VH-KDK Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I have just acquired a couple of 737-900s from the Simviation site today, they both work and look really good. The haves. 1. Leaving Juneau banking over Shelter Island in the Favourite Strait. 2. The Boeing 737-990ER(WL) is painted in an adaptation of Alaska Airline's new colour scheme celebrating 100 years of Boeing. The have nots 3. Out of Shenzhen this 737-97L is passing over Dongguan. 4. ZGGG Guangzhou can be seen under the tail. As I type this the 11 year old 737 is awaiting departure from Shanghai to Shenzhen ZH9816, I am sure you wanted to know that! If you have not noticed, the clue to the title is on the wingtips.

gumbypickett Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Gee KDK I'm going out on a limb here, could it be that one has winglets and the other doesn't? A little bit like how the 737-700 started out, then they were all fitted with them. Still, a nice set of shots. cheers Gumby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 You are on the ball Gumby so late in the evening. I don't think we have the 900 in our part of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhett Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Beautiful shots. I travel to China a lot but haven't yet ventured there in my sim. The scenery in China is spectacular (on a clear day). I haven't seen much addon scenery for China - is there any good stuff out there? It will be a while until we get OpenLC for Asia. I see that South America is up next. We'll have to wait decades for Africa ! ;-( Have also flown in and out of Guangzhou - nice to see. Where did you get the Alaska Livery from (is it PMDG)? Kind regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have several Chinese airports, VHHH(HK Taxi2Gate), VHHX(Hong Kong), ZPLJ, ZPDL, ZULS(Tibet) , ZJHK, ZSAM, ZGGG, VMMC(Macau), RCTP(Taiwan) all of which I am very happy with. I also have ZBNY and ZUNS which are both good but slightly lower quality than the others. The P3D Guangzhou is only the basic old airport but still OK for default. Hopefully someone will bring out ZGSZ soon and 5 major airports within 150km of each other would be interesting. I have quite a few Asian airports from Thailand to Japan and I was a little disappointed that OLC Asia had been put back but as my other area I have plenty of add on airports is the Caribbean and South America the news that OLC SA is next is almost as pleasing to me Hoping to make a trip to that part of the world next year, fingers crossed! The Alaska 739 is a freeware one from the Simviation site, a bit like the default 738 that is being a very basic plane to fly, just up my street! On 12/07/2016 at 7:16 PM, Bugdani said: Nice set !!!
