<<< I.C.C.A.O.L World Tour - Leg 76 (VCBI - WMKK) >>> (Let's go East!)

[CycoFlo]

I wish you a great Sunday my Friends (or at least what's left of it)! Time for me to bring out another Set of my ongoing Tour around the World! This was the first Flight that nearly went into an Disaster as I accidently (and without noticing) pitched the Side Rudder to the Right by hitting the Key on the Keyboard causing the AP to fly with hard banking and loss of Speed, luckily I noticed very fast and pitched back to Zero before anything serious happened... So all well again for this Part, now enjoy:

#1 We're preparing for our Flight on Colombo Apron with many different Company Birds around!



#2 As we taxi out we spot an old Antonov Freighter between the Airbuses, think that was Jan there!



#3 The Runway lays ahead very empty, no waiting Time for Takeoff today!



#4 Our Wings bend up as we lift into the Sky again!



#5 Gear goes in, goodbye Colombo, now we've got about 3 Hours to go!



#6 Turning towards East with the Ocean below us!



#7 Another Turn gets us on our Route and over Sri Lankan Island!



#8 And there's the Coast of Sri Lanka, cruising Altitude almost reached now!

Brilliant Florian! I love that long wingspan of the A330.

I've always liked the A330 and the last 7 shots of the 2nd set are perfect. Very enjoyable part of the world tour.
