KMEM - EHAM Meljet B777 (26 pictures !!)

[shooter2001]

Changed things around (again)...now a new cloud and water package were installed and completely re-shuffled my AI traffic.

Am quite happy with the results, so do I really need FS2004 ??

Enjoy !!

Hey Menno

Those are awesome again, as always. Nice to see some ATC / AI bugs in it; makes it a lot of fun to see / read your picture story!

And yes, on my PC Tasman Pacific also is taking over Schiphol :)! Very nice traffic once again!

One question... where did you get that very nice cabin view for the meljet, as show on your first picture?

Cheers

:-eek those shots are excellent!

Which clouds are those?? are they from FSSky2002? and if so, which set are they?

[shooter2001]

The coulds are the RealityXP cloud pack downloaded from Avsim. the zip is called "rxpclouds.zip"

Rogier, the cabin is standard from Meljet and can be seen using the active camera.

And yes....ATC screwed up big time, but indeed sometimes that makes the flight a bit more of a challenge...

Thanks for your nice comments...

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Jul-02-03 AT 06:21PM (EDT)[/font][p]Cool Pics, but you need to work on your flying skills :-lol

-You dont need full flaps for takeoff, even with ruwnay obstruction

-Hold short lines are there for a reason, dont pull out while an aircraft is on final

-You dont need full flaps to climb, your not flying that slow

-flaps still partially down in flight

-Why so much back pressure while turning? Rudder will take care of that

- >On final, need a bit more speed here

Wrong. If you need more speed, dont use full flaps, and dont add power. While flying slow with flaps, thrust controls altitude, attitude controls speed. If i was flying on that I would be writing my will.

- Four reds, your dead.

-Lights are off, and you touched on three wheels

- >Besides some crazy AI the flight was just excellent...

I think your AI was fine, you were in that Luxors flight path. He will see you in court.
