Back After A Long Hiatus

Happy December, everyone!

Well, it's been a long time since I've played MS Flight Simulator...my gosh, my last post to this blog was almost 2 years ago!

Anyway, I'm getting back into it, and went ahead and purchased ActiveSky, a fantastic weather program that creates, among other things, the most amazing clouds, sunsets, and sunrises. ActiveSky has really re-invigorated my flight sim!

After a couple nights of flying with ActiveSky, here are some of my favorites. Click on them for a free hi-res version for your desktop.

Delta Connection Flight 32

On our way, slogging through rain and wind


Now there's some photorealistic storm clouds for ya!


We get high enough for some sunshine to peek through


Clearing the Clouds...


Descending back into the clouds


The setting sun casts a purple shade across the clouds.


Descending into Hades (you mean we have to land in that? We made it, turbulence and all, but some passengers sported white knuckles)


You can see the real Delta Connection aircraft I flew here.
