Title: Longview Ranch
Post by CHUCK79 on Sep 25th, 2012 at 10:01pm
One from OrbX that is right up my alley........

This is Longview Ranch (OG39) and also included is Land's Inn Ranch (49OR)

Land's Inn is a great place to operate a crop duster out of........look out for cattle wandering across the runway :o


See the butterflies?


Longview Ranch is used by the Forest Service as a refueling and water filling station....


It can accomodate large USFS fire bombing aircraft such as the DC-10......anyone know where to get a good fire tanker repaint for Tom Ruth's DC-10???


Hangin' out on the tarmac....waiting for somethin' to happen ;)


Longview also has a 3200X120 foot artificial water runway, which makes for some challenging water landings.....look at the baby ducks :D

OrbX hit a home run with this one as far as I'm concerned.....thanks 4 looking :)

Great shots. How is the framerate? Somehow most of the Orbx airports have a big impact on my FPS.

It causes a hit on my system........I lower my autogen to normal and my FPS lock to 20 to keep it smooth ;)

Slick set Charleston! 20 locked and normal autogen is my everyday struggle-to-enjoy-it settings, but a new PC is in the works that should improve that situation...

Hi Chuck... :)

I have two ORBX Sceneries:
-FTX NA Blue USA/Canada Pacific Fjords
-FTX Pacific Northwest

Tried to do a flight from both the above locations you did your flight from and there was no buildings or other scenery, just the runways.

The State of Oregon, is that not in one of my ORBX Sceneries or is it part of Tongass Fjords or another ORBX Scenery Package?

Hey, Doug 8-)

Unfortunately, Longview Ranch and Land's Inn are both in the Central Rocky Mountain area of the OrbX sceneries. Also they are not included in the main release. They must be purchased seperately ;)

You ask about a repaint for a fire tanker. Well I did one of my own. I did a repaint of one of my CLS DC-10s of 10 TANKER AIR CARRIER which is a fire fighting company out of Victorville California. I am friends with them on Facebook and did a paint of  one of the DC-10s they use. They loved the repaint looks just like the real one only no belly pod on mine in the sim. I will post a few shots I have of it for you so be looking for my post I wiil address it to you. Maybe you can us the scheme if you like it.
