Caravan flight

[scubakobe]

Hello everyone, I decided to take a flight in this wet and cold condition here in Southern California
----
Everything went smoothly, except there were a few bumps along the way. Then when I was set up for the ILS, the ATC told me to go around .
----
By looking at the graphics of the second screenshot, do you think I need a new graphics card? It's really ugly looking.

There's nothing wrong here...I wish I had these low visibility view...

zoomed out tower views are not always very good and building textures don't come out so well....

Yah, when I look out the window towards the fog my FPS goes way down. The movements get delayed and it gets jerky. I killed unneccessary processes with Task Manager so more cpu power would go towards the game, and it helped alot. And about the tower views looking bad, I thought it was a problem with anti-aliasing, which my graphics card barely supports. I have my hopes high for FS X, hoping that they will fix these sort of problems.

Ok, so I was backing out of the ramp when something weird caught my eye. Well, I guess FS2004 creators predicted that airplanes will have new windows that allow you to look out and see the scenery, but not the obstacles!
So, I saw the tail of my plane peeking over the caravan next to me, but where is the rest of my plane?
Check this out! ;D
