Moorabbin approach shots


Recommended Posts

We've had a few requests regarding Moorabbin, as some of our members here fly out of that airport. Here's a couple of shots from approach vectors. You'll notice all the roads are in place, but we probably need to fine tune the landclass for the housing. Easy to do, and post-release we'll be continuing the landclass updates anyway, so when you get your hands on FTX next week, just post feedback on the support forums and we can rectify the area for you ok?

john, you simply are the best, thanks for the shots, they look picture perfect, and they should with the amount of time and effort that you guys have put into making this dream a reality. and just a quicky, yeah i know, me whining again, but is for the beaches, is that the final setup, it just might be me, but it looks like the sand and water meet abruptly, like two edges are coming together, just in that third shot, like i said, it might just be me, but it looks a tad... unusual...

looking great though

I'd have to agree, was out there today, and other then the weird beaches and weird clipping on the golf courses (dunno if its the angle of the camera?) , which isn't much of a concern to me anyway, thats pretty much exactly what i saw from the window (well, after I turned around when my flight instructor pointed out I was flying away from moorabbin airport accidentally, but thats another story).

All I gotta do is fly near carrum and see if the field I used today for forced landings is there (I'll take my Garmin forerunner with me tomorrow, so I can get an exact location on google maps), because anyone who uses the same instructor as me probably uses it for practicing forced landings

But, despite only being 15 or so hours into flying, I certainly feel like with FTX, I could give flying to Essendon or Coldstream a try and actually be able to follow the scenary accurately.

Fantastic work guys. Any specific time on March 5th by the way?

Yeah, I probably will till at least my first solo (and probably PPL, but I'll slow down a bit when I go solo), because I already have at least 13 hours, and after learning circuits, its all gotten a bit easier now (and more manageable). So I probably will. And with FTX, I certainly think it will help me keep ahead of the lessons a bit.

Flying is more fun when you also do landing and stuff I guess, and you actually know what you are doing. Otherwise it can be a bit frustrating. So my last few lessons, I was having a lot more fun  ;D

i can't wait. i'm shaking already

As I'm new to the forum - I'm very curious about what is happening today!  Can someone explain please.

I looked and was hoping to find a thread that gave expected release dates, upgrades, patches etc - have I missed this somewhere?

Help please

A great place to see what's going on is to look at John Venema's message history:

You won't find release dates.  The closest they have is the next release of AU Gold is about mid May, hopefully sooner.

Hope this helps!
