jpreou Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Flight plan courtesy of Plan-G Manapouri (NZMO) to Gore (NZGC) via... - Princhester Rd Airstrip, Mt Hamilton - the windfarm at White Hill - Winton - Te Tipua - MatauraGore (NZGC) Plan the flight, fly the plan! Waiting for a Cessna to depart... ...and we're away... (bear with me, I got a few shots here!) ... and we're leaving...! Missed a photo at the first waypoint, so here's the turn over the windfarm at White Hill ...tracking the river... Turning overhead Winton Turning over Mataura to run left downwind into Gore Gore township which I will overfly and head back to the airfield ...the view from the left seat while making the turn... Aaaah'm comin' in! ...or not... the approach was too high and too fast, so I had to go around and try again... ...better... ...got down nicely and taxi back in... ...and we're done...

jpreou Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 Smashing set these Jeff. Great post Jeff , quality shots and a flight plan to use . Thanks for showing again why NZSI is one of the best places to fly in Orbx world . Really enjoyed following this flight Jeff... Excellent set Jeff. Like the DC-3 and the scenery. Thanks Guys. I thought I would include the PlanG shot show those who do not know NZ can get a feel for the flight and then the shots will show the journey. I was watching "NZ From Above" on TV the other day and it's a great series for showing off the NZ scenery; the great thing is, I can go "ooh, that's interesting, and then re-create the flight in FSX/NZSI. So I have one or two other flight plans to run through. The only downside is that often the TV show will show something interesting but not tell you *exactly* where it is; only within a general area (and often a fairly large area at that); I guess that just adds to the interest of trying to find it! Its fun (all I need now is the time, and peace & quiet from the two babies; unlikely!) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
