AGaiN we can show how much fun it is to Sim the old Boeing jetliner..
coined "too good to be true" in it's day--an advanced designed indeed.
Latest trip from the Bay area to L.A. basin in all kinds of weather..
day-night. Here are combined screenshots of a few trips.

SCENERY FOOTPRiNT

Oh.. let's not forget to mention the scenery footprint. What is the
correct term for the `field of view' area seen below in URL? LOD
something or other? It works quite well on 32MB nVidia card. Sure
there are limitations but it's LOTS of fun with the classic Jet!!
