Stillwater Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Using the Carenado 850 in p3d failed two times, when I tried to do a flight from Christchurch to Auckland. Frustrated I was and went over to other planes. But now I collected all my remaining mental strength and gave her another chance: Out of Launceston (in the look of the early 2000s)... ... over the Northeast coast... ... towards Wilsons Prom. NP. Passing Moorabbin... ... and with two other city airports in sight. Oh well, with the CBD, too. About to land... Wow, there are some bigger jets than mine around here... Be careful, it sucks! 550 people deboarding from the A380, ready to hurry to immigration. Just 4 people deboarding here. We could be a bit faster at the bar....! PS: Yessss, this time the 850 was successful with no CTD! Great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Awesome Gerold, glad you made it safely with no CTD's! Looks like it was a nice smooth flight, and I did not notice any sightings or near misses of the Sawyer Effect....no one knows where it will pop up next....the shading and colors of your captures have a nice, almost vintage look to them.

Thanks, Landon. This plane is complicated enough not to show the Sawyer Effect on my computer, but indeed you don´t know where it appears next. 3 hours ago, paulb said: Excellent flight Gerold!

VH-KDK Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Isn't it great when something finally works but I bet it weighed heavily on your mind the whole flight. Reminds me of the old FSX days when an interesting flight was suddenly and prematurely terminated. Some wonderful views of an area I have flown over recently but at a much lower level. In your view of the 2 city airports, just by the nose is Thomastown, where I first lived when I came to Oz in '81. We used to get a great view of the planes on their way to rwy 27 at YMML.

Here we can see again the great memory effects flight simming can cause. I love that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 That was great Gerold! I like that 380. But I'm curious as to why it CTD'd a few times then worked. What changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the second part you are totally right: I do not remember any change, so I am curious, too ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
