Awesome Wonderful shots, Doug... Wink...!

One of my regular Flight Sim haunts around the Los Angeles Valley. Santa Monica to San Diego following the coast!

Nice and warm there....(shame about the Fog/Smog!).

Paul...Spent the day touring around the San Francisco Vineyards in my Cessna 150... Cool...!

The prospect of Snow, Ice, and freezing cold, always puts me off touring Canada and Alaska... Sad....(I like..."Warmth!"... Smiley...)...!

Paul the Inspire Server says it only supports FS2002 & FS9. Why doesn’t it support fsx?

One of our Pilots uses his FSX on the FS Host Server through the use of FS Host Client...with no problems.

Most of us use FS 2004, with FS Navigator.

Have a peek down in the Multiplayer Forum for FS2004 + FSX connection details... Wink...!

Paul.... Cool...!

Thanks for the comment Andy and I find that conversation with Paul very interesting.

Have often thought about trying something like that but what I know about computers would fit on a head of a pin and still leave room.... Grin

Yes the one thing I picked up from Pauls Link was that FSX was not mentioned.

Hoping to get to Australia, New Zealand and England in the near future.... Wink

The two picture you posted above look real good... Smiley

Thanks Paul for the comment and the Link was very interesting to read... Wink

During the summer months Paul it can get as warm as any State in the United States...believe me... Wink

Many times they get more snow south of the Great Lakes in the United States than we do... Grin

Where we live on the Great Lakes the weather is damp but in the north of the province it is a dry cold and much nicer.

We still have no snow here, had a little and now it just seems to rain.

Doug.... Wink...

I reckon I've been watching too many "Ice Road Truckers" and "Buffalo Airways" TV Programs, whilst sitting in my arm-chair wearing my Woolly Hat, Mittens, Bearskin coat, and Snow Boots, just to get the "feeling" of the experience...

To me...every thing North of the 45th Parallel is covered in Snow and Ice, and populated by Polar Bears... Shocked....!

I suppose its one of those climates that you get used to, over time, especially if you were born there?
I think I should have been born somewhere near the Equator, under a warm Sun... Roll Eyes...!

Paul...A pair of Bermuda Shorts would be nice... Cool...!

Yes it has got a nice VC. The exterior textures aren't very good though. The detail was lost when the person repainted the blimp.

I've got the original blimp & the textures are much better. Just Google search k-ship blimp fs2004 & it should come up. It works fine in fsx. Wink

Those really are amazing ones Cool. Love the mood. Tongue
And Paul, do you pre meditate every flight? Cheesy
 

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.
