My interest in FSX started because of Hawaii , and the first place I visited there was Dillingham , more precisely Dillingham Airfield for there is no town near by. This is a place you didn't know you knew - for if you like me are an avid fan of LOST there is where they film it.
To read about it click on the image above or click the Read More link.
This is a 2745 x 23 m VFR only airport, located on the north shore of Oahu, Hawaii where people can rent a glider and enjoy the view - lots of fun so long as you don't crash in the mountains or in the sea, me, once there I took an FSX Aircreation Trike Ultralight to do my sightseeing ...
Arrival in Dillingham was in style, no one ever knows who is watching ... so I did it in a FSX Flight One Cessna Mustang, approach is very easy and poses no challenge, unless you are flying at night.
It was early in the Morning - just a bit of haze, visibility was excellent, real time weather was courtesy of HiFi ASA .
Here we are, it must be great to start your trip this way in real life, at least we can do that in FSX, now lets start some sightseeing ...
for me, Dillingham and its surroundings are better experienced flying low and slow, the whole Island is a great place to explore, and this is a great place to start doing that. It was still early in the morning and visibility wasn't improving , but who cares, it only added to the experience.
time to go, there is really no difficulty in taking off, Dillingham runway is long enough in my opinion for a 737 to take off.
AEROSOFT Hawaii Dillingham X , MegaSceneryX Hawaii, FS Genesis HAWAII PRO MESH FSD-125 , REX, FEX, ASA and Flight One Mustang for FSX were used in this article,
The Airport and its surroundings are very FPS friendly, this is not in any way a 'heavy' add on. Install was very easy - using an EXE .
ENB Mod used @ 1920x1200, AA x16, AF x4 - FSX-A set at high settings. FPS locked at 25 FPS, no stutters or sudden drop of FPS noticed.
Screenshots were taken by ThomasDWeiss on an Intel DX58SO, Intel Core i7 920 Quad Core 2.66GHz, 4 GB 1333 RAM (CORSAIR XMS3 2x2GB PC3-10600 1333MHz), 2x500GB RAID 0, WinXP Pro, Nvidia GeForce GTX285 1 GB - and were not edited in any way other than resizing.
as always, we do not profit from any sales of anything we review.
