bernd1151 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 This Boeing 247 is one of the most demanding planes I have had for a long time. Absolutely fascinating and as we will see towards the end, plenty of things that will go wrong if you don’t follow procedures. Do we have GPS or autopilot? Forget it, but I can offer you fuses that you need to switch or replace, if needed. Near Mount Aspiring Nat. Park Above Lake Hawea Lake Pukaki Lower the gear, please Gear has been lowered. Lock the gear, please Lock the gear? Lock the gear!! What’s that? You fool didn’t lock the gear, did you? 4 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a more optimistic note, the roll-phase after touch down was very short 18 hours ago, jean marc said: a wonderful tour Bernd and epic narrative ... and well quite far from home for canadian pilots maybe lost Thanks a lot, Jean Marc.

Once you get used to fly this thing it is actually quite fun, give or take the odd three fatal mistakes you seem to do all the time 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zkdos Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Loverly sequence and great pics bernd1151. I noticed you have a double up of runway centreline markings at NZMF which commonly happens if you have both blinn's incredible freeware Milford Sound Airport installed alongside the Orbx Mesh. Have a look for a folder called "z_default-nzmf" within your Community Folder and remove it to clear the conflict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
