Jack Sawyer Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 My kind of testing, PMDG 747-8, short fuel, no pax or cargo. It was a cool flight, all hand flown, only thing is I didn't get a chance to see if the ILS worked. Is this airport worth it? Heck yeah, you Orbx guys should be proud, I like this area a lot! Sorry for so many and sorry for my favorite livery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I was expecting a bridge... but the rocket start compensates, Jack! 15 minutes ago, Jack Sawyer said: 747-8, short fuel, no pax Seems like you were already prepared for Corona-mode flying.

As for corona flying, at least here they’re flying a lot of flights, and I see a LOT of cargo planes too. This too shall pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dario Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Amazing shots, Jack! I really enjoy this Jackie way of testing sceneries If I was a passenger, though, after takeoff I would think the destination was the moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerribleT Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 WOW what a great way to introduce a new scenery!

In order to do that I would have had to be at a higher altitude then dive then pull up, don't ask me how I know Yes sir, full stop, those reversers are very powerful.

bvdboomen Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Really nice flying Jack but I bet you may repair the new runway. #4 is most likely a tail scratcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Ben, didn’t drag the tail. It would be really cool if Orbx made some kind of mechanic where you’d have a damaged runway and have to repair it.
