Yep,
saw it on ORBX this morning and jumped on it.  I ordered via credit card and always have used the same card etc.  Since my last order the expiration date on the card changed so this time I get the message my download can't happen until funds have been transferred.  Never had that message before.

That's just nature's way of telling you that you should be using PayPal.   ::)

And don't forget (if you already haven't done so) to set yourself up for Orbx's Senior Discount.

Okay, I'll stop being mouthy now  :-X

Well, at least the price of our flight fuel stays the same ... we're going to need plenty of it for this area!

Hi all,

Check the compatibility section of the SAK User Guide.  RTMM gets a shout out from ORBX....awesome!

""Return to Misty Moorings" (RTMM) freeware add-on scenery

"Return to Misty Moorings" is a very active community of virtual bush pilots and freeware developers focusing on the area covered by Pacific Fjords, Tongass Fjords (see below), and Southern Alaska. In addition to a large selection of scenery and AI add-ons their site is also packed with information about many different aspects of this corner of the world. Moreover, they have already begun to create add-ons for SAK so make sure to visit their website and forums at http://return.mistymoorings.com/."

Thanks, ORBX!

Nah, don't do the pay pal thing but discovered that due to the way Adrian's store page is layed out I mistakenly checked the wrong box.  I have gone back in cancelled the first order and set up a download for SAK via my Credit Card as I normally do.  (Have a card just for the net) and have 36 min. to go.

I've got to get a faster plane!  This thing is HUGE!   I've gotten from Juneau up to Skagway, down to Glacier Bay and up to Yakutat (Hubbard Glacier).  That's the turn-around area for many of the cruise ships that do the inside passage from Vancouver. I was there in disenchantment bay with 3 other cruise ships watching the Hubbard calve. Boy this is realistic.

Don't forget your sunglasses to prevent a complete white-out !

I hardly was aware of the decreasing height during the final when landing on the glacier with a Cessna 185F SKI. But the  texture of the snow shows off very realistic. Also there is the effect of sliding downhill when you are on a slope. So I had to look for a horizontal piece of snowy terrain.

Really, really nice work ORBX !

It seems to me very realistic (as far as I can judge, since I don't have any experience on flying/landing on skies) !! 

A happy flyer in South Alaska   ;)

Looks nice indeed.

Huge amount of airports listed as improved but are there any that are amazingly standout in this addon?

Just purchased, downloaded and installed SAK.

I did my first Flight from17AK Temsco Base, Ketchikan to PAJN Juneau Temsco Base.
Wow, even the Juneau SAK Airport Looks great! I wonder, what the upcoming payware PAJN will offer!

Juneau seems to be a great place for whirlybirds! Two Heliports (Temsco and ERA) and some helipads on PAJN Apron. :)

Tomorrow I will discover the Mendenhall Glacier! TEMSCO helicopters offers glacier tours and dog sled tours there.

Arrived at Anchorage ... then started flying around that area low and slow. I've never seen so many airports, they must be little communities around them and everybody has a plane in their garage.  There is almost too much to take in.  But I'm thinking "air-taxi Service" ... just finding those little strips and going from one to another could be a lot of fun ...let alone what Holger and the gang stuck out there in the wilderness.  It is impressive.
