Down the California coast with the Navy (and what we did there)

So, the first part of a jaunt in the rather splendid Virtavia F3H Demon. Left San Diego and headed down the coast, planning to travel down Baja, cut across inland, and head back up into So-Cal over KPSP way. I really love the level of detail in SCA - if you've got a big screen take a look at these full size, they're all 4k images.

Not actually stopping here, just thought I'd make a noise and maybe break a few windows

Time for a sandwich and a shower, then the real bad behaviour will be on the next leg!

All the time maintaining radio silence I suppose, exactly my style. Superb screen shots.

I prefer to imagine this has an eight-track rather than a radio!  Led Zep flat out all the way!

Beautiful pictures.  Well done Andy.  By the way, my eyes couldn't quite read what it said, but what is your flight planner called?

Hi Jim, it's a freebie called FSTrampFree. I only use it as a moving map so couldn't say what it's actually capable of. I know this free version is described as 'limited' by the vendor but it's fine for my purposes.

First rate tour Andy.

Some excellent misty mountain scenery in this set.

Don't know if the 8 track would put up with the virbration but Led Zep is definitely the way to go.
