When can we move into the simulations of Canberra?

1 October 2013 | johnboy

This in from John Dow:

I applied for unrestricted access to the Canberra airspace to celebrate the ferry flight of my new L-39 Albatross into Canberra. I don’t think they had any idea what they were in for when they approved it!

I made this video to showcase the incredible Canberra Cityscape scenery for FSX from Maurizio Giorgi and ORBX. More than three years in development, the scenery combines with Hugh Johnston’s Canberra Airport scenery to provide the single most detailed and realistic city scenery ever released for a flight simulator, period.

What hardware is that running on ?

I thought it was pretty darn impressive until I saw the bad particle affect for the fountain.

That.

Love the scenery, but what makes people think that adding a doof track actually helps?

The doof track adds to the atmosphere for me. If you don’t like it either turn your sound off, or perhaps in your case, slip on one of Mendelssohn’s slower concertos and wonder why people avoid you…

Pity it still has the Parkes Way / Kings Avenue roundabout!

Well I’ll use one of the kids expressions ‘cool ‘.

A flight through the acton tunnel would have made it uber cool
