Stunning flight with gorgeous scenery and brilliant to hear you nerding out, as a fellow nerd I appreciate it! Alaska truly is one of the most beautiful places in the world and you did it justice with the aerial tour! Great video Rachael
It really is!
Such a gorgeous scenery and geography is so cool.
I'm loving your videos. Entertaining and I learn a grate deal. Keep up the good work.
Glad to hear it!
Been loving the Orbx Alaska Mesh! The Kenai Fjords are beautiful, can't wait to mosey on up to Denali after watching your vid
Fantasic Video, Keep up the great Work, Thanks for all the in Flight Learnings!
Stunning flight !. Loved your geographical insight regarding the glaciers. Orbx have done a good job. Many thanks.
Thanks :) It really is a lovely place, and I had fun sharing what I know :)
Great flight AvAngle, Such awesome graphics here, even with the few not so amazing areas, but damn for the most part it’s gorgeous looking.
After I get my hanger loaded out with the planes on my wishlist, I’ll definitely be looking to get this very nine offering from Obex!
Cheers
"Geography with AvAngel"? I'm here for it! The glacier part was my favorite bit of the video.
This video was the doggy-danglers! The scenery was epic, can’t wait to recreate this flight myself. Really enjoyed the commentary about the geography of the glaciers. Your best video to date IMHO!
Thanks!
AvAngelski ! Got excited at the moment of Ruski accent and the mention of Svetlana ! Wow that scenery is amazing and loved the landing ! As always a great production Comrade 😀👍🙏🏻✈️👨✈️❤️
Thank you! 😃
Thanks for the geology lesson! ))
Great one! Both you and Jeff turn this as you said like a boat! 😆 It does have a large capacity and four blades.
What a terrific flight! Thank you very much for that, and the education on glaciers!! I learned something today. Oh I totally agree with you regarding no script. Long time live musician here, you only get one shot on stage to do it right. I have also found that carries over to my youtube. Oh and C337, YES PLEASE! Cannot wait for that one!
Cheers!!
Thank you! and you're right, once you're used to doing it that way its natural.
337 i will be using to start my trans continental trip :D speed and nice ship to enjoy
Also downloaded the Kantisha scenery on your recommendation and initially it didn’t display correctly either. Had to download the extra objects library package as recommended by the publisher, and instead of just dropping that folder into the community folder- open it up and find another sub folder inside and drop that one into the community folder instead. Works a treat after that!
Thanks for the tip!
Love flying the 208B. I’m intimidated by its POH, but luckily P Gatcomb has two great vids on flying and landing it.
You made a good point. If the terrain was a little more true, this flight sim could be an interesting geology teaching aid. Wow 11 the flare on the river. Sockeyes have made river sections look red, occasionally.
I was yelling 'FUEL TANKS!!!!!' when you were trying to start the Caravan. Before I finally figured it out, I was completely lost trying to figure out how to start it. Heck, sometimes I still forget to turn them on and I'm like 'WTF, why won't this plane start????'. Hehehe...
XD
The mesh isn't for me - if it changed it a bit more I'd go in. But great video, beautifully delivered as always 👍🏻
so you're saying the mesh is meh? lol
Been following you in rp now I get to follow in this great sim in which I fly as well
Welcome aboard!
Very nice. You're video is exactly why I am busting my butt to learn the Garmin avionics.
Lindo voo. Um abraço do Brasil
A wonderful flight through gorgeous scenery, you reminded me of my former Head of Department and Professor of Geology, he famously hated what he termed "Unnecessary Jargon''' which he would always mutter from beneath his moustache whenever he had to teach us a new term which he did not approve of. He wrote a small mineralogy book and under Quartz the entry said "see Silica" and when you went to Silica it read "see Quartz" - such was his humour and hatred of more than one word for the same thing. But nice lateral and terminal moraines and roches moutonnees.
Ah a cultured mind with knowledge of ice!
There's a mod for the Caravan that improves turning among other things, available on flight.to
I keep forgetting how bad the ground handling is in that plane - you can barely make a taxiway turnoff at 15kts ;)
AvAngel, I love your videos and commentary. However, the gushing over the Orbx mesh was a bit too much for me, considering there is almost no difference from default scenery. (as seen in other videos comparing the two)
I really think it looks very different, the mesh yes, not the 'texture' the actual 3d detial was far nicer imo, and all elevation weirdnesses with water are gone. Plus I've never flown this range before (the mountains themselves)
Ohh cessna caravan interesting rachel but dont worry i understand
You on your super busy schedule on arp
But to learn about turbo prop start up or others they need more time to practice
But on cessna caravan other people they forgot they thought the fuel is on bottom or on a avianoics but they forgot the fuel is in top at the pilot head
Love the background info, very fascinating. Was wondering where you get your bits of knowledge from.
Sometimes my education, sometimes research :)
@@AvAngel you sound like a jack of all trades, much respect 👍🏻
I'm certainly a mistress of none!
