VH-KDK Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Well I have finally worked out how to use Imgur and here is the approach into LOWI Previously:- 1. No commentary necessary as most of you are familiar with LOWI. 2. 3. I suppose it was about now that I realised that I had not lined up my GPS flight plan with the runway so press "z" and fly in by hand. 4. The Inn River and the outskirts of Innsbrucke. 5. 6. 7. 8. The moment of truth and........ 9. .........wait for it............brace!!!!!! 10. My bestist ever landing. Nice and smooth also right on the centre line. It that the end of the flight, who knows.

Ah ha, Landon. Nothing like a bit of suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat. I hope it wasn't too much of an anti climax for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a great idea to fly over the orbx scenery across Europe in the way that you did . That's a great looking freeware plane too. Some of the external modelling on freeware is very good.

I still think that even OLC is a wonderful representation of the world. It was not long ago we were amazed by Germany and now there is the Netherlands to marvel at. I am getting quite a collection of freeware airliners, I like them because they are simple to fly and the quality is mostly excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 What a wonderful landing Martyn! I can't decide which one I like best so I like them all. Glad you had your best ever landing, always satisfying to do that, it makes it all worth it. But the Inn river, and Innsbruck, could that maybe translate to Inn's Brook? Asking for a friend.

Thanks Jack, I am glad you liked them. The landing was very pleasing as it always is when it comes off so well, this one was the best. I have just run bruck through the translator and it comes up as bridge. Always interesting things to be found out on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
