Here is my flight over the Amazon.
When you use real slow settings for the flyover, your cache will be filled with lots of details.
Then use faster flyover settings and start the tour again.

Is there anywat of doing a flyover like this without the tour slowing down and stopping at each point?

I want to do a continuous flyover.

Just go to GE Tools - Option , then click the Control tab and set the Tour Pause value to zero. Enjoy!

<ADDED> OK, I guess I lied. I tried it, and while it does reduce the time you stand still to almost nothing, you continue to slow down to zero velocity and then fly on again at every point.

Also, has anyone figured out how to prevent the "bunny hop" on longer legs? Thanks!

This flight seeing tour simulation will fly you from Anchorage International Airport over the Knik Arm of the Cook Inlet, up the Eagle River Valley (quiet as you go over my house, please) and over Eagle Glacier, then south through the Turnagain Arm of the Cook Inlet, over Kenai Lake and the Harding Ice Field, and up Resurrection Bay to land at Seward Municipal Airport.

Make sure your terrain factor is 1 or you will crash. Enjoy the flight!

Sorry about the noise from my Goat as I passed by, but that's the nature of the beast

This flightseeing tour will take you from Anchorage Int'l Airport up the Susitna River and past Lake Chelatna to Mt. Foraker and Mt. McKinnley (also known as Denali), then land in Talkeetna.

Goat Herder;

Thanks for passing by our way. Goats are native to our area, and they aren't much louder than the Beavers, Geese and Widgeons that we get so many of, too. Hope you enjoyed the tour. (Try number two if you have time, and go see the big mountain!) Hey, if you like herding a goat, you should try taming the Mad Dog (MD-11) some time!

Red,

#2 looks great too!

I'm sure the beasts I have are quite louder that the native goats. Click on my signature to see what I mean.

Goatherder;

I guessed that from your avatar, so the Beaver, Goose and Widgeon I refered to were the amphibs by those names, not the critters. They are all very common up here.

You should pop on up and see us sometime, what with having the wings and the floats and all... you'd fit right in!

OK, here's one more:

Welcome to Canyon de Chelly (pronounced SHAY) National Monument in Arizona - the OTHER grand canyon. Over 1000 feet deep in some areas, this canyon was home to cliff dwelling native Americans hundreds of years ago, and the rich bottom land still provides protected grazing and farming land for those still residing in the canyon. Guided and unguided walking tours of the ruins are available. The canyon area is low res, but the elevations are dramatic. I'd recommend you follow the link below to look at real photos once you've flown through.

For Park information see http://www.nps.gov/cach/
