FTX announced this latest scenery and I'm wondering - where's that?  After Googling, I found it a hundred and twenty five due north - right in my home state, barely.  Guess who forgot to raise the gear - it's difficult to grow old gracefully when you're already senile  Smiley.

I'm so used to seeing Cessnas with fixed legs I did not even notice. Roll Eyes

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

My gear is normally down, and welded at the factory.  Did you order Orcas yet? - got my pre-order notice on NRM this a.m., pictures shortly  Smiley.

No, I'm waiting on Northern Rockies. I'm hoping it will be released next. I want to get Orcas but I also want Darrington, Concrete, Israel's Farm, etc. Can't get them all at once, have to do a little at a time.

Check this out - NRM, pre-order today.

First is looking downstream at Revelstoke, BC and the second is heading eastbound, upstream into the rockies.
