Thanks for looking.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Gosh darn they look good Larry... Wink

I wonder how many folks know how long the paint job on those very nicely painted floats would last on a real working beaver.... Grin

Probably not a week after:
-you have mounted and tied several canoes or aluminum boats to the tops to be flown into a lake or camp
-you have pulled a moose, bear or deer up onto to them several times to be loaded inside
-old docks without bumpers....egads....won't even go there
-loading from aircraft into a boat pulled alongside
-dripping fuel onto them...very bad... Roll Eyes

They do look good though Larry brand spanking new.... Wink

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Thanks Doug, I'm glad you like.

I can imagine. But this one, for all practical purposes, is spanking new. I have not had the Aerosoft Beaver long and this is the first flight of this particular livery. And there are several others I have not flown yet. I keep meaning to do a repaint of one with a weathered, well used look, but it keeps getting put on the back burner. But then I would have been a charter member of Procrastinators Anonymous if I had ever joined. Roll Eyes

I am really loving this FTX PNW scenery. In that last shot, it looks about as real as you can get to me. Wish I could have it for the entire globe. Roll Eyes

Get your calculator out. Based on the acreage you just spent sixty bucks for, come up with a number for the rest of terra firma. Hey, they got my sixty too and I love it

Yeah, I thought of that. But, you have to consider that they only broke down their continent into four blocks, so I'd say it won't be near that steep. But I bet they do Alaska separately. Sad

On the other hand, if one had the money and bought all of their packages, including airports, plus all the other really good ones by other companies, that individual could tic the last box in the 'How much have you spent?' poll.

And would you believe I still have not got around to installing Au Blue? Plus I'm downloading all the Trentino, Matterhorn, Mt. Bianco, etc from our server.
(There is a TV reference in the last paragraph, are you smart enough to get it?

Guess not

. Can you imagine how many Gb an Alaskan download, from them, would be. They'll have to start packaging HD's with their sceneries.

"Would you believe" from Get Smart, old sitcom.
Had not thought of that.
