Very nice indeed, Landon. Renton is for me the most amazing scenery development for MSFS and it shows, what we can expect in the future.

Very nice, Gerold and quite some interesting comments too. From own experience, Rotorua is not only famous for its hot springs, but, depending on the wind direction, also for its smell (like rotten eggs) from sulphur

Very nice shots. Can it be that the two boats that are actually moving, are from the Henrik Nielsen AI ship traffic.

Jack, Robert Randazzo from PMDG announced a few days ago that the 737-700 will be out probably by the end of this month. So lets keep our fingers crossed

Great shots of the Mriya, Graeme and a sad end to it. I recently read that one of the pilots had warned management already a week earlier to get her out to Leipzig, where their other planes are parked presently.

This Boeing 247 is one of the most demanding planes I have had for a long time. Absolutely fascinating and as we will see towards the end, plenty of things that will go wrong if you don’t follow procedures.
Do we have GPS or autopilot? Forget it, but I can offer you fuses that you need to switch or replace, if needed.

Lock the gear, please

Superb shots, my friend !!

Glad to see it's working for you too, T. Now we need a couple of new liveries for the old lady.

Mighty fine flight, Gerold. I hope you made it safely back in one piece (from the Alps, I mean
)

Hahaha, you are absolutely right, Gerold ! Flying this old lady is hard work, so he offered to get me a stiff one

I really did not know this ! How did you notice it ?
When the website was launched last year, I was curious what the .to stands for. Then I found out, it means the website is registered in Tonga

Many thanks, Wayne. The bridge goes from Gibraltar to the coast of Morocco, but only here in MSFS. In reality, there is none

Single engine Fokkers will, as I write, be being dragged from the back of hangars by the owners who never got off the ground, to take another shot at getting in the air.
I wonder if Orbx did a secret update & gave her a few more horses?
As to the bridge too far?, I suspect you've been on the Borkum Riff again
TTM
Hahaha, Borkum Riff is good, but I prefer Cuban cigars
I also suspect that Orbx did an upgrade to its first release, which is fine. Now the single engine version takes off with more ease and can reach a top speed of some 85 knots, but I wouldn't pick her for crossing the Alps. But this, I suspect, was the same with the rl plane, so no worries.

for sure you can fly this Staggerwing upto Tonga or PNG or Fiji
Hahaha, I didn't mean that, Jean Marc. With Tonga I meant our usual download site "flightsim.to", which is registered in Tonga

Wow, buddy!! I did know this one is available. Not that just a few hours ago I bought another half-a-dozen Orbx sceneries. Oh well, here we go again

First reviews of this plane weren‘t too favorable, so I thought, I’ll pass this one. But as I’m a sucker for vintage planes, yesterday I caved in and bought it. After a few flights I have to admit I really like it, also the single engine version. Admittedly, it isn’t the easiest plane to fly, but that is at least for me more than half of the fun.
Here we are parked with the single engine KLM version at the Gibraltar airport. I plan to cross the Straight of Gibraltar in order to visit the new bridge that has been constructed. You didn’t know? Well, I read about it on the internet, so it must be true.
At around 50 knots we are up in the air
Trick is to keep her level right after take-off, so she can build up enough speed to gain higher altitudes further on
And here is the new bridge. Quite a massive undertaking
And surprise, surprise, no ship overtook us.

Very nice flight and you gave it (again) an impressive paint, Jean Marc!! I assume we can pick it up not too far from Vanuatu, in Tonga, again

Landon
Thank you very much for your comment, Landon. I also thought that the Nieuport will be a good fit for this flight
16 hours ago, lifejogger said:Excellent shots of the Nile, enjoyed looking at them. Where did you get this scenery?
Many thanks, John. The scenery is MSFS default
16 hours ago, Stillwater said:Amazing shots and light, Bernd.
We also consider the 1970s adaptations of the Poirots the best, with an outstanding number of great actors, and style.
Thank you very much, Gerold. They were great actors for sure.

Many thanks Landon for helping me keeping a "positive memory"
Thanks a lot, John
Many thanks, Gerold, But I'm not so sure, whether I like my landing a lot. On a more optimistic note, the roll-phase after touch down was very short
Thanks a lot, Jean Marc. Yeah, very far from home
You bet, John and thanks for commenting
Once you get used to fly this thing it is actually quite fun, give or take the odd three fatal mistakes you seem to do all the time
