btw that second shot,just below the bridge,you can see the marina i live in,on the lower left side,there are a series of covered docks,a boat ramp and a second marina.i live on the dock closest to the public launch ramps in the marina closest to the channel..thats awesome detail.
this is looking from the channel to the marina,but the long narrow shed 7 back is where i am,you can see the public launch ramps just beyond,with Ladds marina beyond that.you can just see the stockton sailing clubs marina to the top right.

Dave I have been very impressed with what I have seen in X-Plane 11. I added new textures from Orbx in the areas I fly in and all I can say is WOW! I love their True Earth Scenery especially low and slow. I don't get to fly much in RL but when I am up there I keep seeing X-Plane scenery. This is a fine simulator for the money. Yes, I still fly FSX once in a while in case you were gonna ask.

hi ted,i had switched to xplane,i hadnt used fsx since id found p3d,i was really impressed with xplane,and this from orbix almost makes me ready to reinvest
 
I have it and it's awesome! I've used their products on FSX, glad that Orbx is releasing scenery for X Plane.

*Patiently waits for So-Cal version to be released*

Working my way around X-Plane and it is impressive.

Just invested in the few ORBX packages and that really makes it pop.
Really looking forward to the HD package(s).

I'm off the air for several days as of now as I'm about to finalise a new build box and start transferring everything over.
:encouragement:
