The paper is devoted to the case-study of the Stokes geometry in the large for some concrete examples of WKB-type operators admitting infinitely many phases. The focus lies on virtual turning points and new Stokes curves emanating from them. Some computer-assisted study of the configuration of the steepest descent paths is employed to show that the introduction of new Stokes curves is reasonable and appropriate to obtain the Stokes geometry.
