Just an intro...

Recommended Posts

This flight is not more than a touristic intro, and OLC already shows what it´s got. Flying from Maputo, Mocambique.

I am sure the buildings are not placed like in reality. But for us foreigners the impression is like a cityscape, isn´t it?

The border of Mocambique to South Africa is just between the cities Ressano Garcia and Komatipoort. And this might be the port.

Malelane airport. The mixture of mountains and clouds is waiting for me...

... and, like so often, the default ATC claimed my destination airport would be "currently IFR". So I had to fly as per their intended pattern, downwind across the N4...

... to Matsulu village, ...

... into FAKN Kruger Mpumalanga airport. This airport had a critical elevation profile and was a total mess in plain P3D. Now in OLC and with the airport freeware from https://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx/southafrica.html it is usable.

You may already guess where the wealthy tourist flies next...

Thanks John. As I have just commented somewhere else, I am always a late mover. I enjoy what I have and wait for all major add-ons to be ported.

Thank you Olivier. I am looking for African liveries, but I thought the fire brigade could be on an international mission.

I somehow missed how you got from Victoria Falls to Maputo. Great flight and I have no idea where the wealthy tourist is going next. To Cape Town? To Joburg? I've read that FSDG is about to release Durban, too.

No problem that you missed my airbus flight to Maputo. Low & slow is THE way to go in the fantastic OLC.

I have read the planned release of some high quality airport in Africa with pleasure, too. But my next flight will go somehwere else... much closer.

At a loss for words about this set - great captures - one of my favourite aircraft as well!

Thank you for such a compliment, TT. The good old 337 is a nice tool for low&slow flying - and the scenery is just a pleasure!
