niebieski Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I had a very satysfying cross country trip today. No GPS, FMC, VOR or ADF. Only Google Earth, compass, clock and an accusimmed plane that can break 1st leg: Cessnock - Coffs Harbour Flying along the coastline Passing overhead an airfield enroute (can't remember which one that was) [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/146vfrtrip2.png Mighty Thunderbird [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/214vfrtrip3.png Taxing at Coffs after landing (did you notice GA plane in the top left corner?) [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/564vfrtrip4.png I'm starting to like PeopleFlow more and more [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/910vfrtrip5.png 2nd leg: Coffs Harbour - Caloundra Shortly after takeoff from Coffs [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/927vfrtrip6.png Crusing ...

The closer i was to Brisbane, the more distracted i became by various landmarks [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/346vfrtrip8.png Abeam YBBN [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/589vfrtrip9.png Second approach to Caloundra. I bounced hard on first attempt and decided to go around. Quite a short runway for my P-47 landing skills [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/579vfrtrip10.png Safely on the tarmac [img width=1120 height=700]http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshots/images/606vfrtrip11.png Overall, lots of fun flying VFR over ORBX land. I think i'll continue to the north to Cairns via Hervey Bay, Bundaberg and some OZX fields. Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
