The day when a Concorde chased Solar eclipse

In 1973 a Concorde prototype chased a total solar eclipse for scientific research for about 75 minutes. I recreated this same flight over Africa in Aerofly fs Global. But the eclipse and contrails is edited using Autodesk sketchbook..

Sun textures still looking horrible since the update even though they cost no performance at all… I’ve reported the issue but it got deleted after a few weeks.

Do you mean the awful 'robot eyes'? They can be turned off in PC but mobile has to put up with it.

Yes but no. The robot eyes were fine before the 789 was added. Like texture wise they are low resolution now and they weren’t before.
