So far, so disappointing. I know it's early access, and I definitely need to re-discover how to do a lot of stuff in XP (get all my controllers mapped properly again etc), but my first impressions are that it looks nothing like as slick as the demo videos I've seen previously. Not that I'm hugely surprised by that, as it seems to be an industry norm, but it doesn't feel any different to my XP 11 setup. In fact on first glance it feels like a bit of a backward step. But we'll see. I wasn't going to go for it initially, figuring I'd wait a while for something nearer finished, but I went back and looked at a few of the teaser videos and let myself be persuaded. I was always …

Departing from EDDW To EKYT.

Another magnificent flight in Alaska. I departed from PAWD Seward for a short hop over to KEB Nanwalek, only around 100nm. The choice of aircraft was not the wisest I discovered when I tried to squeeze the Cessna 414 into the 1850 ft (564 m) runway at Nanwalek. Somehow I managed to get her down safely. But how to get out?

Hi simmers 😃 Todays flight with an Eastern Connie.. cheers 😉

A Little Bit of B&W, A Little Bit of Color...the Paris Orly Edition Yes I know that Air France's aircraft are usually dirty but I prefer the clean version... Hopefully you enjoyed these pictures, your commentary is always appreciated...Darryl

[I have not flown this BizJet in a very long while, but I was reminded of it via an (all-black) livery of it by Matt L, that I came across today in the library. The a/c (see images below), carrying Reg. (VH-AFP), belongs to the Australian Federal Police.] The Hawker 850XP is the final derivative of the world’s longest running corporate jet production program and the best-selling business jet of all the times – the British designed DH.125. Conceived and developed more than 60 years ago by the de Havilland Aircraft Company, the twinjet, originally called DH.125, had entered production as (Hawker Siddeley) HS.125 in 1962. When Hawker Siddeley Aircraft merged with t…

Hi simmers 😃 Connie L-1049 Constellation - the dynamic lady.. cheers 😉

First of all, it's worth noting that the Freighters (or Freight Dogs, as they are sometimes called) are, so to speak, the unsung heroes of aviation. Whether it's a (small) Piper Cub carrying lifesaving essential goods in the Alaskan or Canadian wilderness, or it's a super-heavy 777F/747-8F/330F freighter flying across the Globe and high above the vast Atlantic or Pacific, transporting cargo to far-off destinations, they are all performing vital services...without the fanfare and publicity associated with their pax counterparts. Due to their mission-critical roles, it's the freighters (or freighter segments) that could withstand the severe (business) impact of the pandemic…

Okay, the title is a little bit clickbait-y. This is Air China 1215, daily service from Beijing to Kashgar, an ancient silk road city. This flight will take us across China and the deserts of Inner Mongolia, Gansu, and Xinjiang. Join as at Beijing Capital Airport, where we begin boarding at gate C33 ahead of our 7:05am departure: We've got a good passenger and cargo load, and fueled up for this 5-hour flight we are bumping right up against our MTOW of 79,300kg as we enter 18L for Departure: Takeoff and Climbout from Beijing Capital: Over the Yan Mountains, the landscape becomes much more arid: Crossing …

Departing of LUX to BRQ then BRQ to XRY.

Inspired by I saw this post and remembered I had a copy of the Convair at one point. Couldn't remember if I'd converted it to MSFS or not but knew I'd got some pix somewhere. After a bit of digging I found them, all dated 2018 sometime so probably P3D v4 I'd guess. So a bit old, but a fun aircraft. I've never seen any pix of the interior of this but I would hope it was gloriously tacky. El is heading off to Salt Lake City for a one-off special at the Tabernacle Hall, taking a break from his Vegas season. Thang yew, thang yew, Layez n' genllmen, Elvis has left the airplane!

Today my flightplan is EHAM/LEMH.
