The Milviz is well-known for the quality and authenticity of their SIM aircraft. And, their F-86 is one such wonderful plane to fly and experience. However, because of my "un-justified" inclination to not (frequently) fly military aircraft (And, I do own a few good ones...), I had completely forgotten that I'd indeed purchased the MilViz F86 nearly 5 years ago, but have not touched it in as many years (except, maybe, once or twice right after purchase). Today, in my Archive, I spotted it, along with its competent (and, may I add, rather "humorously" written) User Guide. It was great pleasure to just go through that document! It states: "We know that there are those o…

As this was my first visit to Mumbai I gave myself a water salute. 😎 To see the full flight in full sound and motion check here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgpnjWSQqDo

Flying Ant's great payware LSA, a very nicely priced 152 style aircraft, but in the LSA category. This flight was from Santa Rosa, CA in Sonoma county down to the San Jose metro area, which is quite nice for the Bay mudflats, San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose scenery.... Ant's aircraft default GPS is a Garmin 296, all one needs in an LSA.... John

Using Aerofly's default and Swiss Scenery and the free Ercoupe, Tomahawk and BD5 for Aerofly FS2.....

Thanks to the time and skills of AVSIM member Enko here she is: A Western Global MD-11, pictured at Shanghai. An excellent repaint. It seems patience pays off; I think I posted a request back in March or so. A polite bump up the forum each month and here we are. THANK YOU ENKO! According to Western Global's site, they have visited Shanghai, and also Perth. To that end, I going to take this big girl on a flight between the two places and of course post up some screenies too

I love this new sim, the fresh look and the stunning performance. It has a simple interface, not a lot of bells and whistles, but fun flying.... I had been meaning to get it but needed room and got it by moving P3DV4 to my SSD drive and installing Aerofly FS2 on my hard drive in the space left vacant by P3DV4. John

Due to many reasons, the Russian Aircraft, from the aviation perspective, are always fascinating, primarily because they have been, generally, not so well-known in the Western world - until they (gradually) started appearing at many Western airports (to the delight of Aviation fans and observers) - e.g. the largest and heaviest, the Russian An-225, has been a regular visitor to many (foreign) ports of call on cargo and humanitarian missions. The one memory that lingers in my mind, was the impressive sight, from an observer's viewpoint, of an (approaching) IL-76, with its distinctive smoke trails behind it. The Russian aircraft have their own unique interesting characteris…

Shalom and greetings all my pals, Presenting a darn simple approach and landing to runway 23L of EBLG Liège Airport the 8th biggest cargo airport in Europe and the 22nd biggest in the world that is located 5 nautical miles west of Liège in southern Belgium On final runway approach to runway 23L Seconds before touchdown TOUCHDOWN producing awesome tire smoke Front landing gear gliding down slowly to make runway contact Front wheels making contact on ground producing more tire smoke Don't you love LOTS of tire smoke? Reverse thrusters slowing down the plane Getting …

Showing off two inexpensive payware aircraft, VSkylab's Gyroplane for Xplane11, and Ant's Eaglet for P3DV4 and earlier sims. Both locations are Nirvana for me--Napa, where I was raised, and Neuschwanstein, near Fussen Germany, the inspiration for the Disney castles and also prominently featured in the movie "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang", a song of which was always a crowd pleaser during my Gospel choir's concerts when I was a young boy and teen. We were based out of Napa and included secular, as well as sacred music, for our concertgoers. I have an mp3 of a vinyl album we recorded made by Jeff Smith, our secular guitarist and always the favorite of all of us. He sang many…

I think this is during my cargo flight from Liege to Beijing (ZBAA)

Not Mt Rainer but the Carbon Cub - Orbx TEWashington. Departed Swanson airport near Eatonville, WA.

Amsterdam - Manchester

Visibility might be more than 20 miles... once you've got under that clag! Must try harder to get my landings on that centreline! (Full disclosure: I'm not a real pilot, least of all for the fine & mighty MD-11! 😄 ) Time for tea and biscuits!

I love this TBM!

In Italy, there is a stretch if you fly east from Bolzano where the Alps just grow in majesty, as you pass Cortina and approach the Austrian border. This part of Italy is bilingual, much of it, with signs in German and Italian and the two cultures blend there in Tyrolean gaiety and humor, as I have often witnessed traveling thru the area. I remember when two girls from Bolzano were flirting with me and my friend, a policeman, and asked us for a kiss--me a bit too shy to kiss them, thinking they were just teasing us but they actually meant it. Being Italian I knew it best, lol, not to marry an Italian girl, I'd feel like I was marrying my sister, so I married out of tha…

Hey Folks, Recently installed Orbx HD Buildings and loving them when flying low and slow 🙂 Much improved over the origionals. Cheers

Although Fresno Air Terminal is the closest airport with airline service into Yosemite, for simmers, Mariposa airport is the closest. From there, one simply flies E/NE, inbound to Yosemite. I prefer flying in an aircraft like the Drifter, since once you are over Yosemite valley it is a great platform for screenshots and VFR flight, plus it has the "ooomph" to make it over the high country east of the valley. In real life I was only in the park once, in the late fall, so the tallest waterfalls were not working. I hiked there, parking my car, and remember the deer ten feet away from me looking at me, and me looking at them. Fortunately I did not get kissed by them…
