FSRobert Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 FTX arrived and that was my call to depart Changi for Kingford Smith. The flight was through the night. Once I climbed to CRZ I went off to bed leaving a very nice Moon Shadow in my thoughts to sleep by. I woke up to a Moon Shadow as well...gotta love it when that happens. The sad part is I missed the FSX dawn which always proves to be a beautiful sight to behold. Had a bit of fun on the approach. RC4 vertored me to RWY 25 at Kingsford Smith, so I accepted it with full convidence the 380-800 was going to stop before running off the RWY. I can think IRL the 380-800 would never be vectored to RWY 25, but this FS and I felt cocky. Cleared for TO and rolling at Changi. Rotating this Whale. Dark... Right after this shot I went to bed. awoke to this...I loved it! FEX clouds and sky...IMHO best on the net at the moment. Down wind to RWY25 and it looks ever so short. The Sun is by Xgraphics. Gear Down and auto brake set to MAX!!!! The ultimate good morning wake call for great people of Sydney with this Beast flying over. Hard Landing, but the gear held. Yes, the brakes are very effective and came to taxi speed in good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
