Stillwater Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I had to set the weather to Summer for a better inspection of the old Hanseatic city of Visby. There is a lot of history around this - previously most important - trade city: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visby Some Eurofighters, ready to start with a very short taxiway towards the 21. The old city, with the still-intact city wall. For those who are not willing to arrive by plane. And the grass runway, for GA use - or for Jack with his trusty 747. It is impressive to fly here in Winter, but this sunshine flight was also great to see some of the features! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Nice summer views Gerold! I don’t think there’s enough grass for my 747 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Lars Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Very nice. I have never seen the city wall! Just the shape of it from high altitude testing. This is a Saab Gripen, not a Eurofighter / Typhoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If even you consider the grass runway too short, there would not be a way to make it. But perhaps I´ll find a bridge for you?! 1 minute ago, Captain Lars said: Very nice.

Some times low altitude testing pays off, Lars! 3 minutes ago, Captain Lars said: This is a Saab Gripen, not a Eurofighter / Typhoon. That is even better, and perfectly suited! Seems I did not look carefully enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is summer but I will get them to water it for you so it grows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andiflyit Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Beautiful set Gerold, this scenery is very nice for summer flights. #1 is a good shot of the perfect terminal buildings. And this scenery has very good framerates with every setting and aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look at my recent flights and you see what the real weather is like up there. 12 hours ago, adambar said: Summer is a good thing Gerold, super shots!