I still use FSX when I want to glide with real weather supplied by Active Sky 2016 and also to fly many of the old aircraft which aren't yet available with MSFS............................
Beautiful scenery, too my eyes, these higher res meshes make a big difference, not sure why some cant see the change... oh well its great we all have this huge amount of choice in packages. Ive never been much of a turbo prop guy, but Ive kind of fallen for the 208. Been flying alot around Papua New Guinea following videos posted by Missionary Bush Pilot. I will be sure to do this trip In Alaska. Incredible area to fly in. And who said MSFS2020 cant do atmospheric's...just look at that haze...:)
The plane he flies, the Quest Kodiak is coming soon too btw :D I will hopefully have a review for it soon. Turboprops aren't my favourite, but for higher altitude stuff and mountain flying 'quick' and safe... its really useful.
Even the Orbx said there isn't much difference in mesh quality. The main benefit is reduced LOD morphing. I only tried with slow plane so far, but didn't notice any terrain pop-up. Also Orbx stated they will improve mesh resolution in future updates.
that is good to know.
@@LukiR33 I guess it depends on the original source data. The USA probably already had good data. Down here in NZ the orbx mesh has made a noticeable difference. Even though its only a 10m mesh the default mesh was 30m of bigger.
What about a Checklist?
Milviz claims both the Beaver and the Otter will drop in 2022. I believe they said radial and turbo for each! I hope that is right. Turbo Otter on skis to base camp anyone? :)
Heard that too and can’t wait!
Great video but I'm not too sure I like the rows of trees in front of the plane seen here @ 9:08. Is that a MSFS issue? I don't think I've seen that before.
Think that's a distance issue at higher lattitudes... *shrug* not sure.
Where can we find a nice photograph of AvAngel? Twin Otter and now the KODIAK is on the way/?????? YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
hmm, where indeed ;)
Enjoyed that flight. Being from N.Ireland I have plenty of scenery too. p.s. if you think " dog's danglers",is rude, you should live around my area!😉
I gotta be clean mouthed on youtube or they get nasty :D
@@AvAngel True, but at least we can enjoy the SIM. Keep safe.
Glaciers forming, flowing, and doing their thing... I understand. I also understand that big chunks formed those lakes we see. However, what I do NOT understand is...
How did the fish get in there? Did they sprout from the ground? Did eagles grab them from somewhere then blunder their grasp and a pregnant fish fell from the sky? Maybe a bear caught a pregnant fish and said to himself, nahhh. I didn't want to eat you anyway. Then toss it into a lake???
Changing water levels, rivers connecting lakes etc
I downloaded this mesh and I keep getting terrible popping where the default mesh pops over this new mesh. Running on ultra with a 3090.
Weird, the default shouldn't be loading tbh...
@@AvAngel yeah I'll keep messing with settings but thank you for the video.
What do you use for head tracking?
I don’t, I use the hat switch system
I wonder why is a mesh needed? I csnt imagine making it more beautiful.
Improves accuracy of terrain with higher resolution data, corrects mistakes in elevation, common product for flightsim
@@AvAngel ah oke, thanks. Your review's are awesome btw!
Thank you 😀
Are the aircraft at the airport active AI or static scenery?
Static mostly with a number being AI.
It's obvious you don't read from a script Av Angel as you are a natural.
Mesh was nice too.
I'm leaning towards wanting to hear your voice again really soon.
And after a cold one at that bar I'd be leaning towards hearing the next Video.
Do you dance.
I do try my best thanks Paul :)
I really appreciate the kind words.... dancing though... I do not! four left feet!
@@AvAngel When we Dance "Sting" Just for you Rachael.
Keep the Videos natural for me.
my ONLY complaint about MSFS is the lack of proper trainer variety. The VAST majority of GA is steam gauge c172 or Cherokee 140/180. And there are ZERO here. That's embarrassing for MS.
Not true, stock sure, though you do have the robin dr400 152 and 172 in higher versions and there are dozens of addon ga types
I’m sorry, as much as I love your “live’’ video style, I don’t understand why you would pick the C 208 for this video if you don’t like turboprops, don’t know how to start it and don’t like and can’t use the G1000. ???
Honestly... the performance is why. There aren't a ton of aircaft that will do that trip, over that terrain in that time... I wanted to keep the video to a reasonable length without cutting tons. Needs must eh?
Looks like Northern Sky's Talkeetna, not the freeware?
I'm pretty sure it is the freeware one... don't recall buying one for here... im confus.
@@AvAngel Hi, AvAngel! I'm prety sure this is a payware))) I'm a developer of this PATK. Nice video BTW
Is it? I must have thought i had the freeware version, I'm dumb... looked back at my simmarket orders and it was there XD So many scenery items and aircraft I get lost. Sorry for mislabeling your work!
Edited description!
How much difference is there between the Grand Caravan and the Kodiak? I'll probably end up getting the Kodiak just because I love the Missionary Bush Pilot's videos so much!
Kodiak is a bit smaller and more nimble, better low speed performance and shorter landing.
