not listed prior topurchase! Below is a comparison image side by side for you to compare... /images/reviews/nightxp/t/image6.jpgConclusionIf you have a high end machine which can run X-Plane at 'extreme'rendering settings, then I am sure this would be a good add-on topurchase. For me though, running on my now limited video card, I willcontinue to use the default night textures as these willsuffice...that is, until I get my shiny new iMac later this year! Pros:Small downloadEasy installationHighly affordableSimulator improvements (with correct hardware)Cons:Minimum system specs not listed in the developer's description ofthe add-on - meaning you're paying for a product you may not be ableto use.Review System:27' iMac2.7 GHz Intel Core i512 GB 1333 MHz DDR3AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512 MB/images/notams/notams17/tabu0314.jpgRene Bruun Purchase Taburet - Night XP UK and Ireland for X-Plane
