i was flying and came across a whale lol since when was this a thing [Microsoft Flight Simulator Screenshot 2021.10.14 - 15.09.15.57]

Isn’t that just from the Iceland Overhaul mod on (I believe it was) Flightsim.to?

I believe i read somewhere that if you find a whale in the Sim and capture a photo, Microsoft will reward you $1 million. I just used your screenshot as proof so let’s see if I get it. Thanks

I’m calling hoax ! How did you snap that image at that exact moment ! Touche ! :slight_smile:

It’s a simobject that developers can place themselves. It might have been in there since the beginning or added with an update, not sure. I’ve stuck one by Bishop Rock lighthouse as there was a real one there for the first time in living memory recently, it is a bit frisky though.

Yours is much more realistic than what I see. Mine appears to leap 24/7 and I’m pretty sure real ones can’t do that without breaking. Maybe it’s pleased to see me.

Actually I wondered where it came from. I was not sure if it was Asobo, your Scilly Isles mod, or the AlroCreation lighthouse mod. Mystery solved thanks. (Oh yeah and I did tweak my vid with CyberLink PowerDirector video editor)
