A601 - Start of UK tour

[EHM-1199 Philip]

I remember many moons ago before the big EHM crash and relaunch I was one of the most vociferous in arguing for a new UK tour. Thanks to Ian, despite some resistance it did come in to being, and then, for months I haven't flown it. Basically I wanted to wait until all my UK scenery was in place. So, over the next few weeks I hope to drop a couple of images the way of this group. (Apologies for the resolution written in the centre - I was working in PSP not FSScreen.)
The first image is shortly after take-off from Heathrow. The airport can just be seen in the top left hand corner of the image.

The second image is flying past Gatwick.

I flew almost due south from Heathrow until I met the coast at Shoreham and then followed the coast road (A27 - M27) until I was in sight of Bournemouth International Airport. Great flight and well up for the rest of this great UK tour.

Great shots and that scenery looks incredible. i am thinking of getting VFR terrain for the UK and i lso might buy the VFR scenery;)

Razza - without wanting to tell you what you will or won't like - go for the VFR scenery over the terrain. The VFR scenery comes with a terrain for the UK that is perfectly acceptable and you really need the VFR scenery to take advantage of a better terrain.
IMHO anyway.
The scenery can be purchased quite cheap off EBay.

Can I just ask why you have 1194x614.

[EHM-1199 Philip]

I didn't capture the whole screen - just the interesting bit.

Very nice shots and beautiful scenery.

I love the blue rotors too.
