Stillwater Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 For the upcoming CeBit fair in Hanover Switzerland will be the official partner country. Swiss airlines uses this occasion for type-rating flights for their new 777, which are currently going into service. However, Orbx pilots are quicker than that, we can do these flights already now... (weather set to March, for sure). Taking off in Hanover, with Aerosoft´s grass a littlie lighter than Orbx´s: Wunstorf AB: One might see the Mittellandkanal, Weser- and Wiehengebirge and the city of Minden here: Not a typical cabin for a short distance flight. And probably not the right occasion for a sleep. Mannheim, Ludwigshafen, Heidelberg and the Neckar river melting with the Rhine. ZRH approach. The ND doesn´t give a too clear orientation. Mountain view, ... ... better trust the instruments, ... ... here we come. Seems this bird doesn´t fit to the Europe terminal and gets an outside position. That is the view out of the old Lufthansa lounge, for the frequent fliers amongst you. Ready for the next pilot to be trained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers John I seem to have trouble in posting this weekend, first I put this post into the wrong category, now the shots are mixed up: #11 (here we come) is the takeoff in Hanover and should be #1... where you could see the Aerosoft scenery with lighter grass than Orbx. I knew you would enjoy biz class as you always do, though for this short trip the benefit is little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to replicate this flight at home Hi Al, this is the PMDG 777. If you remember what you learn during the tutorial flight from the manual, you have the necessary standard procedures. And then you can learn more... 1 hour ago, Ziggy said: A wonderful set of shots!! Thank you, Greg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
