JSMR Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Firing up the PT6A-42's. Ready for an early morning flight from Cairns to Horn Island in the Torres Straight. The B200 KA is the aircraft of choice. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot22862%20copy_zpsx0ftdzyt.jpg Another beautiful day in paradise! http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot26598%20copy_zpsqadmhyaq.jpg North departure out of Cairns for a change. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot42391%20copy_zpsh4mz6giw.jpg North Queensland. Where the rainforest meets the reef! http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot47903%20copy_zps5htldhdy.jpg On the airway north. Warm day - ISA +20 so ITT rising quickly. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot54137%20copy_zpslinq8p1c.jpg And hitting the company climb/cruise ITT limit of 760. Torque back a little to stop going over the limit. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot58561%20copy_zpscixp8z1k.jpg Cruise altitude reached! Nice TAS of around 270 in my Raisbeck modded B200. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot89364%20copy_zpshwevt7jk.jpg Finally! The top of Australia and descent toward Horn Island. http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot195721%20copy_zpsyjysz1on.jpg And there IS the very northern point of Australia. Beautiful site! http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot203717%20copy_zpstxphw1d7.jpg Plenty of islands to distract from the task at hand! http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag376/Jonno_aus/B200/Screenshot214818%20copy_zps5iancowt.jpg https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSMR Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 and Kiwi tourists meet the wildlife http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/675047/crocodile-tourist-woman-australia Great shots, that isn't stock Queensland, surely? Yep, not cool to swim where crocs also swim. As for QLD in pics... WATER.......EVO Textures MOUNTAINS.....Aime Leclerq'a FSX freeware textures resized and renumbered painfully by myself to fit fs9. FIELDS......some of Aimes FSX textures. Maybe some GePro. Maybe some VOZ and EVO. made myself a dryer....for the most part....Oz textures. Painful and probably not worth it. VOZ or GePro fit great and WAY easier to install. EVO is great for other seasons here and rest of world of course. But look a little green for summer in Australia. CITES......VOZ I think. Maybe some default. Some GePro, some......lol Lol lol Why do I bother? Hours of tweaking, resizing, renumbering, fixing Ctd's, stack hash errors, textures that don't fit the area.....etc etc etc. Anyway, kinda good fun at times. :D https://fshub.io/airline/RUA/overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not for aesthetic reasons, realism all the way man, couldn't care less what it looks like, lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
