FSX Ship: Norwegian Pearl

Post by FlyTexas »

This doesn't really fit anyplace else so I thought I'd place it here. :worried:
While searching for additional FSX ships I came across this ship built by Larry Robinson.
Image
A very nicely modelled ship with beautiful texturing. The MDL file is only 540kb in size so you get really nice frame rates. :)
She can be downloaded from http://larobinson22.wordpress.com/
Click on 'Links to Scenery Files' at the top of the page. The Norwegian Pearl link is the last link at the bottom of the page.
If my signal flag knowledge is correct the flags spell "s h i e l d y o u r e y e s d a v e b o o k e r". :hide: ;)

:lol: :lol:

I wonder if that's the one I watched being built on TV.. Monster Ships/Mega Ships.. something like that?? *-) Perhaps not.. that one is based in Florida and I think the one on TV is based in New York. Whatever.. it was equally vile! :lol: Still.. it's the way things are going and any new ship for FSX is a good thing ;)

EDIT: Found it.. it was Norwegian Breakaway ;)

:lol: I was reading online about the amenities on this ship and read that it has a 4-lane bowling alley onboard. :lol: I'm currently sailing her from Isle of Man to Liverpool. This ship is sailing along at 32 kts. :RN: Here she is about half way across.

The programme about the building of Norwegian Breakaway said it had more restaurants and bars than any other cruise liner. It's a floating party! :lol: Check it out online.. they look very similar ;)

I'll definitely do that. :thumbsup: Arrived safe and sound in Liverpool. I found what appears to be a car ferry dock so I assume this is where other ships dock too. :lol:

After an extended stay I decided to flee, er, depart Liverpool (under the cover of darkness) for the lovely city of Dublin. :)
