[I've flown the JF/AH DC-3/C-47 on occasions, but do not recall flying the JF/AH C-46, though I have owned it for a while. Here is a most remarkable story of one (and same) C46 Commando, I came across today, in two distinct airline colors...] As aviation enthusiasts, we're lucky to find WWII-era (iconic) airplanes preserved in a museum, and the Curtiss C-46 is a most interesting (but less talked-about) WWII-era a/c that was designed and built under the shadow of the legendary Douglas DC-3/C-47 and flew 5 years after the DC-3. Though, the C46 Commando served, in the military, in the same role as the C-47 Skytrain; for civilian pax transport, in spite of being twin-engine…

First I wanted to end this flight in Halifax, but then, after a refueling stop over there, I enjoyed flying here so much that I thought I could go on to Newfoundland and St. John’s Approaching Newport South of Boston I have reached Halifax Ok, I guess you know, what’s coming now 😉 I have finally reached Newfoundland And into St. John’s Thanks for viewing

I cannot even see the state outlines where I am currently at... And believe I could fly coast to coast here in the USA and not see the ground except for TO and APR. And check out these headwinds toward the end of a planned Hjet flight from St Louis to Denver:

A few stills from my next video. Does it get any better?

I bought it along with Toronto and got the discount.

Norwegian recistance fighter Max Manus of WWII. In 1940, in a Europe ravaged by war, Max Manus after having fought with the finnish army against the russians, returns to his country occupied by the word not allowed. He seeks to join the norwegian recistance but is captured by the gestapo. After successfully escaping them, he joined the recistance and left for Scotland where he received special training before being sent back to Norway. The fight is organized against the enemy thanks to sabotage operations against german ships. Max Manus will become a legendary hero by organizing the most important sabotage operation ever carried out: destroying the ship SS Donau, sym…

I love the Cabri . You fly low and slow with a large view over the landscape. A must to look closer to landmarks but also to appreciate the finesse of the terrain and how man made the most of it. PS no mispelling in the title, just a pun Brazil in stormy Amazon (Manaus) Western Turkey. Look how humans tucked themselves in the narrow valley Western China or how to get the most of a challenging terrain Pakistan (on the road to Aghanistan) Italy Greece Mainland Karpathos island I flew around the island, wonderful sights !

Made me smile.

It was a nice flight, Even ATC worked.... Into the Pattern at Sedona Hope you enjoyed the flight. Ed

I'm an avid reader of European comics, and Tintin is one of the classics. I was recently rearranging some stuff in the house and came across a little aircraft model based on the Tintin comics of a Tiger Moth that played a role in the album 'the Black Island', with the detectives getting airborne without a proper pilot, and crashing after a series of stunts. tintin tiger by JanKees Blom, on Flickr tintin tiger 2 by JanKees Blom, on Flickr so I thought, why not paint it? I looked up the registration, and it turns out it was a real aircraft as well! So here is G-AIRJ: G-AIRJ (0004) by JanKees Blom, on Flickr G-AIRJ (0003) by JanKees Blom, on Fli…

As the result of correspondence between two armourers of No. 4 Servicing Unit at Ondonga, on New Georgia in the Solomon Islands, and a pen-friend who was a tuberculosis patient at Christchurch Hospital in New Zealand named Gloria Lyons, it was decided to adopt her as a unit mascot. At that time 4 (SU) aircraft carried code letters, so one P-40N-1, NZ3148 coded 'G', was duly christened 'Gloria Lyons', and this name was painted on the lower engine cowls.

Hi simmers 😃 First winterflight with the Concorde, departure at KDTW.. cheers 😉

This flight was from a couple of weeks ago. I had FSLTL running and just sat there watching them take off and land.

Flight from Bergen To Trondheim.

ETF Airways is an airline that was founded in 2020 and started in 2021. It operates charter flights. My flight was from Prague Vaclav Havel To Pristina Kosovo.

While it is freezing here in the upper northern hemisphere, virtual flying around at tropical islands is an upmost contrast. Thanks to the sublime Add from Bijan 'boats, animals, rocks, huts' there is so much to discover, especially when boarding a yacht, a sailboat or a low flight over the water. And in some places are whales making jumps and V-shaped bunch of goose passes you. So yes, MSFS is not only a place to fly but also to ship around nice sceneries.
