Another day another destination. After a night and day in Johannesburg, South Africa it was time to leave for Hong Kong.

Its 4 PM and we are beginning our taxi to 3L for departure.

Roaring into the sunset.

Cruising at 37500 feet and catching the last rays of sun.

Decending to 10500 feet about 50 miles out.

The tower clears us to land on 7R while we battle a rather strong crosswind. Its been a long 12 hours and everyone is ready to get off and go to their homes, hotels, and other locations.

Its 10:20 AM I'm heading for a day of exploring and then its off to another unknown destination.

My trip so far:

Detroit to Frankfurt
Frankfurt to Johannesburg
Johannesburg to Hong Kong

To see from the start.

Good guess it happened to be Sydney. I just finished the flight about an hour ago. I will have to post the shots tommarow do to some internet problems with the other computer.

As for where i got the plane. It was at avsim. Its an FSpainters model. this was a repaint package of 6 liveries. Im not sure if you have to have the original model or not. If so just look up Airbus Wide Bodies. there are several other airbus models included. Its also for FS2002 for the repaints.
