Captain Coffee Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 A piece of Mahler's 5th accompanies a trip from TAP to ONB in Carenado's Ol' Reliable - C208B Cargomaster. Take off is not nearly as graceful as the music...I'm pretty sure we winged the fence at most ...but I think the music and I pulled it together for a fairly dramatic finale. Overfly peeks at Kosipi(KSP) and Woitape(WTP) along the way. Cheers, hope you enjoy. ~~_/) Coff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlindblo Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 You are right ...... the pilot might be a little crazy!! Any pilot that would fly with a steel fence post sticking out of his left wing might be suspect. He made up for it though on the landing ... . Nice setdown. Minimum airspeed. Loved every minute of it. By the way .... I don't think Center can read your transponder in PNG that deep into the mountains! Although I could be wrong. Keep em' coming ..... I'm a fan of any bush pilot. You might take out those red flying things I keep seeing in the distant air though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Coffee Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hah...the 5150 was for my amusement. I never tutned the thing on. Im pretty sure the high wing cleared the fence, but I probably gave it a crack with my gear. Cheers Coff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Gosh you make it look easy. I've not successfully landed at almost all of them. But I'm gonna keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck yes keep trying!!! Success in a Flight Sim is 99% perserverance, and 1% perspiration (because it's a sim...you can't really die...) and if Crash Detection is off, No sweat at all. Bounce, go around, try again, bounce, go around, try again. Have some fun music on while doing it....it's the best. I spent about two hours that way one Saturday going around and around a tiny dirt strip on a nasty slope...Hilltop in Idaho I think it was called...forget the airport designation, but its a hardcore 45?degree slope with a tiny ridge top to stop on...and a few piper cubs parked up top. Took about an hour before I managed to put a C-185 on the ridge in a legit landing...but the landings got easier after that in the next hour...and frankly every landing anywhere after that has been easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
