VH-KDK Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Orbx Product: YBBN Brisbane. Orbx Partner Product: AU Scene YBNA Ballina. Australia Update by Microsoft with work by Orbx A simple plane for a simple flyer! In my small 2020 hangar I hadn't got a plane to cover larger distances higher and faster. So I bought this to add an extra dimension to my attempts at flying. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. It looks good from up there which is why I splashed out on this plane. Cheap and quite nasty but they are working on it! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Lovely shots, Martyn. And it seems to be a good choice of plane for longer distances, as it has found its way from Alaska to Queensland! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks good from this quick first flight but time is tight at the moment to look into trying to fly it properly. A long way from from Alaska indeed, it followed me home! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think many of us have dabbled in the weed and have our stories. Not happy up a ladder but anything between a Kit Fox and an A380 I can be up there all day! 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Excellent Martyn. How accurate are the cockpit avionics? Asking for a friend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Nice shots Martyn . If you want to try another airliner - the stock A320 is ok and lots of liveries for it, including Australian! More complex is the 'study level' FlyByWire A32NX ( very high quality freeware). BTW, I had a look, it's a short flight of about 7,400 miles to return your plane to Alaska 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about the accuracy but I don't think it would be suitable for your friend! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the stock 320 has Ansett and Rex, two particular favourites of mine. Alaskan said that as I was a good customer of theirs I can keep the plane. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingleaf Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Great shots indeed Martyn. At first when I read "Getting High" I thought "wow Martyn has "flashbacks" like T-Bone has most of the time.. My bad. Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Looks like a very nice long haul flight from Alaska to Australia Martyn, how was the time portal that you used? Great bunch of images here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
