This is a new one for me. MSFS 2020 showed this rainbow and it actually showed a complete half circle.
It was this AM on a FREQ flight from KDCA to KATL.
Here is after takeoff.
Thanks for viewing

Re: Over the Rainbow
When one got used to the "Great" flying simulation in FSX over FS9, they came out with P3D with the cloud shadows, That was "it". I still use it also BTW. Then MSFS2020 with inspiring graphics and scenery was another, "That was "it".
I was "flabbergasted" when I saw those rainbows. It probably doesn't take much to wow me now-a-days.
I cannot go to MSFS2024 as my flight computer doesn't meet the specs to run it. What a way to get one to spend more $$.
WLP
PS Edit; I realized, after the fact, I have a couple of addons for this SIM. Real Extreme weatherforce, Accuseasons and Atmosphere, which helped I am sure. But still in the simulator!
