Around Bournemouth. FTX ENG P3Dv3.0


VH-KDK

Recommended Posts

Installed FTX ENG into P3Dv3.0 and time to see how it works.

First flight is from EGHH Bournemouth. I lived in Bournemouth from 1966-75 and in those days it was a great town.

Spent time fishing from the beaches and piers with regular trips to the airport with binoculars, VHF radio and note book.

Only wish I had taken a camera.

Over Wessex Way with Queen's Park Golf Course.

Boscombe and Bournemouth piers jut into the bay with Poole Harbour in the background.

The Isle of Wight dead ahead.

Over Hengistbury Head and Christchurch Harbour with Christchurch on the right.

At The Needles with Hurst Spit to the left.

Don't look Ethel. Below is the nudie beach at Sandbanks. Brownsea Island and Sandbanks are above the Lockheed.

Swanage now has an excellent preserved railway home to a West Country Class Pacific similar to the one you see steaming around FTX Southampton.

All seems to run well although heavy on the frames still. Will have to experiment more.

Forgot last night but a big, no a huge thanks to the team at ORBX for providing the conversion to V3.0 free of charge.

I am still amazed when I read the occasional post from a disgruntled customer about the cost of things.

Splendid choice these. :smile: Even nicer to fly where you've been in reality.
