Thanks to ORBX freebie airport SIJY in southern Brazil, I now have a nice place to spend the holidays. Not only is it a good GA airfield in an interesting, warm part of the world, It has community of homes complete with private hangers surrounding it. There is even a private lake with dock to land your amphibian. Feel free to drop by, have a cold one in the hanger and watch the football.

Hi simmers 😃 DoF with two FBW A320 - enjoy ! cheers 😉

Paint by 'Jaydor'.

What a front profile. 🙂

A couple of Wellington AP NZ pics. Cheers (still in lockdown...and now with a curfew)

The luminous light was really good under the grey sky . I also liked the lake shores, had really the feeling to land in the proverbial middle of nowhere.

Just 2 Enjoy!

Mountains are fascinating...I was fortunate, decades ago, to, once, catch sights of the majestic Himalayan ranges, from a visit to Kathmandu... This past week, while looking (virtually) around NZ-SI scenery, a bit, I'd come across Mt. Cook, so, I wished to pay one more visit to this remarkable mountain. Regarding my choice of plane for this post, the PA28-140 Cherokee, along with its cousins Archer and Arrow, have been all highly regarded as staple a/c for pilot training, and are considered great for learning to fly...in the RW...! So, today, in the library, when, I came across, a freeware Piper Cherokee variation, curiously, fitted with floats, I wished to merge thi…

Just 4 Enjoy!

Zurich... Btw, the mismatched paint lines on the BA A320N are on the real-thing too! Thanks for commenting, Darryl

Small (or extra-small) and big (or extra-big) airports are all unique in their respective ways...in RW...or in our SIM. It's truly fascinating to be able to (virtually) visit not only the smallest (and scenic) airfields, e.g. a tiny airstrip somewhere, in Southern California, but, also, the big and busy international airports like e.g. Dubai (OMDB)...see below...! I'd previously (virtually) visited (and posted about) a small Brazilian Airport Joinville (SBJV), with a 5,000 ft runway, and, a couple of cargo and pax docking stations etc.. The airport was seen consisting of old-fashioned terminal buildings and roofing, but, nonetheless, displayed its own (characteristic) old…

Hi simmers 😃 Air India 747-8 coming in to KJFK - hope you can enjoy the pics.. cheers 😉

Had a flight up the coast from LDPL in the Grravel, and arrived at LJPZ, just round from Trieste. Planned to come back and continue the trip and fly round the coast to Venice, but then thought it micght be nice to take a little cruise first. In the nautical sense, that is. This is one of the vessels in the Controllable Ships Fleet (https://flightsim.to/file/18668/controllable-ships-fleet), the Dannebrog. Unfortunately, no wake effects on these yet, but still fun and great for a bit of scenery gawping. More and more options to let us enjoy the world in the sim. Bring 'em on! Another Martini, Moneypenny?

Years ago, I was flying the Airbus planes (318/319/320/321), mostly from Aerosoft, quite regularly, as often as I would be flying the PMDG/iFly 737NGs. Somehow, after the years of break from SIM, when I resumed, I never got back into flying these jets much. In recent months, I've occasionally flown (and also posted) about PMDG/iFly 737 NGs, but, I don't recall having flown any Airbus in recent memory. I like flying the Airbus SIMs...I've recently made a couple of posts about e.g. the early A300/A310 variants, and, have periodically (but regularly) enjoyed flying the SimCheck A300B4. After all, the history of Airbus planes is as fascinating, as that of the Boeing, tho…

Was looking at the new Tomcat, like the look of it but holding off for now (trying to develop some self restraint), and also saw the payware carrier so thought I'd try out Superspud's freeware one first. ( https://flightsim.to/file/4930/aircraft-carrier-uss-msfs-uk-mooring ) Seems more than adequate to me, in fact very impressive, like all his stuff. Plenty of explanations about locations etc, all the settings seem to have fake ICAO codes to make them easy to select and all show up on the world map. Definitely recomended. This sort of aircraft is not my favourite to fly, much happier in the Grravel and similar, so I'm not even going to attempt a landing. If you selec…

No CTD this time..
