Thanks for the video. I did my real world PPL flight training at NZWN - Wellington, NZ. It's a truly spectacular airport to fly in. Even doing circuits is fun. Standard circuits are right-hand off RW34, and left-hand off RW16. Standard circuits are diamond shaped and follow the peninsular, Non-standard are typically shaped with a downwind running directly over the city for GA aircraft. Standard and non standard circuits are done at at 1500ft MSL due to city noise abatement restrictions and altitude can only be decreased once over the water on base legs. Give it a go for a touch of realism in this virtual world.
Great job again Osamah! I Got x-plane a few months ago! A few learning curves but FUN! now! . May I recommend one of my fav default X-Plane 11 sceneries-- Twenty Nine Palms Cailfornia (KTNP) to Palm Springs (KPSP) Beautiful desert mountains and valleys, dry lake beds. All default!
I am not good about finding various airports around the world which is why I subscribed to your channel :) I have found some really cool stuff & probably the most significant is Reshade. Amazing effects in xp11 thanks Osamah!
You have almost identical airport taste to me haha. I almost always sim-fly in Alaska and western Canada but I did a round the world project at one point and that route included Salzburg, Lukla, and Paro. In addition to some of my other favorites like Courcheval France. How close is Mollis in Switzerland to Bad Ragaz? The area looked somewhat familiar. Also highly recommend Locher aerodrome in the Italian Alps, but you HAVE to do your own ortho mesh to make that one scenery work.
Once again great video,you must be applauded for what you are doing with your videos in promoting X-Plane and the makers Laminar should be grateful to you for all the work and time putting these videos together, there still is a reluctance by some in the Flightsim world to even give X-plane a look as it still as a reputation for having a setup interface which is very hard to get to grips with NOT like the NEW one in X-plane 11 that I have seen, also it's still getting a bit of bad press on media sites as not being a finished product after all the months since it was announced last year which I think Laminar did not help themselves by doing this and should have held off till a lot of things was sorted before the announcement maybe I'm wrong but I wonder what others think. Hope you carry on with the good work you are doing.
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your thoughts. Like you, I agree that release of x-plane 11 was probably rushed and not the best of decisions. I myself find it very frustrating having to update all the aircraft and other addons as PBs are released. I am sure though that we are not too far from the final version now, and I am quite impressed with how things are shaping up for the final release. Hopefully soon =)
I've shot the Innsbruck approach a few times in various craft, it's NOT an easy approach by any means. It helps I guess to be a local pilot and know all the ways in and out of that canyon besides a high-alt. approach into it. I haven't yet attempted it at night, though, which is even more difficult and dangerous. Even climb-out from Innsbruck is difficult due to the elevations and mountain terrain involved. Same with the airport near Machu-Picchu as I recently discovered, flying up to Bogota, Colombia. If you can shoot approaches and climb-outs like that you're doing well. Honestly Innsbruck and Machu made KTEX in Colorado look like a piece of cake! I also have done dozens of flights to Billy Bishop in Toronto, it's one of my favorite airports to fly into on XPlane11.
Brilliant video Q8 really, showcases the beauty of x plane and the amazing skill and creativity of those dedicated freeware scenery creators. thanks Buddy :)
Thank you for watching my friend. London City Airport is a beautiful airport, but it is probably one that is fairly popular and known to many. I tried in the video to pick locations that are probably not very known to majority of folks new to flight simulation =)
Thanks a lot for these beautiful videos. The colours are very strong and persuasive on your videos, are you using any particular plugins to improve the default effects in Xplane 11? Thanks you
Thanks buddy, the only thing that I do that most don't is that I run the sim at full texture resolution without compression. It makes a huge difference in color as well as sharpness.
Great vid Osamah. I love these "best of" type vids. Always make me go fly somewhere new! BTW, my BetiX Stewart CZST works just fine on my XP11 prb15. Not sure why your isn't. Bella Coola is even better!
Also... Bing has updated their BC images (as of last week). So lots of HD space to burn up around Stewart and Bella Coola now with good quality ortho in Canada!
great video I recently changed my colours for x-plane 11.2 to the Nvidia card rather than the pc I am still struggling to best true colour to use to enhance the experience do you a setup for the x-plane colours using the Nvidia Thanks
Hi, may I know your setup for night lighting in this video? Can you provide me a link? I used to have this kind of night light, unfortunately after my x-plane was updated I loss the files and I couldn’t remember from where I got. It could be from fsenhancer, but when I tried it didn’t look the same
