Nijmegen, The Netherlands (aerostockphoto.com)

Trees could use some upscaling, Nijmegen is traditionally quite green, so trees in the city are old. A painful detail: the railroad bridge over the Waal has disappeared in the water… and the other bridge is not really the same signature…

Here is a recent video I made flying into Sedona, Arizona, landing on runway 3 compared to real footage landing at the same airport. I’m still a bit of a beginner :wink:

Funny idea to show 2 landings… you did a good landing, with that stormy wheather !

I’ve some new pics for the London-Greenwich vicinity… it’s definitely improving ! there is even traffic now :relieved:

Seen from the river

Buildings on ultra, texture high, anisotropic filtering on - for handcraft it does not do much, that is already textured properly. Trees improve (very) on ultra…

English wheather…

Nice. Do you have a link for the white panel, or is this your creation?

I visited the new Icelandic volcano at Fagradalsfjall - in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. The landing was made in the new free Airbus Helicopter H 135.Vulcano

I used to be fortunate enough to spend quite a bit of time in Entebbe. It’s a lovely place, wish I was back there now… lunch at the Lake Victoria Hotel or the golf club, then a few bottles of Chairmans ESB in “The 4 Turkeys” bar :smiley:

Katwijk aan Zee, Alexandersluis, Nederland

Note the huge difference in the tides: on the above RL image from Wikimedia, high tide, the sim shows low tide. Strange thing is, shown by the sim, there is a house in the flood line, on the beach. Several houses… although the Dutch tend to gain land on the North Sea, they would build a dike before building houses :smile:

Blanca Lake one of my favorite hikes in the entire PNW shown within the sim and a pano I took from a hike I did there in 2017. Just need some terrain fixes in the sim and it would look almost exactly alike.

Amsterdam, vicinity of Westerkerk

This is how it used to be

And now let’s :partying_face:

And… it looks a bit “crumbly” even with ultra and 4x4 texture, but we have a far better Amsterdam !

Another one Rotterdam Harbour… WU4 is a beginning… but this place is crowded with ships and goods and I would expect far less green color in the scenery… Rotterdam is really not that green :grin:
