Cheers Nick... I Googled St Barths and the images are very realistic in those screenshots. Wonder what scenery is being used. Looks like an interesting place to get in and out of.

Looks like Tingwall or somewhere equally nondescript

Can you tell I didn't really look at those shots (outside of the Islander) or count the pictures?? However, while Tingwall may not be as exotic a location, it can still be very challenging to get into and out of given the weather in that part of the back of beyond

There may well be a Tingwall shot in there somewhere, but it was definitely the island approach with the rather crammed in runway that made my mouth water.

Here's a rather impressive shot of Saint Barthélemy approach which is remarkably similar to screenshot 6 in the aforementioned thread... There were quite a few similar shots when I Googled, so I don't think it's Photoshopped.

Hi Gary

Yep.That's how St. Barts really is

Fear not mate.. the default FSX St. Barts looks little like that (mine doesn't anyway) but if you use your imagination, you can see where they're coming from

Holy wotsits! Just found this as well!

Which makes St Martens look positively pedestrian in comparison.

There is a fence marking a clear space. A guy was killed there recently when he stood directly below and was hit on the head by an aeroplane.

OUCH!

After further research, I think that the original number 6 screen is taken using the FlyTampa St Maartens-St Barts scenery add on. Looks pretty good.