Osamah, I'm loving all the videos you are presenting but, I gotta ask. How do you organise your life, to be able to do this? Just curious and a little nosey, I guess.
Hey Jon, well, it is really passion that drives to do it =) It takes a little bit of time management, family support and the will to do it really. Thanks for asking this question =)
My local airport is now is Wings Field (KLOM). There's actually a scenery made for it. forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/18609-klom-wings-field/ But I learned to fly in Ocean City, NJ (26N). I once flew into Trenton-Robinsville in the 1980s.
Suggestion, BC, Canada is gorgeous with many types of terrain, Desert, Rocky Mountains, hills, forest, canyons, valleys, ocean coastline, Islands, and farm land. Many sim pilots ignore this area, known here as BEAUTIFUL BRITISH COLUMBIA on our licences plates! A flight from yvr to kelowna, to kamloops, Prince George and finally full stop in Princd Rupert would really highlife our region of the earth. Stay safe... Kudos Q8!
That toronto scenery is missing some buildings around the CN tower. are you using the packages from isdg as it is a group package that contains both cyyz, cytz and the downtown core
Hi I have a question I fly in NJ know the small airport I fly into the taxiway is on the right but on a plane the all on the left and there no building just grass , that's the difference from FSX everything is were it should be . Anyway I can change the position off taxiway thnk you 🛩🛩
Marin, small default airports sometimes can be a bit off. Did you look for an updated version at x-plane .org? Often you will find improved sceneries available for free there. If you let me know which NJ airport, maybe I can help. I'm from the Philly area but learned to fly in south Jersey as a kid.
These are all very nice. It would be nice if we had developers on the level of Flightbeam or FSdreamteam on the x-plane side. Do es anyone know of a high quality scenery maker other than Aerosoft?
I would like to make a request of you. Please have a look at a ASUS PG348Q 21:9 format. You have some very serious kit, now that can drive the monitor. Please just try it and give me an honest opinion.
Bhutan and Lukla are truly dangerous, scary airports to fly into or out of. I wouldn't attempt either unless you're an expert virtual pilot! It helps to know instrument approaches, and also be in the right airplane for it, like the Twin Otter or whatever.
Hi Q8 guys...please how do you do to move night to day, day to night quicly? and to put the scenary up(view from the sky) Thanks and congrats the videos
If you download control panel for your phone or iPad, you can connect it to Xplane for free, and control everything, like time, weather, wind, and many more things. But I thing Q8 uses another display for the instructed operating centre, which is also free, you can change the altitude, speed, heading and everything control panel can do :’) (also if you want to move around the world, select “free camera” from the view menu, or press “c”
Good picks... X-Plane 11 crashed when i loaded in Mollis, And on short final on low graphics setting, it crashed the plane in the game and irl. As soon as i get better hardware, this is the first airport i'm flying to.
XP 11 has come along way with terrain. I believe it has set a new standard for global flight sims...I love it. I hope there are plans in the future to improve the look and color variations of the water.
I’m surprised with all the xplane pilots out there, one sees very little of Vancouver BC and the beautiful flying to be enjoyed around the coastline, islands, local ski hills, farm and city regions all the way out to the Hope region in the mountainous area.😧👍🚁✈️🤯
Hello ! Thank you for your help,i like your videos .,My computer is a AMD 4100 Quad processor 3.6 GHZ,8 RAM,video card ATI Radeon 7950 3GB but.,i don't know why my frames are not to good,in some airports i getting 15,20,30 frames rates but i don't know if is because the weather or my settings. some airports are empty like MMMX and some others,hope they fix because my frames in that airports are like 10 and do you know if they will fix the 737 because the altitude knob,autopilot and the fmc are so bad.ok thanks and continue making good videos ! ; )
You are FPS is not so good because you have 3GB only Graphic Card. Lower your settings as 3GB is considered very low for X-Plane if you want to run the sim at high or even medium settings.
Did you know they almost had to completely remake the CN Tower the big tower in Toronto because the helicopter that was going to put on the radio antenna almost ran out of fuel!
I do. Thank you for your most helpful reply. I am however interested in setting up an external camera to slowly move along a path through some scenery. Using the mouse to change where a camera is aiming is not what I was asking about.
Very nice video as always bro!!
Thanks buddy!
@VIDIT best wimpy kid book Collection fsx I think
I love the approach into KSAN. Looks amazing with Misterx, Real West and Orthophoto scenery. Watch the power lines on landing!
There is a new payware KSAN which look absolutely amazing.
Night time in Xplane is fantastic
Thanks for the video.

I amazed you managed to stay conscious during this video, with all the breath that was taken from you.
Well, what can I say ... I guess I have really healthy lungs. Thanks for watching the video =)
I love how unique every airport is
Great job again Osamah! I Got x-plane a few months ago! A few learning curves but FUN! now!
. May I recommend one of my fav default X-Plane 11 sceneries-- Twenty Nine Palms Cailfornia (KTNP) to Palm Springs (KPSP) Beautiful desert mountains and valleys, dry lake beds. All default!
I really like flying into Longyearbyen (Svalbard) also very VERY scenic
I am not good about finding various airports around the world which is why I subscribed to your channel :) I have found some really cool stuff & probably the most significant is Reshade. Amazing effects in xp11 thanks Osamah!
Most welcome Rand, glad you enjoy the channel content....and thank you for your support!
Thanks Q8Pilot for the great videos!! Appreciate your efforts :)
Very helpful and thanks as ever, Bruce
Thanks for watching Bruce!
I think St. Bart's is the most scenic airport. Very detailed!
Can you make an top 10 of standart sceneries?
You have almost identical airport taste to me haha. I almost always sim-fly in Alaska and western Canada but I did a round the world project at one point and that route included Salzburg, Lukla, and Paro.

sick intro song man, thanks for the vids
Fantastic....a lot of fun approaches I'm sure!
Thanks buddy!
I waited for this video for so long.
New to X Plane from FSX Steam and thanks for sharing the video!
Thank you for watching sir!
Excellent video Q8. Keep up the good work!!!!!!
Thanks for watching and for the encouragement!
Thanks again for another great video
Thank you for watching my friend!
Wow that looks stunning
Thanks buddy!
Awesome Places. Thank you Q8Pilot from Nepal.
Glad you enjoyed the video, regards from Kuwait =)

Great one my friend! ;-) as mentioned by others the Beti-x sceneries of Bella Coola and Stewart could well fit this list too :-)
Hey buddy, thanks a million, yes, it is working now. I guess I haven't tied since Pb1 =)
Excellent as always!
Thank you my friend =)
Thanks for sharing in this great video my friend.
Most welcome and thank you for watching it!
Osamah, awesome video I loved the Swiss Alps even in fsx. Thank you!
Thanks for watching buddy!

in Toronto, it's one of my favorite airports to fly into on XPlane11.
Amazing as always! Getting XP11 on Friday (Returned P3D)
Most welcome Rishi, thank you for watching!
Do you have a video where you do a complete aircraft startup and takeoff?
Great as always Osamah :)
Thanks a million Lee =)
Brilliant video Q8 really, showcases the beauty of x plane and the amazing skill and creativity of those dedicated freeware scenery creators. thanks Buddy :)
Thank you for watching Tim!
Amazing video!!!!! Thank you so much for these quality videos!! Would you consider London City airport one of them?
Thank you for watching my friend. London City Airport is a beautiful airport, but it is probably one that is fairly popular and known to many. I tried in the video to pick locations that are probably not very known to majority of folks new to flight simulation =)
Hi, great video... can you also please make a video for installation instructions for various essential plugins and sceneries
I am planning this in the next few weeks. Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot for these beautiful videos. The colours are very strong and persuasive on your videos, are you using any particular plugins to improve the default effects in Xplane 11?
Thanks you
Thanks buddy, the only thing that I do that most don't is that I run the sim at full texture resolution without compression. It makes a huge difference in color as well as sharpness.
Great vid Osamah. I love these "best of" type vids. Always make me go fly somewhere new! BTW, my BetiX Stewart CZST works just fine on my XP11 prb15. Not sure why your isn't. Bella Coola is even better!
Thanks Steve, I will be sure to check out the scenery now =)
Also... Bing has updated their BC images (as of last week). So lots of HD space to burn up around Stewart and Bella Coola now with good quality ortho in Canada!
great video I recently changed my colours for x-plane 11.2 to the Nvidia card rather than the pc I am still struggling to best true colour to use to enhance the experience do you a setup for the x-plane colours using the Nvidia Thanks

BC usually has rain...but yvr has had record heat for two months lol....not sure about Stewart however
The weather in British Colombia is pretty good but unpredictable.
Well done. What source did you use for the Swiss Alps photoreal scenery?
Hey Peter, I use the BI source.
Osamah, I'm loving all the videos you are presenting but, I gotta ask. How do you organise your life, to be able to do this? Just curious and a little nosey, I guess.
Hey Jon, well, it is really passion that drives to do it =) It takes a little bit of time management, family support and the will to do it really. Thanks for asking this question =)
Thnk you Steve I'll try it we're in philly you at I may fly there 😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🛩

Yes I am using the ISDG scenery. Thanks for watching!
How do you do that "free view"?.
You missed Manchester EGCC that’s amazing
Good vid tho!!
Hi I have a question I fly in NJ know the small airport I fly into the taxiway is on the right but on a plane the all on the left and there no building just grass , that's the difference from FSX everything is were it should be . Anyway I can change the position off taxiway thnk you 🛩🛩

this brings me ever closer to pulling the trigger on XP11. Do you fly much in Switzerland in real life?
I can't say that I do no. Just remember thought that this default x-plane without any addons.
Can we see a video of KLEX please. I would like to see if my home airport was done justice before purchasing the sim.
Best online community if you are new to the Game?
These are all very nice. It would be nice if we had developers on the level of Flightbeam or FSdreamteam on the x-plane side. Do es anyone know of a high quality scenery maker other than Aerosoft?
That would just take XP to the a whole new level. Thanks for watching my friend!
Great!
Im having a lot of trouble trying to get PAWD
Nice one Q8 :=)
Thanks buddy!
Been there I bought an RC radio for my RC jet an I met the guy there it very nice flight
Hi! I just have the question for ortho in french airport. Which source did you used? Thanks
Bing
When the A320 will be released for XP-11, could you make a flight to Paro with it? Maybe from Katmandu.
Sure, I will make a note of that.
Great!
I would like to make a request of you. Please have a look at a ASUS PG348Q 21:9 format. You have some very serious kit, now that can drive the monitor. Please just try it and give me an honest opinion.
I will see what I can do.
VILH from India is also an excellent pick.
Bhutan and Lukla are truly dangerous, scary airports to fly into or out of. I wouldn't attempt either unless you're an expert virtual pilot! It helps to know instrument approaches,
and also be in the right airplane for it, like the Twin Otter or whatever.
Why not? It's not like you're going to get killed or anything like that.
it's cake! even in a blizzard. @@robertvertacnik9989

Mauro Navarro don’t worry, when I switched to Xplane from FSX, I knew nothing. You will learn so much in such little time, good luck! :)
Thank you friend!!!
Try VNLK OR VNSB for some dope flying.
I flew chabery airport yesterday with the carenado PC-12 😍👌🏼
Lovely, I am sure you enjoyed the approach =)
CYVR, Vancouver🤗
Good picks... X-Plane 11 crashed when i loaded in Mollis,

Make another one of these please! Something like best GA airports.
A very good idea indeed. I will =)
Is Innsbruck airport n the video payware, freeware or default scenery? If its payware or freeware, what is the link?
Great video!
Hello ! Thank you for your help,i like your videos .,My computer is a
AMD 4100 Quad processor 3.6 GHZ,8 RAM,video card ATI Radeon 7950 3GB
but.,i don't know why my frames are not to good,in some airports i
getting 15,20,30 frames rates but i don't know if is because the weather
or my settings. some airports are empty like MMMX and some others,hope
they fix because my frames in that airports are like 10 and do you know if they will fix the 737 because the altitude knob,autopilot and the fmc are so bad.ok thanks and continue making good videos ! ; )
You are FPS is not so good because you have 3GB only Graphic Card. Lower your settings as 3GB is considered very low for X-Plane if you want to run the sim at high or even medium settings.
Thank you ; )
I think xpalne didn't finish many airport in xplane like MMMX looks so bad the highways looks like atari
Airport is N87 Robinsville also sky manor N40
forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/28173-n87-trenton-robbinsville-airport/
My roads in the Swiss airport LSMF end in the grass. How do I fix this?
You can download HD Mesh v3. It is resource hungry, but will make the scene closer to reality.
I have it installed.
Fixed
Awesome video I'm still working on your livery sorry I restarted 3 times lol sorry
Thanks buddy!
Thanks for you work! Queensland airport in New Zealand is stunning as well! Check it out ;)
Queenstown
Awww, the True Earth Washington takes in Victoria but leaves out Vancouver andeast into the valley! 🤔😱🤯😂
sir,how to change time x plane 11 quickly?
wachins ctrl + k or l. press and hold.
lsmf isn't in simbrief :(
Did you know they almost had to completely remake the CN Tower the big tower in Toronto because the helicopter that was going to put on the radio antenna almost ran out of fuel!
Where in the US are you from?
villevirtanen00 I am from Kuwait =)
to be honest the texture scenery in google earths free flight sim is still better, especially in areas where the textures are rendered more accurately
Heeey! Where is Madeira XPFR scenery?!
Naples Italy, has great standard views...freeways and overpasses etc LIRN
Since xplane update 1130, do my eyes deceive me? The default scenery looks almost acceptable now...
Great video but... "All default and freeware scenery" then suddenly.... "now here's payware Salzburg.."
Thanks buddy! I do mention in the video that it will feature payware and freeware and I specifically mention which is free and which is payware =)
Can you change your sinister robot voice ?
calinutza33 yeah it's quite annoying but he does make good content so eh
lol my mollis is completely different
Hopefully better than mine =)
ur mollis looks amazing..!!! mine has a small terminal on the slope of the mountain at 40 degree angle lol
NORTHERN SIBERIA!!!!!!!!!!!
It may be nice but the skyline looks nothing like Toronto, that area should be full of high rise buildings
first ;)
Gorgeous scenery!
How are you doing the continuous panning camera movement?
dont you own a mouse?
I do. Thank you for your most helpful reply.
I am however interested in setting up an external camera to slowly move along a path through some scenery. Using the mouse to change where a camera is aiming is not what I was asking about.
Clay Caviness hold comma, full stop, up or down
Also hold shift whilst holding those keys to make it move faster. You also have to get into the external camera by pressing C first 🙂
Thanks! External camera was what I was actually looking for.
