Jack Sawyer Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Couldn't find the "Capital" so I flew Carlos's route he suggested. MSFS Orbx's SA Mesh SAWH Malvinas Argentinas Intl to SCBI Pampa Guamaco Was pleasantly surprised to see the plane "spawn" on snow. Thanks to the brilliant Garmin 3000 GPS it has a nice airport map showing taxiways and runways. Departure. Capital idea to go boldly into the wilderness. Snow shrouded peaks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean marc Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Hi Jack ! Great shots ... despite the snow !

It's been a while since I last saw your excellent posts with all the photos and the stories. Carlos made me a nice suggested route for four separate flights and I've flown one so far and boy is it scenic, such beauty there. As for liveries, well, I don't have those planes, and I've never been a big fan of the proper livery for the country I'm flying in. I just pick something I like and fly it. Sometimes if I happen to have the proper livery or registry I'll do it but for the most part for some reason I don't do it. No offense to those who like the proper liveries in the respective countries, I just do things differently. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do people herd them and use them for wool or food? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
