Got back from spring break and decided to take a flight. The plane was a little boring, but I had never flown in an A340 on FS9 so here it is:

Forgot I had updated Bangkok Intl with a scenery add-on and was quite surprised to see some nice graphics here. Unfortunately, there weren't many birds on the ground on this Sunday morning.

Push back to runway 3L at about 11:30 AM

Climbing to cruise altitude, FL335:

After cruising over Thailand for awhile at FL335 i got the call to descend about 110 miles out from Vietnam:

Hello Vietnam!

It's time for some sightseeing in good 'ole Vietnam! Excellent!

Yea, the 340 is an awesome aircraft, except in FS9 it's pretty boring. The graphics were a little blurry (i don't get that on my other aircraft) and there are absolutely no wing views, VC, etc. It was a pretty easy plane to fly, however. Managed to nail her right on the center line for touchdown. =]

Vagrant,

go to www.fsdome.com. ; Click on "newest files". as of yesterday it was still on page one, but may've slipped to page 2.

It was actually meant for AI Traffic, but it is flyable and it's okay. My only complaint was that it was a little blurry. I may not have the best system to run FS9 (just a laptop), but I have taken some pretty clear shots before.

Hope that helps, and happy flying!
