Tim Harris Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Invercargill to Nelson in the old B377, we had half tanks and about 55 pax, left just after dawn Right after take-off Climbing... Still climbing Climbing but now building speed entering scrub country Reached cruise at last, set 40-MP and sit back Snow in the distance Turned up the temp in the cockpit, was served a coffee and sticky-bun at this point Over the mountains Beginning the descent oh so gradually Yikes Nelson in sight!!! Heading out over sea to bleed more speed and altitude Keeping an eye on the runway Coaxing the wheels down Flaps set Now dont spill the customers drinks..... ease it around, feather touch, keeping an eye on the G meter On final!! And yes landed OK on the numbers, too busy to press V key, I floated a little and in pushing it down we did give the old girl a little bump, but all good eh Hope you enjoyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan2 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I wonder what its like flying over all your own work ..hmmm...."could of done more there . That bit is perfect " ..etc lol . Cant image the amount of work in it all . Great job Tim. I thought modeling the B377 was a couragous move by A2A but we are all, for sure, better off for it . Outstanding model .Cheers.

Tim Harris Posted April 1, 2012 Author Share Posted April 1, 2012 I wonder what its like flying over all your own work ..hmmm...."could of done more there . That bit is perfect " ..etc lol Good question actually, I find it really hard right after having worked on something, as it brings back too many memories of the long days and nights cramped up annotating and modeling, though I must admit I find it even harder to fly over other companies scenery, call me fussy perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
