[ATTACH=CONFIG]215813[/ATTACH] Good job pulling it out!!! I never flew outside the plane until I started flight simming. It's surely not as easy as it looks!! As I'm sure you've already discovered Mae Ling and Mama San now a lot of good places to eat outside the US. ENJOY!! Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

peer01 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I was hoping to see SAWH in your sim David, it's a nice spot from where you can go to Antarctica, or some desolate Islands like the Malvinas / Falklands. I'll try to find a pic from my freeware SAWH, really nice, but the surrounding mountains are bad. Thanks for this leg! :):):) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAVIDSTRAKA Posted February 24, 2020 Author Share Posted February 24, 2020 David, here's the freeware version of SAWH I use :) [ATTACH=CONFIG]215838[/ATTACH] Looks pretty nice. As you could tell I was in some nasty weather. I did take some time and rent a C172 while I was there to ckeckout the area. I have those shots to do yet. Is that the Orbx freeware airport?

CRJ_simpilot Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) Can we get a soundtrack up in here? :D Been around the world at least five times now thus far. Been damn near everywhere. Name it and I've probably been there. Wait till you cross the pacific. That's a long haul! It's not so bad from island to island, but after Hawaii you may have to cheat with the fuel top off. I had to do that with the Lear 45 which was the first plane I took around the world. Since then I've just been using my customized F-22 Raptor flying at an unrealistic cruise speed of mach 2.35 @ FL500 averaging about 500 miles a day. Right now I'm on another Latin American tour and I'm in Guatemala currently. I came from the Caribbean and went to Columbia via Grenada. When I first started doing this I would use Google Street View to see what the place looked like that I landed at. What I found out was that damn near everywhere in the world there is graffiti on the walls. LOL Even in bum nowhere South America. Though, I don't recall if there was graffiti in Norway or not. I don't recall seeing any there. One thing is for sure, there's practically a McDonalds everywhere from London to Moscow to Perth. Edited February 25, 2020 by CRJ_simpilot OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the video did show any airplanes! ;) Never heard of ATC before but the scenery is good :cool: Sounds like you have definitely been a lot of places! Yes the Pacific flights are a haul. I did one from Detroit to Hong Kong. Started it before I went to bed and let it chase the darkness all night. Looking forward to trying some island hopping. The nice thing, I've got my planes set for unlimited fuel. So I cheat a bit.
