ORBX's Stewart released for Flight Sim (FSX)
ORBx has released Stewart Aerodrome (CZST) in British Columbia, Canada, with an insane 2cm per pixel ground resolution! Amazing quality and very little performance penalty. I installed it this week and it was all the pre-release screenshots promised. Wow!
It is a beautiful area in the border between Alascka and British Columbia. Flying from there to Ketchikan (also specially treated by ORBx), makes the sim flights a joy.

The Mayor of Newark put it very well
Cory Booker, the Mayor of Newark - New Jersey has my respect. He put it very well in a statement about equality under the law and the rights of citizens in this country.
It is avoiding what other states have done (NC most recently), which is tyranny of the majority. De Tocqueville would have approved.

Aerial shots of Opa-Locka (KOPF)
A few recent shots from a visit to Opa-Locka airport Florida (KOPF). Opa-Locka is a great airport because they keep all kinds of old airframes parked, sometimes for years.
The color is funny because it was shot through a window of a C182. I normally avoid shooting through windows but had no choice here.

ORBX does it again! Awesome Stewart BC coming out!
I am ready to get Stewart BC (CZST), about to come out from Orbx, my favorite software development company. What these guys do for FSX is outstanding. They have now added a pre-release teaser for Stewart Airport from Orbx for Flight simulator X and P3D (coming out this month). Details at 2cm per pixel. Unheard of in the serious flight simulator world.
Am I getting it? You bet!
