Finally learned to do a cold start without looking at a checklist. Took off for a familiarization flight around Tibilisi. It was early morning, about 08:00.

@FCS_Heater & Para_Bellum

When looking at them just before posting last night, I decided that one was my favorite as well for two reasons. First, it just looks beautiful with the light hitting just right. Second, A-10s from that squadron in Battle Creek Michigan always visit the airshow in Oshkosh, WI so I sort of feel I have an affinity with them. yep I also have a beautiful print hanging on my office wall done by artist Rick Herter of these Battle Creek, Michigan A-10s dropping ordinance in Kosovo; although I believe they are A-10As.

They look fuzzy, like your HDR is set to Warm.

After some testing, I turned off HDR (or set it to Normal, but got off of Cold or Warm).

The new atmospheric effects in the latest version of A-10 and Black Shark really stand out IMHO. It is amazing to me the variations one can experience in these sims with a few tweaks in the weather section of the mission editor, or setting the time of day and time of year, put fog in and still another amazing experience, visually and flightwise.

@wheelsup_cavu That is a nice one indeed. Thanks for the compliments.
