Air Seychelles: Denis Island to Mah

**macchris** · 07-22-2003, 01:42 PM

A short domestic flight with Air Seychelles' Twin Otter from Denis Island to the main island Mah�.
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.

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,

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

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
