Thanks for the HU, Tom. Nis has put a few late nights into this one, by the look of it. Bruce

And there I was, minding my own business, doing nobody any harm, having a quiet try-out of the stage from Baghdad to Athens, just drifting in on my final approach, when I suddenly noticed, SOME BLOODY IDIOT BUILT A FACTORY RIGHT AT THE END OF THE RUNWAY - WITH THREE CHIMNEYS! (and the tops are even camouflaged). www.image-upload.net/files/3954/Imperial Airways/SC%20BA.jpg[/IMG] ho, ho, ho! Leyland

Leyland, Is that the default FS9 or Golden Wings?
At least the factory was closed...imagine the updraft as you flew over those chimney's if they'd been operating! ;D

Bruce, It started life as GW3 but has a multitude of bits and bobs added since (including FS Global SE mesh). The updraft did cross my mind, now that would have been REALism! These new flights by Nis are pretty comprehensive, you can find a flight over just about any topographical region you could possibly want amongst these stages! I chose the Baghdad to Athens because the area's in the news so much and friends have just returned from a holiday in Cyprus (which I chose to overfly), so I covered ground that had been talked about a lot, one way or another, recently. Get your free geography appreciation classes at TOH folks! Leyland

Leyland Aaah, yes......my GW3 turned into such a confusion of add-ons that I ended up uninstalling it. My FS9 has gone the same way. I need another hard-drive, I think. Not only free geography lessons but also history classes. ;D Bruce
