Not easy, will start with a country guess of Canada?
-
Yes Larry does have Calgary under his name.
Well done to all who got it correct (everyone basically).
Sadly didn’t keep everyone busy all weekend, Larry are you able to make the next posting?
-
I think you 2 are correct.
That didn’t take long did it.
Thanks for not naming the airport directly, leaves it open for others to join in over the weekend if they want.
Will name airport officially on Sunday night.

@paulk - Thanks for you trying to help - however I found that this problem is basic in T/Master sicks - Airbus and T16000
which I also had. Multiple YT videos had many examples of how to correct but way too complicated in my 89 Y/O mind
or even patience
Sooh I took the easy path - and bought a new Logitech T56👏
Anybody want 2 free broken T/Masters sticks = postage only
Hi Sent me a photo via PM of the joysticks I may take one and have a go repairing. Happy to pay P+P and more if required.

The price is right, I will give it a try.
Have you fixed the joystick yet?

I was going to submit a shot of McMurdo at night in a blizzard, but realized it would be too easy for this bunch. Oh well.
I don’t think Antarctica would have been an obvious one.
You got anything else?

You got it Paul. "Not a clue" looks like a slight underestimation...
BTW: The photos were taken many years before the scenery was released. We have to grab our cameras whereever we travel, the scenery developers follow!
You know the world, Wolfgang...
Honestly, never seen or heard of it until Orbx released it last week, so it was a wild guess for me.
Will try upload something soon, anyone else feel free to jump in.
PS I have the Sydney Cityscape and Sydney airport add-on, would like this also but worry my old PC may be slowed down by another Sydney add on. Anyone tried it?

Lay everything out piece by piece as you disconnect it and put it in order.
Adjust the rudder wires, then piece it back together in the opposite way to which you took it apart.
If you are anything like me you will have a few bits left over 😁

John - just to confirm its the Airbus Thrust Master TCA Side Stick I have, so think its the same as yours.
See link below, for the fix I carried out - no issues ever since:

Good Luck.

Not sure if this is 100% related but I have the Airbus joystick with twist rudder.
It developed a rudder twitch. I searched and found a YouTube video for the fix.
Basically the wiring was stretched too tight in the joystick for the rudder, I had to open you the joystick and release some of the wiring so it wasn’t as tight for the rudder. It was an instant fix.
Sorry, but I can’t remember the video link for the fix, suggest you Google search it.
Fingers crossed for you and let me know how you get on.

Happy for you to jump in.
Not a clue, but I know Orbx released Sydney Seaplanes base recently so I will take a guess at that.

Opposite to Vancouver City, the other(northern) city-part of Nth Vancouver at the other side of the river.
Yes Lonsdale Quay, I am familiar with North Vancouver. It’s a great water bus trip across from one side of Vancouver to the other, especially if a Harbour Air Float plane passes near by.

Yes - well done it is indeed Toronto Billy Bishop airport.
Congrats to 'boetie' who actually PM me the correct answer last night.
You guys are too good, I actually didn't upload a photo of the airport and you still got it 😀
Perhaps in future, we should try guess an airport by photos of its local surrounding's ? 😃

Interesting answer but sadly no.
PS which Lonsdale are you referring to out of interest.

Sorry William 😃
I think you may know the answer, fell free to PM me to check and therefore leave open for others to guess for a while.

Hi
Thanks I enjoyed this one, it kept me busy. I have the Brussels add-on - its fantastic.
For Info: the worlds Magnetic Field changes over an 11 year cycle. Most aircraft IRS systems have a Magnetic Variation table stored in them for the world (this can also be updated via a software upload), known as the MAGVAR table. Airport runway identifications are rounded to the nearest 10' depending on the local Magnetic Variation for the airfield.
Eg: Brussels Runway 200 official magnetic heading would be anything between 195 to 204' However, due yearly magnetic variation changes, the runway must now be in the 185 to 194' area and the runway will have been re-categorized as 190. This is common for all airfields around the world. (obviously local magnetic variation is much worse towards the poles and that's why aircraft switch from Magnetic to True North navigation whilst over the polar regions).
Anyway enough of the science lets see if I can find a new photo for you all.

I am not sure if the runway in question is now not 01 / 19? As the world’s MAGVAR alters over so many years.
If that’s the case I would like a further guess of Brussels?

The large building is very confusing.
BAe146-300 I was thinking Lufthansa and a German airport?
However, 2 airports that have a runway 20 are Paris - Orly, and Barcelona, although, picture doesn't look like either.
I'm not sure of the date your photo was taken and I don't think any major European carriers use the BAe-146 any more, so it could be an old Orly or Barcelona???
Orbx airports visited in real life - a rolling story

Is that a HarbourAir aircraft (yellow and white) if so going with Whistler, Alta Lake, but unsure which Orbx add on that is included in. Unless it’s a Mesh add-on.
