Well, here's 22.

 

This is from KGPI, Glacier Park to KDDA, Idaho Falls.  Flew what all approiate SID's and STAR's.

 

I just flew it but set it to last August and with AS4 it has historical weather so this was the actual weather on that day.

 

Could have done an autoland but I disconnected and hand landed it.  What a cool and beautiful flight this was!

The SID called for overflying the airport.

Despite having SODE installed this gate didn't work.

Wow !  Fabulous shots, Jack !  Very sharp, clear and lush !  

 

I recently loaded up a F-4, set the season to  'summer' , and flew around the Nantucket region and into Martha's Vineyard (eventually) ......... decided on the more scenic route as everything was so lush and green.  Lots of Orbx eye candy to be had in the summer months, that's for sure, lol !  :)

I know what you mean Jack and I can see it your pics. :) A very beautiful flight full of wonderful views. Crisp indeed and so full of detail. Glad you decided to hand land! 

Thanks Lars, it helps a lot to be flying over a very nice Orbx region.  Yeah, I could have done and autoland but decided to land it by hand.  I think most of them in the future will be hand landings.

PS - Jack you are a screen shot taking machine my friend . :):)

Thanks John.  It's not unusual to take 100 shots in a flight then struggle to find the ones I want to post and then delete the rest.

NIce, Jack. I liked the flight but also spent some pleasurable time going over the ramp shots at the start. Thanks!

Thanks Rodger, I did the same, I like all the detail at these Orbx airports, there's a lot of cool stuff to see, in any season actually.

Thanks MZ!  That's also a wonderfully detailed area too, I love that route because I used to live in New England.  And, it's where I flew a lot of flights way back when in the very old sims.  Always to Martha's Vineyard practicing VOR navigation.

Isn´t it great when a flight works & looks so well? We have come a good way... as you did with your flying skills.

Thanks Gerold, I think once someone understands how to program the FMS everything else is easy.  And with the Boeing jets it all translates pretty well from jet to jet.
