Piper PA28R Arrow towards Dovestones
Winging it at 100 knots towards the dam wall of the reservoir. No I did not crash, but there were a lot of complaints to the CAA re my low flying in this. Note, the hills in front and to my right are the Saddleworth Moors which were alight this year. These same hills are overflown quite low by civil aircraft airliners on there approach to Manchester International Airport and so a plane such as this Piper would not be allowed to fly like this here.
This scenery uses a clever combination of photo realism for the distances - so the sides of these hills are almost exactly as I would photograph them with the small ravines and colours but the 3d ground detail is added afterwards, sometimes one at a time by hand, making it less real but giving us fliers a chance to fly around solid objects to examine the other sides. Another feature for me is the incredibly realistic lighting as seen on the side of the hill and shadows. From high - it is as good as the real thing from a jet-liner passenger window.
(See adjacent photo an 4x pips too.)

Very nice sequence, and information. If you hadn't said, I would have thought you were really up in the sky!
A far cry from the British Airways training simulator I had a quick go in many years ago.
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend
Peter
