howardthepilot1999 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Posted April 19, 2015 Hadn't flown a multi in a few months... Definitely a good feeling to be back in a more powerful aircraft. Don't go into IMC like what I did yesterday... 1 Quote

Clear sky morning. First leg of the day and shortest one (372 nm). Great view on the Rhine river during initial climb on MODRU9T departure out of runway 23L. Passing over cloudy London Descending on the ILS runway 09 into Bristol. Can you spot the runway? Bristol's runway isn't a very long one. Entering the apron via last turnoff (taxiway Alpha). Loading containers and fuel. Next flight will take approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete.

WOTAN1Z SID. Looks like the weather over eastern Europe is gloomy. 85 minutes into the flight. Crossing the border between Germany and Poland. IMC prevail during approach to Lublin... ... but we make it to the ground safely. Our next flight will take us just over 400 nautical miles south of here.

Taking advantage of the tailwind it's only 50 minutes before we reach our Top of Descend (TOD). Amazing quality of Constanta's scenery (freeware!). You can get it from DAI-Media (www.dai-media.com).

niebieski Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 Thanks for your kind words, guys On a side note: those screenshots could have been better, but all of the above 5 flights were online (VATSIM), real-time, real weather (Noaa plugin, accurate winds aloft!) so i couldn't pause the sim or change the weather to get more satisfying results. I wonder what are the next destinations for the DHL 757 for today?Montpellier (LFMT) in the southern France?Or maybe Dublin (EIDW), the largest airport in Ireland? I really like the possibilities X-Plane brings us today (with good addons, that is). 1 Quote

captainamerican Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 First Flight in 2 weeks. Return leg from LHR to JFK with Aerosofts New EGLL and Real Terra Haze Terminal 5 in the Back of this massive 77W. Preparing for Departure on VATSIM Shortly after takeoff, enjoying these beautiful clouds! Look at that morning Sun! Cruising at FL360 at a speed of .87 Mach After a long 7 Hours and 40 Minutes, NY_APP cleared me to land on 04R at JFK. VATSIM flights are fun when the controllers are online. I was lucky to have atc when I left Heathrow and Arrived at JFK. Surely will fly back to London next week, the new Scenery is a must buy!! 6 Quote
