Private Jet down to Key West

Like most people I had some issues pop up after sim update 5 so I haven't done a full flight in a few weeks. Thankfully Asobo has released a few hot fixes which has gotten the sim back to the way it was before. Also, with the recent performance improvements in SU5 I was able to increase some of the graphics sliders and not lose FPS, so things look a little better for me than they have in the past.

Now let's get to the flight! A few weeks ago I took the Longitude into Monmouth County Airport, and now it's time to continue that journey as we head out for the 2:30 early morning flight to Key West.

It doesn't take long for the Longitude to get up and go, so before we know it we're in the air and heading south

We've leveled off at our cruise altitude of 43,000 over the Rehoboth Beach/Ocean City, Maryland area. Now it's time to enjoy some coffee and the views as we fly at Mach .84 down the east coast

A little over two hours after departing Monmouth County we are descending into Key West as the Florida Keys come into view off to our left

Thank you! It was a great flight!

Very excellent shots! (I've actually driven to Key West a few times in RL)

Thanks! I've done the drive from Miami to Key West once and it was pretty cool. I'll fly the next time though so I can see it from the air.

Saw it from the cockpit in the '60s. I'll bet it's a lot more grown up now.
