I used to have a caravan in the Mach loop, we were driving down to Barmouth through it and we didn’t expect it, but the red arrows went over. Highlight of the 10 years we had it.

Great flashback of when I was a flight line engineer at RAF Valley in the early 90s.

Well after watching that (along with your other videos) and constantly failing whilst trying to emulate that route, it indeed does confirm that I was no loss to the Air Force as a Pilot and was much better suited to a career in Stores 😁 I did quite a few back seat flights whilst at Valley many many years ago (when the sky seemed full of T1's ) but I wouldn't even begin to assume that the Flight model is accurate but is certainly looks the part. However, living in that area, I can say that the mapping most certainly is, and I can accurately point out and recognize virtually all the areas and features whilst I fly around certainly above a height above 250' height (lowish spec graphics card) below 250' is usually when I suffer an unplanned landing. Brilliant and informative videos, please Keep them coming.👍👍

The noise they made screaming down towards the lake together is unbelievable, the valley itself shakes.

Thank you for a great video. I have now subscribed. My first tour was RAF Valley back in 1975. I flew in what was LFA10 in a Gnat on several weather checks. Brawdy would do LFA 7, although I was fortunate to fly the Mach Loop in the rear seat of a Gnat before leaving Valley. I remember being surprised at looking up and seeing people above us on the side of a hill. I went on to complete 38 years retiring as a Sqn Ldr, I loved the service and more importantly the people, like all air traffic controllers I was always a wannabe fast jet pilot but realised I didn’t have the capacity and would have probably killed myself trying! The beauty of MSFS is we get to try without the expense and the risk. Great video, I look forward to learning from your videos.

The lighting in Microsobo's WorldSimulation is designed with HDR in mind, meaning the differences between dark and bright are pretty wide, even if HDR isn't active. The mountain you mentioned that appeared to be black is only a harsh shadow, which considering the contrast between bright sunshine and the steep hill and the sun angle these days should be pretty realistic. If it appears black you have to adjust the brightness/contrast of your monitor if you don't see any details as it isn't simulated as dark. Therefore some newer games ask you for a simple form of screen calibration to get the brightness/contrast to levels that are appropriate to display the game correctly. Just adjust Brightness/contrast/gamma and if your panel isn't the cheapest TN version ... the dark mountains of MachLoop will be gone. 😉💙 Thanks for your service!

You made me curious, i went for a round in the Mach Loop. Seems as the bing imagery itself containing these really dark shadows, yet the dark sides of the hills are not completely black and you can see some structure and height profile under it. Maybe this imagery has been taken at spring or autumn or at least too late at the evening when shadows are intense. Unfortunately the data from Bing is far from perfect and sometimes outdated, maybe that is something we have to live with to some degree as they don't have just one set of world maps, they are using up to 21 layers of different LOD's, several sets of maps with different resolution. Pretty sure in regions like the norwegion fjords you will find this more often. Hopefully these issues will be solved over time either through better maps or with artifical reforestation... 💙
