Bruce R Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 A real world B717 flight taken from Flightaware - QJE1543; Huugo H62 Admar Q78 Oltin W180 Tesat H65 Razzi. ORBX/Australia, Brisbane & Canberra together with Active Sky. P3DV4.2. The weather didn't come to the party with showing off Australia scenery but them the breaks. Off we go on Runway 19 on the Huugo SID Weather's looking good - but it doesn't last About 120 miles north of Sydney we flew over this 'muck' Surprisingly as we flew over Sydney itself it cleared - but not for long. Sydney airport and the waypoint 'Tesat' Descending down for Runway 35 at Canberra on the Razzi STAR Runway in sight Arrived ...and parked up. I see Trump is in town. Bruce R Edit: The last two shots, for some reason, have gotten out of order but 'you get the picture'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Always interesting to fly an actual real world route and see how good one can stick to it in the flight simming world Looks like you handled the job nicely, and despite the weather. Great bunch of shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much appreciated. 1 hour ago, Ziggy said: Just picked up the 717 myself, don’t know how to fly it yet Greg, the best way to learn is do a search in You Tube. There are a lot of B717 tutorials there. Some good, some excellent. Cheers Bruce R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Bruce R You bet, I’ve watched Jordan Kings Tutorial so far, before that I just tried to wing it, I thought it was going to be like the 737, to me it’s very much different, but I do enjoy the challenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Nice Bruce, I like the pano. I need to spend more time in the 717, soon. And I didn't know Air Force One was there today, I thought President Trump was on his way back to D.C. I always like seeing Air Force One at this airport it's a nice touch.

Aussie123 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Welcome to Canberra Bruce! ( 2'C at the moment, raining today 12'C) Great selection of shots. The 717 is beautiful and sleek. Nice reflections. I use YSCB as my home base with my B737 on scenario start up. The well known Airforce Two aircraft seems to regularly leave CBR at around 4:00PM local so I have often queued up behind it on R35. I've recently purchased GSX (as I see you also have). Having a ball setting up the parking and preferred service providers for all of the Orbx airports. Cheers, Aussie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( 2'C at the moment, raining today 12'C) I was actually in your neck of the woods recently. I spent 10 days at Bowral in April. It was hot! Most days were high 20's low 30's (centigrade that is). We had another 10 days in Brisbane with similar temps before flying direct Brisbane/Dunedin. Bit of a shock getting off the plane at midnight to just about freezing temps. Apparently Bowral's temps plummeted to below 10 after we left. Bruce R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
