Flight simulation: a Beech Staggerwing over Saskatchewan

The screen capture above represents a Beech Staggerwing virtual aircraft available through the Carenado company, in flight early morning on a winter day over Saskatchewan, Canada.

Houses and the general scenery are a creation of the Orbx company, through their FTX Global Base Pack, FTX Global Vector and FTX Global openLC North America products.

The virtual clouds are a creation of REX Texture Direct and Soft Clouds. There is also an additional touch of drama through the use of Cumulus X. The virtual flight platform used was FSX.

In April 2017, Orbx again released new improved virtual airports for North and South America, available for free for flight simulation enthousiasts already using their commercial products. That was one more reason to go flying in Saskatchewan!
