Jack Sawyer Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Last night I bought the Alabeo Diamond Star and Orbx Queenstown. So I thought I test her out by flying to Milford. Would have been in the soup all the way so I shut off the weather for some much needed Vitamin O. (Orbx). The 750 is screaming at me to pull up! Now back to the PNW in the 195. Just wanted to test out my two new toys. Poor credit card's smoking now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 1) Lots of rain in your Queenstown. But this makes the hills green & beautiful! 2) A crazy approach, directly descending from the pass! Can´t believe this works without speedbrakes...!

Thanks Gerold, yeah, I was in clouds a lot so I shut it off. But that descent into Milford was something else. I did it though and made a nice landing. This is a very cool plane. 1 hour ago, BradB said: Very smart buying choices Jack , your wife must have liked the scenery and your new bird . Cheers John Thanks John!

VH-KDK Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Top flight Jack and some beautiful shots along the way. When I saw the weather at Queenstown I wondered how your flight was going to progress. A bit tricky landing at Milford Sound from that direction but life wasn't meant to be easy was it!

Thanks Martyn! Yeah, the weather deteriorated rapidly so I shut it off, I wanted to see the scenery. It sure was tricky but fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
