No, just photogrammetry.

I started in 1960 with this.
Then 38 yrs later started again with yearly versions of mfs and pro pilot on a Compaq computer and a Microsoft joystick. All the way to fsx. Now using msfs on a Xbox because I really can’t buy a souped up pc to run the sim. Between 2010 and 2016 I owned and flew a c150 in real life.

I loved the sim on the C64!
With frame rates that were in the single digits and graphics that were so minimal that the instruments were almost unreadable, one required a certain amount of imagination power to complete the illusion of flight, lol!

When I started to get reacquainted flightsim on the XBOX I dug out my old FS2000 manual - I still like thumbing through the pages on that book.

There is a plane in this picture. Maybe even 2 planes.
Island hopping with the BN2 Islander in Greece.

Did you do this on/have you tried PilotEdge? They simulate ATC for this area and adds a whole new level of realism (and stress lol) to this.

Been having a lot of fun with the LearAvia Lear Fan.
It’s taken over as my #1, knocking out the TBM 930.
Flew her from KSAN to KLAX. Very smooth ride. The “Candy Cockpit” has grown on me.
As of this writing, having another go at the stock A320 and hopping from Las Vegas to San Francisco, flying 4Simmers’ Delta Airlines Livery.
I’m finally on the last stretch of my 50 hours for the Achievement. (“Rookie numbers, kid!”) Should hit after this flight.
Touched down…aaaaand the Achievement is bugged.
50 hours 52 minutes logged according to Logbook. No go for me.

All I had time for was a leg of the Iberian bush trip, which is thanks to the DA62 is really really easy

Flew to Alta Norway and made a complete hash of the landing.

Fiddled around with the Carenado C182T (Cessna Turbo Skylane) climbing over the mountains out of the Los Angeles basin – compared to the vanilla 172 (Skyhawk) at altitude it’s like a rocket. 
For some reason Carenado modeled it with G1000 but with the Bendix/King autopilot instead of the Garmin one; this is a little funky but works ok. Also had to program in the ref speeds for the G1000’s speed tape, since they didn’t seem to be pre-populated for the 182.

First flight in New Zealand. Southern Waipounamu, Queenstown to Tekapo. Saw some intriguing sites along the way, even picked up an elderly man from the first one.

Flew the FBW A230neo from Scotland to the Faroe Islands, completing the flight with a “challenging” landing!

I hope you got the right one.
Wouldn’t be a saga if we did that… huh?
Maybe a dumb question, but do you have some sort of middle earth mod?
