Oh dear, Jonesy. You gave up the opportunity of a trip to Alaska and the Pacific Northwest because of work! I think you need to change your lifestyle adviser
If your folks managed to take any decent digital photos of their trip, I'm sure nobody would mind you posting them or linking to them here - I can host them on my site if needs be. I have very fond memories of my times in Anchorage and I love the atmosphere in Seattle (even if the climate's more damp than Manchester!) and I'd love to see some recent pics. There are plenty of us that like visiting the area in virtual reality who'd be interested.
Some more WIP shots of the FSX version this time - the last 1% is taking some time!
As well as a couple more liveries, I've toned down the bump mapping and made the specular mapping less even...
