.......in the Quest Kodiak.
Scenery by Mega-Scenery Earth

Flying up the Columbia River valley from Wenatchee (KPAE).

Made a quick stop in Chelan.....going over my checklist before taking off again.

Landing near Stehekin.........it's actually behind the plane.

Thanks 4 looking

Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Awesome shots Chuck79 Shocked

Is that plane payware as well?

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

Beautiful shots Chuck.

Yes Hyper, that's the Quest Kodiak by Lionheart Creations. And it is very, very nice. Comes with wheeled and amphibious versions and a bunch of liveries.

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

Very nice shots!
I've been thinking about getting it, looks really cool.
I know someone who has flown it for MAF, and the STOL videos are awesome.

Not a fan of those glassy cockpits Huh

The sky, scenery and exterior of that bird was all made for eachother, really looks stunning.

I don't think the aces ever thought their sim will ever look as stunning as this.
