161st X-Plane.org fly-in (Halmstad)

-return to picture archive-

 

The final fly-in of our screenshot contest took place in Halmstad, Sweden - the location chosen by Urf, whose winning entry to the screenshot contest was a spectacular shot of a Concorde landing at the Bristol Filton historic fly-in - click here to view the pic. For some reason the sim was really unstable this time, crashing 4 times during the day! In case you're wondering why the Finnair plane is listed twice below... I accidentally got switched to the A320 when restarting the sim after one of those crashes, and didn't notice until way after I had made one of my worst-ever landings at ESMT! Also note that for these screenshots, the Halmstad scenery has been (hastily) modified to look more snowy by converting the textures to monochrome and altering their contrast and brightness - these modifications are not available for download due to copyright reasons.
