Jack Sawyer Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 1) Too many shots 2) No SID 3) Wrong Livery. Sorry guys but I like what I like when I like it as far as liveries go. 4) Flying too low 5) Flying too fast 6) Under the bridge at the Hoover Dam 7) Reckless abandon 8) No STAR 9) A do not care attitude I just wanted to look at the scenery and I have to say if you're on the fence about this airport, it's well worth it, very beautiful area, Vegas is within viewing distance, excellent frames, and just a delight. @olderndirt Sorry, I'm not precisely on the centerline.

Ken Hall Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I knew it, all the time I was working on this I was thinking, Jack is gonna have a field day with this Dam Bridge, pun intended.

Scott Harmes Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Great shots Jack! Very impressive. I really like that Lauda livery too. Hey it's a sim, so we can do what we want, right?. I was flying an Easyjet 737-700 out of Montreal today, a long way from home . Heck, I didn't enter anything in to my FMC either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry if I came across too strong, was in a foul mood, this home prison is getting on my nerves. At least I tested negative, I had several symptoms but it was very mild.

Stillwater Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I can´t see any relevant violation of rules, Jack: - you are using Orbx scenery in every picture - you are using a very good (but inop) airline. Service was their success! In addition, you have created a new manouvre, the "Diver". Good work - and fantastic shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dario Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Jack, what a gorgeous set of shots! Splendid indeed!

carlosqr Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 When I was about to test it I wondered if it could take a 737 too!! so I could check it faster Very nice shots Jack Looks like a nice product, I'll be flying it shortly Cheers Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don’t know about takeoffs but it handles landings well. I also didn’t look to see if it has an ILS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian St Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Nice shots Jack. We stumbled across Boulder City by accident, it's a great little town with cold beer after a long drive across the desert. I see the scenery even depicts the Nevada Railway museum at the bottom/centre of #9 which is an interesting walk around. In those little industrial units to the left is where they make those fancy pens for NASA that write upside down and underwater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s interesting, I was wondering what that building was. And funny about those NASA pens, I remember a joke that we spent a million dollars on developing these but the Russians had a better answer, they used pencils.
