Smiffy Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 The second flight of our multiplayer jaunt from Bandon OR to the UK following the route used in Operation Bolero. This flight leaves KJAC with Sioux Falls our destination. We had a stop at KRCA to reboot the FSX server due to a flew glitches along the way. Another fun flight and we got to see Mt Rushmore. Enjoy the flight... http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/3Ekqp.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/nNY9.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/Snxbt.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/mdLMi.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/hHQDi.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/gdh0z.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/UFxRX.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/Vok7e.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/gxBDi.jpg http://www.fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/images/2015/01/17/DVUH9.jpg Last shots in the reply.

peer01 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Just how I like it: a formation of BIG props! Thanks for sharing! :cool::cool::pilot: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiffy Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks John, Av8tor and Jan. John, formation flying certainly focuses ones attention, hand flying a B-17 for 4ish hours in formation is somewhat exhausting, I couldn't imagine spending 8+ hours formation flying a B-17. Not to mention people shooting flack at you and fighters trying to make you day into a really bad one. Av8tor, the formation flying is possibly one the most enjoyable activities I've done in FSX, it certainly makes off-line flying some what bland. Jan, you can't beat big props, there only one thing better than big props, lots of big props :D :cool: :pilot: I used to fly jets, but I got fed up with them calling me a retard every time I tried to land...:pilot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
