i decided to do a quick hop from KLAX to KLAS. the scenery is 30m resolution data for height mapping. the ground objects are all default,with the exception of a different night highway texture. this is just after sunset, so they are a bit dark. anyways, enjoy!

inbound to vegas about 50 miles out. notice I-15 snaking its way through the desert.
...


over boulder city. vegas is off the portside in the distance.
...


intercepting the RWY25L ILS. notice I-95 below.
...


my personal favorite with the vegas strip in the background.
...


on the ground safely.
...


holding short of RWY25R. notice the 737 in the upper right hand window on takeoff.
...


after holding short for 3 departures and one landing, i finally get to the gate.
...


....... i walk past the slot machines in the airport with my loose change urging me to play a couple spins, but i hold out for the Megabucks machines at my favorite casino.  time to head over to Whiskey Sky and enjoy the vegas nightlife!
