Derek McAllan Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 G'day all, Bit of an eclectic mix here today, just a few shots taken during various flights made over the past week. All have had a bit of editing done - colour, brightness, etc. Hope you like 'em! On tow - a bit of soaring around Narromine, NSW. A nice hot day, only 4kts of wind... should be magnificent thermal conditions. Release! Flying free in the ASH-25. Wave goodbye to the towpilot! The ugly cloud shadows are generated by CumulusX, really wish you could turn them off. Hooking in to the first thermal, a 6m/s boomer that took me all the way to cloudbase. Takeoff from Port Macquarie in the JS41 Dash 8 on the deck at Rockhampton, doing the milk run from Mackay-Rocky-Brisbane. Taking off from Rockhampton. Let me know what you think! Cheers, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek McAllan Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Thanks guys! Nice shots! Who was the developer of that Dash 8? Frank, the Dash is from Majestic, it's pretty old and an FS9/FSX release. Good systems and flight model but the VC and even the 2D panels are truly awful by modern standards. They have a very good looking Dash-8 Q400 in the works currently. Cheers, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davepdx Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 All fine shots, but I really like the "Takeoff from Port Macquarie in the JS41". "the VC and even the 2D panels are truly awful by modern standards" I recently spent 34 shekels on an FSX airplane with a terrible VC, I know that feeling. I spent 4 years in the Navy and I learned many a choice phrase, that I applied to the situation while sending it to the trash bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
