There's fun to be had in other kinds of vehicles, too...I think this ensemble is comely. Especially the suppressor.

I posted this not-at-all photo realistic image to one of the Big Bear FB pages in a sim-related thread where more tech-savvy folks hang out...and some of the old folks are expressing legit concern about my choice to land an Airbus in Big Bear City. Apparently, the giant call-out floating above the airport did not strike them as unusual.

Bumpkins are awesome.

The U.S. update dropped - lots of new imagery.

The folks on that boat are about to have a fecal incident...
