Jack Sawyer Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Orbx's new Australian airport. It's cool, I love it. My new F-737 fighter! YTYA - Shout out to Bruce for the ANZ repaint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradB Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 At first I thought you did a Harrison Ford and landed on a taxiway . Nope , it was the runway ...... pretty narrow for your “fighter” Jack I would say . Great shots and piloting BTW !! . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I am sure the folks at Tyabb will now be calling for commercial ops from their local airport. Exciting flying Jack and an even more impressive landing on that narrow strip. A wonderful addition isn't it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it’s real nice and can’t wait to make some normal flights here. But boy do I wish there were more releases soon, I’d buy ‘em all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlosqr Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Nice shots Jack I was not aware of this new airport thanks for sowing it or should I say for showing it off?

Those camera angles have always fascinated me, it goes way back to when NASA had cameras all over the plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingleaf Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Holy cow Batman. That is some flying Jack. Nice airport indeed. Also your flying skills leave no time for sipping adult flavored beverages. Mebby I'll introduce them to the Mule Team. Well, I had a brief meeting and that was totally rejected. Well I tried.

Rodger Pettichord Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Hey Jack. Great fighter take-off and air-work Also loved the strafing runs -- everything but the exploding locomotive. And nice landing, although disturbingly normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryM Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Tested in a way that could have only been Jack...... some great shots. I'm not sure I'd want to do a cross wind landing in the 737 there though...... there wasn't a lot of room to spare on that runway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
