This is a trip you normally don’t do too often in your life, maybe once or twice. The beauty is, here in our sim, we can do it as often as we want.
We have left Cairns on a Green Island Cat to bring us to Green Island. Green Island is a beautiful, 6000-year old coral cay located on the Great Barrier Reef and just over an hour boat ride from Cairns.
Once on Green Island we don’t have too much time for snorkeling, as our private yacht is already under steam so to speak to bring us to Hamilton Island.
Once on Hamilton Island we have a few days to relax and cruise in creature comfort the area, before we board a plane that will bring us to another destination, called Reefworld. It is located in Hardy Reef, some 40nm offshore and only a short hop from Hamilton Island
This ship looks more like a war ship, but is in reality a privately owned explorer-type luxury yacht
A Royal Tongan plane you won't see every day in Australian waters

Great shots, Carlos and I fully agree with you, we need a good mesh for this part of the world. Do you by any chance happen to know, who could provide such an add-on?

Thanks a lot Landon. The Corsair is a challenge, that is why I like it

Many thanks, Paul, me too. Give me a Spitty, Bf109 or a Mustang and I'm a happy camper

Well Pete, some great looking images here. Lots of color depth! But, how in the world did you end up out in that grass field? I see runway and then the next thing, off the range you go.

MSFS default largely
The Milviz Corsair can be obtained from the Orbx store
Let's check this place out, before I attempt to land this thing
Ok, now comes the tricky part
Conclusion: there are a lot of nice airstrips here in PNG (and the Indonesian site of Papua), but with a few exceptions, they all lack Ken's and Tim's magic touch!

Would you have the time to walk me through how to do it? If not I’ll understand.
Jack, the best way to learn it is from watching it on YT. Here is a link to a couple of tutorials:

Excellent shots Bernd and I didn’t this this was possible. I’d love to have my beloved L-39 ported as the one MS sells has very poor reviews and a modern cockpit.
Thanks buddy. I remeber the L-39. I think I had her as freeware model. Someone had converted her from FS9 to FSX. But the VC was so so, that is why I haven't converted her yet to MSFS

Great to see a Vulcan fly Bernd!
. Nice set and map - well done!
Thanks Paul, I like that Vulcan a lot. I have all three, the Vulcan, Victor and Valiant flying in MSFS
3 hours ago, Stillwater said:Great flight and scenery, Bernd. No big surprise you did not land in Lukla.
That is good news...
... and this is really good news. Gives me hope, that we can (at least) continue to use the more simple planes from FSX/P3D.
Many thanks, Gerold. It's bit of trial and error. Usually freeware planes convert better than payware ones, which seem to have some sort of code installed that prevents us from using them otherwise. Sometimes the gauges won't work, then I use the VC of a default MSFS plane. For example when I fly the huge An-124 or 225, I use a 747 VC, but with bluish colors to make it more authentic. So, there are quite a few ways around to make them work. And it's fun to do so. By now I think I have converted over 50 or 60 FSX/P3D planes. From a simple Bi-plane to the 747-200

Thanks a lot, Landon. I'm happy that you like them. It was really fun to fly there in such a plane.

Orbx Himalaya mesh
FSX Vulcan that I ported over to MSFS
South of Shimla. Those poor tea planters will get a heart attack
Most of the gauges work. At 5,500 ft and Mach 0.95. I just love it
South of the Indo-Chinese border and close to the Nanda Devi Nat. Park
The Pisang Peak
In the distance you can see Mount Everest
Closing in on Nuptse and Lhotse
Blasting past Lukla
On final
It's a default airport, so in this remote location don't expect too much
I have to admit, it was a blast. I'll have to repeat this flight, no matter what India's surveillance will tell me

Many thanks, Paul. I love doing occasional trips with one of the Cunard and White Star ships available for MSFS![:) :)](//content.invisioncic.com/t324365/emoticons/default_smile.png)
Hahaha, thanks, buddy
Thanks a lot, Mikee
Many thanks, Gerold. Maybe I expressed it wrongly. Such trips I still love to do. I was more referring to traveling on large private yachts. So far I have done that only once. Too expensive![:D :D](//content.invisioncic.com/t324365/emoticons/default_biggrin.png)
Thank you very much for commenting, Landon
Thank you kindly
Many thanks, John
Thanks a lot, Adam, it can be really fun to explore a small part of this world by boat
