Air Seychelles: Denis Island to Mah

[macchris]

A short domestic flight with Air Seychelles' Twin Otter from Denis Island to the main island Mahé.
There were a few clouds at 7,000ft but not too dramatic, only a smooth cross wind made the landing with the Twin Otter a little intersting :-). Some images are slightly edited, I hope you all still enjoy them!

After engine start up and take off clearance, we finally line up with the runway.

Increasing thrust and rolling down the 'runway'.

Climbing to 7,000ft and gear up...oh well, forget it! :-)

Taxiing back to the terminal after a smooth landing without using breaks at all, Twin Otter Pilots simply love long runways :P.

I hope you had nice flight!

best wishes,

Christian

I think thats LAGO's Twin otter, I used to have it, very fine aircraft indeed!

[macchris]

Thanks Tommy. Michael is right it's LAGO's Twin Otter, which unfortunately is payware, but I think worth the €uros.

The model and sounds are excellent in my opinion.

regards,

Chris
