DHC-6 3W5 (Washington) to 7S3 (Oregon)

My fuel planning was a little off on this flight, got lucky and ran out of fuel after landing while taxing to the fuel pumps.  Had to do a go around twice (1st time around Cherokee taking off, 2nd time just way too high) - 7S3 was a new airport for me but discovered a rock quarry.

 

Flew over the dreaded VAS killing and frame rate unfriendly KSEA.  Ran into some other AI traffic enroute care of UT2.  Winds were moderate to calm for most of the flight.

Here are https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bw0Q-fAfEZwyekZZM0Y0ZnBYMTQ/view?usp=sharing the GoFlight files I created for use with GIT and specific to the TwinOtter (a switch or two missing, but got most of it, includes MCP-Pro).

 

Cheers, Rob.

Very nice ... actually, Excellent.  You've spent some time to know this a/c.  Liked the stopping just short of the fuel pumps.   :lol:  :lol:   Watched the whole thing .... nicely integrated with informational screens. Did not see any effects of a frame slowdown either ....

Impressed Robert ... I think this was a longest one I've done ... and a skipped some of the other pre-take engine/feather checks.


 


Both Orbx airports are very well integrated into Orbx region.


 


The Twin Otter is incredibly versatile aircraft, land, sea, snow, and can even cruise as high as FL260 @ 160-170 kts GS ... only needs 650 ft of runway for takeoff at sea level 0 winds.


 


Cheers, Rob.
