Antarctica

[bernd1151]

Fokker by Orbx,

British Antarctic Rothera Station by Orbx partner Aerosoft

 

 

Two large additional tanks allow us to stay up in the air for much longer. And a healthy dose of extra supplies is a must in these waters

 

Luckily the plane’s door is closed, otherwise I wouldn’t know, what they could be up to

Nice set Bernd . I was looking at that scenery only yesterday. Some very orderly queuing by the penguins waiting to board! 

[Jack Sawyer]

My jaw is on the floor, what a sim and what a nice set of shots Bernd!  Were the penguins there or part of the plane?  My wife's favorite animal, penguins.

[Captain Lars]

Fantastic shots, Bernd! Truly a marvellous landscape. Is the ice static or depends its extension on the season?

[Stillwater]

Yes, yes, yes. These are amazing! And these huge supply tanks on bord would make Hilda happy!

BTW the most eco-friendly way to enjoy Antarctica, flight simming should be a "must-do" for all those who consider travelling there.

I'm happy you like them, Lars. Some of the ice is static and some floats around, depending on the season. Also the Polarstern is part of the package and she cruises the area, but as she is also an icebreaker, I guess she does that all the time

Many thanks, Gerold. Most certainly a very eco-friendly way to explore this beautiful part of the world. And as this sim evolves further, for many other places in the world too. Question: do you want to do your upcoming NZ tour the virtual way only? Just kidding

Terrific set Bernd.  When I see penguins I can't stop laughing, they are so funny, absolutely great, I love penguins.

Both ways are booked, though I am more confident the virtual version will run absolutely smooth as scheduled: As LH and Swiss have just announced equipment changes (and massive prolongation of the block times, why?), we now have a transfer time in HKG of 45 minutes.

Brilliant set Bernd and those Penguins are a terrific addition.

I like the plane too with all the extra details inside.

Given the wattage that simming sucks out of the power grid, I'd say better don't tell ze Baerbock.
