Thanks! and yes, it is truly awesome. Here's another one in my second ride of choice over a totally overcast sky somewhere in the proximity of Seattle. No photoshopping of course.

What version of REX are you using because the one I have my clouds always seem to low. They are still nice but they never seem high enough and I don't know if it's down to the REX I am using.

I have REX Essentials, I got the free upgrade since I had bought REX 2 with Overdrive before. I haven't set any particular height on the clouds, don't think it's possible(?). The cloud blanket you are seeing is at approx. 17.000 feet or something, pretty high, the plane is at approx. 25.000 feet. I guess it depends a little bit on how high above sea level your take-off point is. If I take off from a strip in the Alps then of course the cloud base will just be on top of my head , just a thought.

Well this thread answered my question on existing Clod weather. ( I was looking for an answer to the arcade mode icing and turbulance.)

I had been flying mostly the bf-110 and had not had many issues getting through the clouds. But with the bombers working I have been flying the Ju-88 and have been literally dropped out of the sky on two occasions due to turbulence/icing trying to get through fluffy light colored clouds at 1500m. I had to stop struggling with them at normal climb speed and fly just below them at 300-310 then make a quick max vertical climb through them or wait for a gap.

I like the effects they are just overdone, it will be nice to see different clouds and weather at some point.

I too use addon weather in FSX Active Sky Evolution and REX for textures and the A2A B377 is my favorite. Loved doing the chicago, anchorage,tokyo route having to micro manage fuel to get there. Also the A2A B17 is great, both with Accusim of course.
