The termals occurs only under the inversion line !!! How could a glider pilot cannot say such a nonsense .... and the story about cumulus with flat tops is very funny too )) Never saw that before ....

... I think that you have just learned what you know about inversion on the link that you posted )))

Anyway, I d'dn't need a link for noobs to learn about inversion (I perfectly know what it is) but I just wanted to say that FSX is much better in the cloud modeling than the BOB.

Oh man you are a hard head.
Think what you think my friend it is of no importance to the truth.
And it is even better to not think but know.
And please relearn your meteo.

Happy landings

Ok, just to clear up some widespread misconceptions.

The default FSX clouds are volumetric and 3D.

Redwan, the video you posted is not about default FSX clouds. It's about modified, non-default clouds that are part of a 3rd party payware add-on (real environment extreme). These are NOT advanced computer generated 3d clouds, they are photos of real clouds imported into the game.

I don't know why they even compare the two but the again I have a slight hatred for Microsoft sims lol
